Pete Ham from Badfinger should replace Staley from AIC.

Definitely Michael Hutchence. Can you imagine where they would be right now?

Stuart Adamson from Big Country should be here somewhere. Frankie Lymon, Shannon Hoon (Blind Melon) and Jeff Healy, too.

Thanks,DT.

I would also include Stevie Ray Vaughn, if you go by his work in Double Trouble.

Technically he was never their frontman but rather guitarist and founding member.

Incidently his death will be re-examined 40 years later..

Also, Dave Peverett of Foghat, which came in the same era as Thin Lizzy.
