Maybe I should have read the OP a little closer and actually found a tribute to a musician! :smack:

@Me

So I started trying to think of other songs that were written as tributes to other fallen musicians (or to anyone who had died, for that matter).

Nope, you’re good.

Oh, well then, “Biko” by Peter Gabriel.

Joan Baez - “The Ballad of Sacco and Vanzetti”

This one is somewhat fuzzy but in the song Woke up this Morning (The Sopranos theme song) by A3 (Lyrics) the prologue refers to the song’s central character reflecting on his mortality and his love for the music of Charles Mingus, J.R. Monterose, Jackie Mclean, John Coltrane, Duke Ellington, Lester Young, Billie Holliday, Ella Fitzgerald, Jimmy Reed, Muddy Waters, and Howlin’ Wolf.
