I’m a sixty four year old senior citizen. This video brought back memories. I remember how freaked out everyone was about the deaths of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and especially Janis Joplin. Since I was a fan of their music (and an impressionable kid) my parents had to lecture me about drug abuse after each tragedy. God Bless My Parents for keeping me grounded in reality instead of seduced by the tragic fantasy.
@Virginia and Violet Dreams ….. I am now 73 years old and distinctly remember the shock reverberations when Janis Joplin, Brian Jones and particularly Amy Winehouse died. Tragic and preventable losses which must have devastated their respective families and friends. Rest In Peace to all of these wonderfully talented people. Very sad.. 💐💐💐
I'm 48. My parents had this stuff playing all the time. But they actually talked about why they died, so I passed on that attitude to my boys...to my Iraqi hubby's shock. And girl, 64 is NOT a senior. You are young baby
I loved that you went to the effort of making a mention of Pamela, Jim Morrison’s partner. She was never famous in her own right but I can’t think of a more tragically ironic story

@@basquehound1999 I feel weird, because I know Korean names are complicated for non-Koreans or people who aren’t familiar with them. 😅 To make it easier though, sometimes they hyphenate the name. Ex: Jong-Hyun or my Korean name, Seo-Yeon. I’m glad you were cool with this, because we get dismissed with “whatever.” ♥️
I'm so glad you included Mia Zapata. Although all the deaths featured in this video were tragic, hers hit me particularly hard- not just because I was a fan of The Gits, but the circumstances of her murder. After her death, many in Seattle's music community, including Nirvana & Pearl Jam, came together in a benefit concert to raise funds to hire a private detective when the case went cold. Her death also led to a movement to empower women to learn self-defense in a program called Home Alive. When Joan Jett learned of her murder & that funds had run out for the private detective, donated money & went on tour with the remaining members of The Gits to raise more funds. Mia's murderer was convicted a decade later. He didn't even know who she was. He died in prison last year.
I never thought in a million years you would include Rico Yan. He was like Valentino here in 2002. Gone too soon and would have been still relevant had he lived longer. Thank you, from the Philippines.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PAYING TRIBUTE TO JONGHYUN! I’m over here thinking he wasn’t going to be featured, but when he came up, my heart started racing. We Shawols, SHINee fans, still miss him terribly and pay tribute to him on Dec. 18th every year. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

my sister always loved watching your videoes she passed away last year and i will watch them in remembence of her but not only that i love watching graves of famous people thank you stay safe
I grew up in Aberdeen Washington and lived two houses down from Kurt's memorial park. Thank you for showing the beautiful banks of the Wishkah (wish-kaw) River. As much as he hated Aberdeen, like the rest of who grew there did, he was a huge influence on so many artists then and now. May his screams live on in the hearts of those who loved him.
I am positively addicted to these videos but not in a creepy way. They are extremely informative and you treat each person and their biography with so much respect.
So touching 😢 that his Mom cleans his grave site and puts fresh 💐 flowers there. My Brother died , my Mother did the same. thing. She would say that ,she always thought of him. The only time she wasn't sad, was when she went to play bingo or bowling. It's so sad when one if your child dies before you.
Jonghyun! I didn’t think he would’ve been mentioned but it was nice to see. It’s been almost 5 years without our shining bling bling. We all miss him and his voice dearly💔. Thank you for including him. Rip to the other amazing artists,singers,actors and rappers who all tragically died a such a young age.
I’m only 20 but grew up on 50s-80s music and I love it. I wish I could’ve got to see so many artists live in performance but I’ve gotten to see a few- Santana, WAR, & Earth,wind,fire.
I believe Jim Morrison's long time partner and cosmic mate Pamela Courson also tragically died at 27 too. Brian and Jim both died 2 years to the day apart. I've always been fascinated by the 27 club and this video is amazing.
I have to say this is probably one of your best videos to date. Your research is well done, the narrative is very informative, and your compassion is so moving. Many on this list died because of their bad choices. It's easy to say, "Well, there goes another rock n roll druggie/suicide/waste of talent," but when I hear about their lives, their talents, and their stories in this video, I came away with a profound sadness. And we should always remember that there is a family who mourned each and every one of them.
Thank you for mentioning Jade Goody!, She did a lot to raise awareness of Cervical Cancer, and l think possibly many woman are alive today because of her.. A wonderful vlog spoken clearly, consisely and not rushed through as many are. Thanks a UK fan ... ....
Thank you for this and especially for showing Pete Ham. I was a HUGE Badfinger fan and thwir songs fill my heart with joy yet thwir story was sooo sad and tragic
Thank you so much for covering Johnathan Brandis I loved him so much I was a massive fan for years. His death still haunts and upsets me. I wish he knew how much he mattered to fans like me
I love this channel so much, not only is it respectful, the research and information provided brings everything together making you want to watch it even if you don't know everyone. Massive respect.
I watched a video a couple of years back where they showed Anton Yelchin in one of his final roles walking through Hollywood Forever cemetery and you can see the very spot where his memorial now stands in the background. It was filmed a year or less before his death. Really haunting.
I don't know why sometimes it's so draining watching the videos from this channel. Don't get me wrong, I love this channel so much, that's why I still watch them up to this day. Even when the cheerful background music is played, I still can't hold my tears... That Pete Ham's birthday was the same as my son's birthday (April 27th). RIP Pete Ham. I don't even know you personally, but I believe you're a really kind and gentle soul...
I'm 26 and play the ukulele, picolo and bassoon. And as I know those instruments are going to rocket me to stardom, i'm not touching them again until I turn 28! KIDDING! Arthur, you researched deep and well. Thank you for this wonderful tribute!
This might sound a little strange, but it always bothers me when I don't see any acknowledgment, no matter how small written on a headstone, if they were an actor, actress, singer, author, etc... And what really upsets me is when some people don't even have a head stone, just left totally empty. Forgotten as if they never existed.
Once again a terrific program. As a lifelong "Deadhead" I appreciate you including Ron McKernan. He was a gifted musician with that bluesy voice. His background was "black" music as they called it. No slight intended. Ronnie's father was a DJ in San Francisco and played the so called black music. Ronnie was so influenced by the blues. Even knew some folks thanks to his Dad. There used to be a radio show called "Blues before Sunrise". Old blues. I could have seen Ronnie hosting a show like that in his later years while between tours of The Grateful Dead. I wasn't old enough to see Ronnie playin in the band. He was simply Just gifted. Really a shame. Thanks again.
My dad made guitars for Keith Richards back in the day. I was always fascinated with my dad’s history with music. He told me a story when I was a teen that he asked Kieth about Brian “what happened with jones?” All Kieth said was “they killed him.” He left it at that
Somehow Keith Richards did not join the 27 club , to my amazement he could possibly make the 87 club , liquor, cigarettes and drugs fractured skulls and still going
Thank you for adding in the Shinee member from South Korea. He was an amazing music artist and he was one of the people I loved from the show today. Also, Thuy Trang because I am a huge Power Ranger Fan. All of the people today were especially wonderful in all they did and I thank you for sharing this video! You did an amazing job with it.
This guy (Artur) is seriously underrated person. His narrating skills, production quality and research of informations are simply incredible! His videos are pure quality, elegance and emotion. Thanks, man!
Sincerely, that makes YOU the real rockstar, ya know what I mean? You obviously are strong, and positively charged, diligent in life, etc... And you have outlived, and survived twice over, those "rockstars" ..,. Kudos, my friend!🎉❤❤❤
Chumika nga agad ako sa comment section. Sabi ko may Pinoy celebrity rin na namatay sa edad na 27, si Rico Yan nga. Tapos sa bandang huli ng video, nagulat ako nung nakita ko yung grave ni Rico. Hahaha! Courtesy of Master Gala.
I got to meet Jim Morrison's family. His dad was my patient in 2006 at Balboa Navy Hospital, San Diego. I was a Navy Corpsman. His dad was real nice and cordial. The whole family was as sweet as can be.
So many good memories of young talents who left too soon. For some reason Anton Yelchin always causes a huge pang of sadness for me. Informative and respectful as usual Arthur.
Thank you for including one of the dear loved matinee idol in the Philippines gone too soon, Rico Yan. I remember the tragic news during summer of that year he died. It was such a tragic news during that time. More power Arthur to your channel.
As one of your Filipino subs, I thank you Mr. Arthur Dark, for featuring not just one of the country's biggest matinee idols, but also one of the biggest stars of the 90s, Rico Yan. Yes, I still remember how his sudden passing was ALL OVER the news at that time...and that some people thought that his cause of death was a "nightmare" (or as locals call it "bangungot"). I, alongside other of your Filipino subs, am hoping you can come here to the Philippines, as we have SO MANY famous graves here, not just Rico, but also other entertainment and sports personalities, as well as Heroes, National Artists/Scientists, and even former Presidents!
It’s been said that you don’t die until no one remembers you. All of these people deserve to be remembered. Thank you for allowing their lives to continue postmortem.
I am a fan of your channel and you're one of my reason why I became a taphophile. But other than that, I truly appreciate you that you made it to the Philippines and made a video about this former famous young actor named Rico Yan. He was an amazing actor and lots of filipinos were devastated when he passed away. I thank you for doing that.
I absolutely LOVE this channel. It's the amazing amount of info you give on the deceased. This should be on a large TV Network. Thank you so so much for the many hours you spend in research.
I'm from The Philippines and I've Watched Master Gala..since 4 month ago..Thank You so much for including the matinee idol from 1990s..Rico Yan..I was still very sad about his passing and back in 2002 after his death..he was visited by many of his fans.. Thank You Again, Arthur and hopefully wanted to see more of visiting famous individuals..been a subscriber for 2 years now..have a good day, my friend
What a great tribute! A few of my favorite singers and musicians are members of the 27 club like Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Pigpen McKernan, Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson, Pete Ham, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, and Amy Winehouse.
I saw Jim Morrison’s grave on my first trip to Paris in 1991. There were people just hanging out there, ALL day. They just literally sit at his grave. That was way before they put up that fence. I was really shocked 😳 when I saw that!!
I wish I could visit his grave as morbid as that might sound. I’ve been a Doors fan for roughly 50 years. My pops was a DJ on the side and brought me home albums all the time as a little kid. One was The Doors first album. He liked Light My Fire. Turned out I loved the whole album. So I ended up eventually getting all their albums then cassettes then CD’s. I even had one 8 track🤣. Being a mid 60’s baby it’s almost impossible not to be.
Thanks for making this, Arthur! So much budding talent lost to the 27 Club. As a kid, I loved the original Power Rangers and remember Thuy Trang being one of the first celebrity deaths that really hit me. Sadly reunited just this past week with green and white co-star Jason David Frank.
The story of Jade really got me and brought tears to my eyes. I didn't know her or her story but you made it a perfect telling of a life taken way too soon. That scene of her with her family sitting on the hillside hit me deeply. Drugs/alcohol and moving vehicles... What a waste of these lives. Still, “The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.” ― Lao Tzu, Te Tao Ching.
Hollywood graveyard is one of the best things on RUclips. Arthur darks compassion for his subjects, his wonderful voice and the beautiful music all with that great timing he creates in post Is completely hypnotic. Bravo Arthur. Always looking forward to the next Hollywood graveyard.
I know this isn't Hollywood or famous people, but have you ever thought about a tour through the cemeteries of Halifax, Nova Scotia to show the graves of the people lost on the Titanic? I know there are a LOT of them there!
I'm glad you remembered " *Pete Ham* ". He was a very talented singer/ songwriter/ guitarist/pianist. *Thank God The Beatles discovered "Badfinger* " with *Pete Ham , Tom Evans, Joey Molland* and *Mike Gibbins* . They gave us so many great song! Pete should've never taken his life. Things would've worked out later. The same for Tom Evans, who also took his life in 1983. I got to meet "Tom Evans" at a Night Club in "Bridgeport, Ct back in 1981. Great chap!
I adore every one of your videos, but I've found this one particularly superb. Loved the way the theme ties together so many stars and countries. Brilliant, Arthur.
Arthur, you never keep amassing us with your productions. As sad as this episode was it was brilliant tribute to all of those who left us way too soon. Keep up the magnificent work!!!
I LOVE this channel and I loved this video. I've been to Jim Morrison's grave, an experience I won't ever forget, not just Jim's grave, but that whole cemetery, incredible place. Thanks for sharing this, I can't wait for your next video :)
Thank you so much for this Arthur, but even more importantly, Thank you for including those who were cremated and had no markers or headstones, I know you normally don't include them as they have nothing to visit but for this special episode you made an exception and I for one am glad you did. Maybe when you do another video, maybe keep mentioning them and instead of showing markers, you can do like this one and show bodies of water when mentioning those whose ashes were scattered at sea or a forest or wooden area for those scattered around trees or parks or even those who were creamted and their family members still have their ashes in urns. Thank you again for all you do.
Wow, I did not realize there were that many members of this club. I remember in the early 70's visiting Jimi Hendrix's grave and it was just his headstone the said "Forever in our hearts"
Friends of Robert Johnson said that before he made that deal as he claimed that he was “absolutely horrible & couldn’t play a single note” No one could explain how he became so great in such a short time. It will be a legend that will live forever.
James Marshall, Boon, Basquiat, KURDT, Pfaff, Zapata, Winehouse.... You covered so of my all time favorite artists and show that no matter how long gone!!... they're never forgotten! Thank u for ur piece!!🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘🍻🍻🍻🍻
Such a shame, so young and talented, may they all rest in peace. ❤️ Thank you again Arthur for sharing the Pete Ham tribute, brilliantly done as always. Wonderfully informative and respectful 27 Club tribute.❤️
Thank u for a nice tribute, to the 27 club. Some I grew up listening to in the 60s, and I loved Amy Winehouse. She, like Janis Joplin, san from their very soul. My favorite song by AW, was Valerie. RIP 27s, and Danny Keough. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah & Happy Kwanzaa, as well.🕊🌹✝️❄
Best video you’ve done! The 27 club was always sad but hit me hardest when Kurt Cobain & Kristen Pfaff died, they were only a year or 2 younger than me. RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oddly enough both had connections to Courtney Love. I still say she had Kurt killed. Because he was going to divorce her. The documentary Soaked in Bleach points it out! Thank you for doing this video!
Although I don't think he released or recorded any music, Benjamin Keough also died at 27. His grandfather was arguably the most famous singer in the world.
Yes, he is also part of the 27 Club. Famous grandfather, famous grandmother, famous mother (for her parents and her marriage to Michael Jackson anyway).
Thank you so much for including D Boon. I saw The Minutemen many times back in the day and it means a lot that you included him. His was a profound loss to those of us in the LA/Long Beach/San Pedro area.
Thanks so much for a wonderful tribute. Way back when I turned 27, I thought about Brian, Jimi, Janis and Jim and hoped I would survive the deadly age. (Spoiler alert: I did ) And another thing I have in common with you besides graveyards and Reese’s cups, my favorite Doors song is also “People Are Strange.” Thanks again!
Before turning 27, besides thinking of Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendricks, and Janis Joplin mainly to name a few, I was almost so sure I was gonna go with them at that age. But according to my spoiler, I made it past that age too. The same year I turned 27 is the year of my sobriety date from alcohol, in 2010. Unfortunately I relapsed with drugs only in2015, but cleaned up my mess right away in 2016. Im just glad to be alive and to be able to look at the 27 club, as an obstacle I managed to overcome alive.
I was so surprised when Rico Yan came up on this video, thank you Master Gala for sending the entry! I remember all the intrigue surrounding his death and how much of an impact he made when so many people paid their last respects to him. So young, he could have done so much more. Thank you as well for mentioning Jonghyun. He had one of the most unique voices in kpop and SHINee’s songs are still the best of the best ♥️
Absolutely amazing video! I've watched it twice already and it's amazing! I know this would be a VERY long video, but perhaps a suggestion of visiting the Graves of notable military personnel (ie Medal of Honor recipients, military presidents, and other notables) that impacted the turn of the continuous freedom and liberty that we, as Americans, are blessed to have every day.
Very well done documentary on the popular 27 death club. So many tragic stories that left so much talent behind for us to remember and reflect. Thank you ❤️🙏🏻🌹🌴
thank you for mentioning jonghyun, he was a beautiful soul and brought so much joy to shinee/kpop fans. he raised awareness for mental health, supported many communities like palestine/gaza and lgbtq+. my dog is named after him, he’s called moon because we refer to jonghyun as our moon🤍
Another excellent, high quality addition to your videos. So very informative, and as always, respectful. The background music pieces are really fantastic ( does anyone know what they are ?). For non-UK viewers, it's hard to describe just how famous Jade Goodie was from her first appearance on the TV show "Big Brother" until her death. And each of the people in this video were very popular in their own right, in their own time. As always, these videos remind me that we will all end up in the ground, so make use of your time to make meaningful relationshipss, help people, and enjoy yourself. Peace and love to everyone.
Badfinger are my favourite band. It brings me joy to see Pete Ham get some attention. His playing, singing and songwriting are incredible and fill me with such strong feelings when I listen.
Arthur thank you so much for including Jonghyun, I wanted to cry when I heard his name. He was and always will be an incredibly talented vocalist and a member of Shinee.
Thank you Arthur, etc. al., for a really interesting and informative video! Very professionally done, as always. Couldn't help noticing, however, that I was sad and depressed throughout, which I know is because these were all very young folks that hadn't really experienced life yet...
I wept. So many of their passings rocked me hard. Even though I'm far older than most of her fans, Amy Winehouse's passing broke me. As did Janis' so long ago. I think this is one of your very best videos.
In the opening of the Tim McGraw song How Bad Do You Want It, Tim sang about Robert Johnson. The beginning of the song lyrics are “Robert Johnson went to The Crossroads. So the legend goes. He went there with a guitar, and the devil took his soul”
I know the story. Cream,Eric Clapton's band sang about this in their song Crossroad. You can't actually sell your soul to the devil though. If you're lost you're already Satan's and wind up in hell on Judgment Day. If you are a Christian you belong to God and Satan can never have you.
Although I love every episode of your wonderful series, this is absolutely my favorite! Your knowledge about all the people of whom you speak is incredible!
honestly i love this channel.. as a Filipino thank you for feature our famous matinee idol Rock Yan he was famous back in those days.. i didn't know he was 27 when he passed away..
i know someone already said it, but thank you so so much for including jonghyun. that man was truly the most talented vocalist kpop has ever seen, and i will absolutely die on that hill. as a fan and someone who still grieves him now, that meant a lot to me. thank you.
I’m a sixty four year old senior citizen. This video brought back memories. I remember how freaked out everyone was about the deaths of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, and especially Janis Joplin.

Agree, thank God for parents who educate their children to walk the straight and narrow, drug free.
@Virginia and Violet Dreams ….. I am now 73 years old and distinctly remember the shock reverberations when Janis Joplin, Brian Jones and particularly Amy Winehouse died.
Tragic and preventable losses which must have devastated their respective families and friends.

Eerie that she died at the age of 27, just like Jim. May all those memorialized in this video rest in peace.
@@styx53ocean she couldn't go on once he died
@@aprilgosa5779 Not sure if the stories are true, but there were rumors that Jim OD'd on heroin Pam gave him.
@@aprilgosa5779 probably more right than anyone knows.
Its crazy. I'm 32 born in 1990 and outlived all of them. I'm thankful for every breath i take.
You know, there’s a 32 Club, too. Brian Epstein, Bruce Lee, Mama Cass, Karen Carpenter, Brittany Murphy etc.
@@jrbanano thats just a reach
I'm only 26... Well shit.
As a young 50 yr old, I was surprised the 27 club started so long ago. I thank my daddy so much for my passion of music and knowing the older ones.

Thanks for including Mia Zapata and Kristen Pfaff! they were both so talented but I think they get forgotten about.
I'm so glad you included Mia Zapata. Although all the deaths featured in this video were tragic, hers hit me particularly hard- not just because I was a fan of The Gits, but the circumstances of her murder. After her death, many in Seattle's music community, including Nirvana & Pearl Jam, came together in a benefit concert to raise funds to hire a private detective when the case went cold. Her death also led to a movement to empower women to learn self-defense in a program called Home Alive.

Mia's murderer was convicted a decade later. He didn't even know who she was. He died in prison last year.
I did not know she was interred at Cave Hill. I am glad her murderer was caught and convicted.
Kurt didn’t actually die. The body was actually of a homeless man.
I'm so glad to know that there's someone out there who knows who she is and all the details around her death besides myself and my husband.

I was 17 when Jim, Jimi, and Janis died. I've never forgotten that time. Thanks for doing this group of talented folks.
I believe they were murdered by the CIA. No evidence just a gut feeling.
Do you remember Alan Blind Owl Wilson’s passing a couple weeks before Jimi?
I am positively addicted to these videos but not in a creepy way. They are extremely informative and you treat each person and their biography with so much respect.
I went to Anton Yelchin's Grave and saw his mother sprucing up the grave with fresh flowers . Apparently she visits often. Great edition Arthur !!!!
Did you say anything to her or did you just leave her be?
@@ghunter182003 I attempted to pay my respects but she said I don’t talk so I said oh ok I’m sorry and walked away
So touching 😢 that his Mom cleans his grave site and puts fresh 💐 flowers there. My Brother died , my Mother did the same. thing. She would say that ,she always thought of him. The only time she wasn't sad, was when she went to play bingo or bowling. It's so sad when one if your child dies before you.
@@welles2002 Yes, this kind of grief can be selfish.🥴😕

There were so many tragic stories behind this club. Sad that so many talents were lost at such a young age. Thank you for sharing this.
I agree! Very sad!
Jonghyun! I didn’t think he would’ve been mentioned but it was nice to see. It’s been almost 5 years without our shining bling bling. We all miss him and his voice dearly💔. Thank you for including him. Rip to the other amazing artists,singers,actors and rappers who all tragically died a such a young age.
I’m still shaking! I’m glad other Shawols saw this!!
thinking about his death, i still feel haunted 😨
Out bby 😢🩵🪽
I’m only 20 but grew up on 50s-80s music and I love it. I wish I could’ve got to see so many artists live in performance but I’ve gotten to see a few- Santana, WAR, & Earth,wind,fire.
Thank you for honoring Jonathan Brandis 💕
I believe Jim Morrison's long time partner and cosmic mate Pamela Courson also tragically died at 27 too. Brian and Jim both died 2 years to the day apart. I've always been fascinated by the 27 club and this video is amazing.
Your correct she did die 2yrs later at 27
I have to say this is probably one of your best videos to date. Your research is well done, the narrative is very informative, and your compassion is so moving. Many on this list died because of their bad choices. It's easy to say, "Well, there goes another rock n roll druggie/suicide/waste of talent," but when I hear about their lives, their talents, and their stories in this video, I came away with a profound sadness. And we should always remember that there is a family who mourned each and every one of them.

Legends burn the brightest like a blaze of glory.❤
@sjduges67 ❤ BEAUTIFULLY SAID 🙏❤️
Thank you for mentioning Jade Goody!, She did a lot to raise awareness of Cervical Cancer, and l think possibly many woman are alive today because of her..
A wonderful vlog spoken clearly, consisely and not rushed through as many are. Thanks a UK fan ... ....
Excellent! I am obsessed with 27 Club
Love Morrison!
Love Hollywood Graveyard with the best voice in the business!
Thank you for this and especially for showing Pete Ham. I was a HUGE Badfinger fan and thwir songs fill my heart with joy yet thwir story was sooo sad and tragic
Thank you so much for covering Johnathan Brandis I loved him so much I was a massive fan for years. His death still haunts and upsets me. I wish he knew how much he mattered to fans like me
I know the feeling so well. I still watch SeaQuest to watch him.
But he wasn't in the neverending story. That was Barrett Oliver.
@@wendyyoung4544 True but he was in The Neverending Story 2.
@@wendyyoung4544 he played lady bugs too
Mental illness tells you that you are not lovable
I love this channel so much, not only is it respectful, the research and information provided brings everything together making you want to watch it even if you don't know everyone. Massive respect.
I watched a video a couple of years back where they showed Anton Yelchin in one of his final roles walking through Hollywood Forever cemetery and you can see the very spot where his memorial now stands in the background. It was filmed a year or less before his death. Really haunting.
It’s so tragic!! He had so much talent yet to share with the world!! Of course that is true with everyone on the video. ❤️
I don't know why sometimes it's so draining watching the videos from this channel. Don't get me wrong, I love this channel so much, that's why I still watch them up to this day. Even when the cheerful background music is played, I still can't hold my tears...
That Pete Ham's birthday was the same as my son's birthday (April 27th). RIP Pete Ham. I don't even know you personally, but I believe you're a really kind and gentle soul...
you are an empath, you feel others feelings
I always thought Robert Johnson was the first of the "27" club. Thank you for putting in so much research for this video.
Each video from this channel is a masterpiece itself.
Congratulations 👏
I'm 26 and play the ukulele, picolo and bassoon. And as I know those instruments are going to rocket me to stardom, i'm not touching them again until I turn 28! KIDDING! Arthur, you researched deep and well. Thank you for this wonderful tribute!
This might sound a little strange, but it always bothers me when I don't see any acknowledgment, no matter how small written on a headstone, if they were an actor, actress, singer, author, etc... And what really upsets me is when some people don't even have a head stone, just left totally empty. Forgotten as if they never existed.
Because they only care while they are alive and it benefits them. They don’t benefit them if they are dead
That’s not strange at all. That just means you have a beautiful spirit.
U make no sense
I feel the same way
Some were broke or no family left ...just happens but yeah that fame you'd think fans would fund somekind of memorial they do now
Once again a terrific program. As a lifelong "Deadhead" I appreciate you including Ron McKernan. He was a gifted musician with that bluesy voice. His background was "black" music as they called it. No slight intended. Ronnie's father was a DJ in San Francisco and played the so called black music. Ronnie was so influenced by the blues. Even knew some folks thanks to his Dad. There used to be a radio show called "Blues before Sunrise". Old blues. I could have seen Ronnie hosting a show like that in his later years while between tours of The Grateful Dead. I wasn't old enough to see Ronnie playin in the band. He was simply Just gifted. Really a shame. Thanks again.
My dad made guitars for Keith Richards back in the day. I was always fascinated with my dad’s history with music. He told me a story when I was a teen that he asked Kieth about Brian “what happened with jones?”
All Kieth said was “they killed him.” He left it at that
I believe it, that’s awesome your dad made guitars for them I bet you’ve heard other interesting tales throughout the years one can only imagine
Somehow Keith Richards did not join the 27 club , to my amazement he could possibly make the 87 club , liquor, cigarettes and drugs fractured skulls and still going
@@hunglikeafruitfly6722 Keith cannot be killed by conventional methods. I believe he has been around for hundreds of years.
I believe it. I had a friend that was a friend of his and he basically said the same thing your Dad did and added a few things.
It was allegedly a guy doing construction on Brian’s home. He beat him up & left him to drown in the pool
Thank you for adding in the Shinee member from South Korea. He was an amazing music artist and he was one of the people I loved from the show today. Also, Thuy Trang because I am a huge Power Ranger Fan. All of the people today were especially wonderful in all they did and I thank you for sharing this video! You did an amazing job with it.
This guy (Artur) is seriously underrated person. His narrating skills, production quality and research of informations are simply incredible! His videos are pure quality, elegance and emotion. Thanks, man!
@@ladonna4685 I agree. This one was maybe the best.
I'm almost 60 , I remember alot of these deaths. Brought back alot of memories of some very talented and beautiful people....🙏❤
Sincerely, that makes YOU the real rockstar, ya know what I mean?
You obviously are strong, and positively charged, diligent in life, etc...
And you have outlived, and survived twice over, those "rockstars" ..,.
Kudos, my friend!🎉❤❤❤
I had no idea Jim Morrison was buried in France. This is why I love this channel! Always great new content and always learning something.
Thank you for featuring Rico Yan. I was surprised seeing a Filipino celebrity being featured in Hollywood Graveyard. Much appreciated 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭❤
Kakagulat nga e hahaha
Chumika nga agad ako sa comment section. Sabi ko may Pinoy celebrity rin na namatay sa edad na 27, si Rico Yan nga. Tapos sa bandang huli ng video, nagulat ako nung nakita ko yung grave ni Rico. Hahaha! Courtesy of Master Gala.
I got to meet Jim Morrison's family. His dad was my patient in 2006 at Balboa Navy Hospital, San Diego. I was a Navy Corpsman. His dad was real nice and cordial. The whole family was as sweet as can be.
So many good memories of young talents who left too soon. For some reason Anton Yelchin always causes a huge pang of sadness for me.
Informative and respectful as usual Arthur.
this is my favorite cemetery channel of all time , love your amazing work ❤
Thank you for including one of the dear loved matinee idol in the Philippines gone too soon, Rico Yan. I remember the tragic news during summer of that year he died. It was such a tragic news during that time. More power Arthur to your channel.
As one of your Filipino subs, I thank you Mr. Arthur Dark, for featuring not just one of the country's biggest matinee idols, but also one of the biggest stars of the 90s, Rico Yan. Yes, I still remember how his sudden passing was ALL OVER the news at that time...and that some people thought that his cause of death was a "nightmare" (or as locals call it "bangungot").
I, alongside other of your Filipino subs, am hoping you can come here to the Philippines, as we have SO MANY famous graves here, not just Rico, but also other entertainment and sports personalities, as well as Heroes, National Artists/Scientists, and even former Presidents!
It’s been said that you don’t die until no one remembers you. All of these people deserve to be remembered. Thank you for allowing their lives to continue postmortem.
If you believe in Jesus Christ and become saved you’ll live after you die. Just a thought and a reminder that the Lord is coming soon.
I am a fan of your channel and you're one of my reason why I became a taphophile. But other than that, I truly appreciate you that you made it to the Philippines and made a video about this former famous young actor named Rico Yan. He was an amazing actor and lots of filipinos were devastated when he passed away. I thank you for doing that.
I absolutely LOVE this channel. It's the amazing amount of info you give on the deceased. This should be on a large TV Network. Thank you so so much for the many hours you spend in research.
I'm from The Philippines and I've Watched Master Gala..since 4 month ago..Thank You so much for including the matinee idol from 1990s..Rico Yan..I was still very sad about his passing and back in 2002 after his death..he was visited by many of his fans..
Thank You Again, Arthur and hopefully wanted to see more of visiting famous individuals..been a subscriber for 2 years now..have a good day, my friend
What a great tribute! A few of my favorite singers and musicians are members of the 27 club like Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Pigpen McKernan, Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson, Pete Ham, Brian Jones, Janis Joplin, and Amy Winehouse.
I saw Jim Morrison’s grave on my first trip to Paris in 1991. There were people just hanging out there, ALL day. They just literally sit at his grave. That was way before they put up that fence. I was really shocked 😳 when I saw that!!
I wish I could visit his grave as morbid as that might sound. I’ve been a Doors fan for roughly 50 years. My pops was a DJ on the side and brought me home albums all the time as a little kid. One was The Doors first album. He liked Light My Fire. Turned out I loved the whole album. So I ended up eventually getting all their albums then cassettes then CD’s. I even had one 8 track🤣. Being a mid 60’s baby it’s almost impossible not to be.
Donna ,when was that mid 90s?
Thanks for making this, Arthur! So much budding talent lost to the 27 Club.
As a kid, I loved the original Power Rangers and remember Thuy Trang being one of the first celebrity deaths that really hit me. Sadly reunited just this past week with green and white co-star Jason David Frank.
The story of Jade really got me and brought tears to my eyes. I didn't know her or her story but you made it a perfect telling of a life taken way too soon. That scene of her with her family sitting on the hillside hit me deeply. Drugs/alcohol and moving vehicles... What a waste of these lives. Still, “The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long.”
― Lao Tzu, Te Tao Ching.
The Pete Ham story was so heartbreaking. I love Badfinger and had no idea 😢
So many of these peoples' music was the soundtrack of my childhood.
Hollywood graveyard is one of the best things on RUclips. Arthur darks compassion for his subjects, his wonderful voice and the beautiful music all with that great timing he creates in post Is completely hypnotic. Bravo Arthur. Always looking forward to the next Hollywood graveyard.
I love the unique videos you put out. Excellent work as always.
I know this isn't Hollywood or famous people, but have you ever thought about a tour through the cemeteries of Halifax, Nova Scotia to show the graves of the people lost on the Titanic? I know there are a LOT of them there!
Great request, hope he does it.
I've visited it in 2012. the 100 aniversary.
I just saw an article about Anton Yelchin today on MSN. It talked about the message on his grave and mentions Hollywood Graveyard.
I'm glad you remembered " *Pete Ham* ". He was a very talented singer/ songwriter/ guitarist/pianist. *Thank God The Beatles discovered "Badfinger* " with *Pete Ham , Tom Evans, Joey Molland* and *Mike Gibbins* . They gave us so many great song! Pete should've never taken his life. Things would've worked out later. The same for Tom Evans, who also took his life in 1983.
I got to meet "Tom Evans" at a Night Club in "Bridgeport, Ct back in 1981. Great chap!
I adore every one of your videos, but I've found this one particularly superb. Loved the way the theme ties together so many stars and countries. Brilliant, Arthur.
Arthur, you never keep amassing us with your productions. As sad as this episode was it was brilliant tribute to all of those who left us way too soon. Keep up the magnificent work!!!
I LOVE this channel and I loved this video. I've been to Jim Morrison's grave, an experience I won't ever forget, not just Jim's grave, but that whole cemetery, incredible place. Thanks for sharing this, I can't wait for your next video :)
Thank you for this episode. Brought back memories of my youth and favorite artists. Gone, but not forgotten by me.
Thank you so much for this Arthur, but even more importantly, Thank you for including those who were cremated and had no markers or headstones, I know you normally don't include them as they have nothing to visit but for this special episode you made an exception and I for one am glad you did. Maybe when you do another video, maybe keep mentioning them and instead of showing markers, you can do like this one and show bodies of water when mentioning those whose ashes were scattered at sea or a forest or wooden area for those scattered around trees or parks or even those who were creamted and their family members still have their ashes in urns. Thank you again for all you do.
What will it profit a man to gain the world but lose his soul?
May they all continue to rest in peace.. 💔🥺🙏🏽
This is one of the best coverages of the 27 club i have ever seen
Wow, I did not realize there were that many members of this club. I remember in the early 70's visiting Jimi Hendrix's grave and it was just his headstone the said "Forever in our hearts"
Friends of Robert Johnson said that before he made that deal as he claimed that he was “absolutely horrible & couldn’t play a single note” No one could explain how he became so great in such a short time. It will be a legend that will live forever.
I must say, I choked up when Thuy Trang was mentioned, now that we have also lost the green ranger. Thuy and Jason will always be my hero's.
James Marshall, Boon, Basquiat, KURDT, Pfaff, Zapata, Winehouse....
You covered so of my all time favorite artists and show that no matter how long gone!!... they're never forgotten!
Thank u for ur piece!!🤘🎸🤘🎸🤘🍻🍻🍻🍻
Such a shame, so young and talented, may they all rest in peace. ❤️ Thank you again Arthur for sharing the Pete Ham tribute, brilliantly done as always. Wonderfully informative and respectful 27 Club tribute.❤️
Thank u for a nice tribute, to the 27 club. Some I grew up listening to in the 60s, and I loved Amy Winehouse. She, like Janis Joplin, san from their very soul. My favorite song by AW, was Valerie.
RIP 27s, and Danny Keough.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah & Happy Kwanzaa, as well.🕊🌹✝️❄
R.I.P to all of them. Thanks for the video! 😊
Best video you’ve done! The 27 club was always sad but hit me hardest when Kurt Cobain & Kristen Pfaff died, they were only a year or 2 younger than me. RIP 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oddly enough both had connections to Courtney Love. I still say she had Kurt killed. Because he was going to divorce her. The documentary Soaked in Bleach points it out! Thank you for doing this video!
Dude!!!!! My fucking heart dropped when I saw Mia Zapata was finally part of this series!! Thank you sooo much.
viva zapata!
Brought back many memories. Enjoyed this video and all your videos. Can't wait till the next one.
Although I don't think he released or recorded any music, Benjamin Keough also died at 27. His grandfather was arguably the most famous singer in the world.
Yes, he is also part of the 27 Club. Famous grandfather, famous grandmother, famous mother (for her parents and her marriage to Michael Jackson anyway).
He struggled so much with the stigma of his grandfather. May he rest in peace
Thought he was age 30 ish
He looked SO much like his grandfather, too.
Thank you so much for including D Boon. I saw The Minutemen many times back in the day and it means a lot that you included him.
His was a profound loss to those of us in the LA/Long Beach/San Pedro area.
Thanks so much for a wonderful tribute. Way back when I turned 27, I thought about Brian, Jimi, Janis and Jim and hoped I would survive the deadly age. (Spoiler alert: I did )
And another thing I have in common with you besides graveyards and Reese’s cups, my favorite Doors song is also “People Are Strange.”
Thanks again!
All I can say is that I hope that we can all meet in another tim
Meet in another time and place, hopefully someplace beautiful ❤️
Before turning 27, besides thinking of Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendricks, and Janis Joplin mainly to name a few, I was almost so sure I was gonna go with them at that age. But according to my spoiler, I made it past that age too. The same year I turned 27 is the year of my sobriety date from alcohol, in 2010. Unfortunately I relapsed with drugs only in2015, but cleaned up my mess right away in 2016. Im just glad to be alive and to be able to look at the 27 club, as an obstacle I managed to overcome alive.
Well done on turning your life around ❤ I’m surprised and saddened no one else has said that 😢
Thank you so much for the Janis, Kurt, Jade and Amy mention ❤❤❤
I was so surprised when Rico Yan came up on this video, thank you Master Gala for sending the entry! I remember all the intrigue surrounding his death and how much of an impact he made when so many people paid their last respects to him. So young, he could have done so much more.
Thank you as well for mentioning Jonghyun. He had one of the most unique voices in kpop and SHINee’s songs are still the best of the best ♥️
Thank you so much for this episode ❤️ So many beautiful souls gone too soon 😢 💔 But never forgotten ❤️
May they rest.
Thank you for including Thuy. With the loss of Jason, it’s appreciated
As usual, a respectful and informative reflection on so much lost talent.
Absolutely amazing video! I've watched it twice already and it's amazing! I know this would be a VERY long video, but perhaps a suggestion of visiting the Graves of notable military personnel (ie Medal of Honor recipients, military presidents, and other notables) that impacted the turn of the continuous freedom and liberty that we, as Americans, are blessed to have every day.
Very well done documentary on the popular 27 death club. So many tragic stories that left so much talent behind for us to remember and reflect. Thank you ❤️🙏🏻🌹🌴
This is such a dynamic channel. I'm so excited when I see a new video has been uploaded.💗
thank you for mentioning jonghyun, he was a beautiful soul and brought so much joy to shinee/kpop fans. he raised awareness for mental health, supported many communities like palestine/gaza and lgbtq+. my dog is named after him, he’s called moon because we refer to jonghyun as our moon🤍
Another excellent, high quality addition to your videos. So very informative, and as always, respectful. The background music pieces are really fantastic ( does anyone know what they are ?). For non-UK viewers, it's hard to describe just how famous Jade Goodie was from her first appearance on the TV show "Big Brother" until her death. And each of the people in this video were very popular in their own right, in their own time. As always, these videos remind me that we will all end up in the ground, so make use of your time to make meaningful relationshipss, help people, and enjoy yourself. Peace and love to everyone.
Anton Yelich was in a movie and in a scene, which I think is sheer irony, he was filmed right where his future gravesite would be 😢😢😢
Badfinger are my favourite band. It brings me joy to see Pete Ham get some attention. His playing, singing and songwriting are incredible and fill me with such strong feelings when I listen.
Great band!! I agree...there is something so very special and unique about their music. It always makes me feel good.
I feel the same. Love Badfinger
Arthur thank you so much for including Jonghyun, I wanted to cry when I heard his name. He was and always will be an incredibly talented vocalist and a member of Shinee.
Thank you Arthur, etc. al., for a really interesting and informative video! Very professionally done, as always. Couldn't help noticing, however, that I was sad and depressed throughout, which I know is because these were all very young folks that hadn't really experienced life yet...
I wept. So many of their passings rocked me hard. Even though I'm far older than most of her fans, Amy Winehouse's passing broke me. As did Janis' so long ago. I think this is one of your very best videos.
In the opening of the Tim McGraw song How Bad Do You Want It, Tim sang about Robert Johnson. The beginning of the song lyrics are “Robert Johnson went to The Crossroads. So the legend goes. He went there with a guitar, and the devil took his soul”
I know the story. Cream,Eric Clapton's band sang about this in their song Crossroad.
You can't actually sell your soul to the devil though. If you're lost you're already Satan's and wind up in hell on Judgment Day. If you are a Christian you belong to God and Satan can never have you.
@@eddieboggs8306nah. That's not what happens at all.
Although I love every episode of your wonderful series, this is absolutely my favorite! Your knowledge about all the people of whom you speak is incredible!
Thanks for including Alan Wilson, co-founder of Canned Heat. They, too, played Dust my Broom and gave proper credit to the original.
honestly i love this channel.. as a Filipino thank you for feature our famous matinee idol Rock Yan he was famous back in those days.. i didn't know he was 27 when he passed away..
I love Jonathan Brandis and Kurt Cobain. It’s sad seeing 2 talented people go out the way they did.
i know someone already said it, but thank you so so much for including jonghyun. that man was truly the most talented vocalist kpop has ever seen, and i will absolutely die on that hill. as a fan and someone who still grieves him now, that meant a lot to me. thank you.
