Harry Chapin
Check out Mr. Tanner which I've linked below, and watch out for bass player "Big" John Wallace.
If you enjoy it then I urge you to listen to "Greatest Stories Live" by Harry; one of the best live albums (in my opinion of course) you'll ever hear.

Jackie Leven.
If Jackie had been taken at 99 years old it would still have been too soon. This was the first song of his I ever heard.

I make no apologies for the length (8 mins 30 secs) of this next clip. I think the intro gives you a pretty good feel for Jackie.

Freddie Mercury.
Bent as a four pound note - but what a showman.
Queen died when Freddie passed away.

Re: Unsung Heroes
Many people probably wont agree with me but I am a big fan of Trent Reznor and his work. His work both solo and within his band Nine Inch Nails comes across as sincere and very forward thinking. In my opinion both 'The Fragile' and his soundtrack for 'The Social Network' are fantastic.
