A couple of years after he died (I was in my early 20's), I rented a moped on Martha's Vineyard, and did my own little episode of "In Search Of ...", determined to find his grave which at the time was rumored to be on the island. I think the rumor has since been confirmed, and I counted myself successful when I found an unmarked grave, a little outside of Menemsha, with broken Led Zeppelin records scattered about.

.....with broken Led Zeppelin records scattered about.

Was there any significance to the broken Led Zep records?

Or was it just trash?

According to "findagrave.com" his plot is located at the entrance of Abel's Hill Cemetery in Chilimark.

There is a picture of Dan Ackroyd standing by his grave on Martha's Vinyard in the book Wired

Information from Find a Grave. He has two entries, here, and here. I had heard Martha's Vinyard, but that the grave had been relocated because of Belushi fans who showed up to drink and drug. I think the Illinois one is a memorial cenotaph, and the actual grave is in Martha's Vinyard.
