Dead Musicians Get Their Own Cemetery on the Internet

Posted on October 30, 1998

Music.com, a new website for and about music and related lifestyles, is unveiling a "Cemetery" section on its site Friday. Designated as a place for visitors to pay last respects to late musicians such as Jim Morrison, Jerry Garcia, Frank Zappa and Cass Elliott, the site features eulogies, information and background on where the musicians are buried as well as a "where would they be now" section dedicated to musicians who met their demise prematurely.

"We wanted to honor and pay tribute to all the great musicians who made an impact on the music world," said Theresa Czarnecki, creative director at Music.com. "We believe visitors to the site will be very intrigued by what they'll find."
