It’s sad that these great talents tear themselves up so much, tho’. Rossington was the prime object of “That Smell” (and then ironically the plane crash soon followed, which doesn’t appear to have any direct connection with the crazy lifestyle.)

Billy Powell became a Christian and joined a Christian Rock Band, but he died pretty young as well.
