JOHN COLTRANE, center, the great tenor saxophonist and seminal figure of new black music, would have been 48 on September 23. The Trane passed on in 1973. Five years ago, two of the most memorable figures in rock and roll history met With an untimely end within a few weeks of each other – JIMI HENDRIX, left, who substantially redefined the electric guitar, died on September 18, 1970; and JANIS JOPLIN, right, one of the most powerful and compelling rock and roll vocalists of the past decade, on October 4. Both were 27; their deaths were blamed on drug overdoses.
