Klaus Nomi was only a few weeks older than my mother, both would have turned 80 this year. 1983... he was still so damn young. he had so much talent and a fanatastic voice. he was a trained opera singer and could sing anything from the highest soprano to the lowest bass.
One musician who wasn't mentioned who died of AIDS was cabaret singer John Sex. He died October 24, 1990 at age 34. May he and all the ones mentioned rest in peace.
No. Tom Fogerty, for example, was married twice to a woman. He had back surgery and received blood transfusions that were contaminated with HIV, and he later died from it.
