These names were taken from Wikipedia and are of musicians from all over the world. It is important that people note that music is not just a United States thing. It is amazing to see the number of people in other countries whose love was of jazz or rock or country music. Please take a moment to remember them as true brothers and sisters of the soul. And please don’t forget our own Colorado musicians Daryl “Lee” Bagby and Dr. L. Scott Martin who loved Colorado and its people so much that they moved here from other states.
