Singer Amy Winehouse joins group of musicians who died tragically at 27

The music world lost one of its young stars over the weekend when Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London home. The singer was known for her unique vocal style and unapologetic rock star lifestyle.  Winehouse was 27-years-old, the same age many of music’s legends said goodbye to us far too early. They are known as the “27 Club” and they include Brian Jones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain. Eric Segalstad, is the author of “The 27s: The Greatest Myth of Rock & Roll,” talks about Amy Winehouse’s place among that illustrious and tragic group of rock legends.
