Especially since the sixties, when famous and semi-famous musicians seemed to start dying off in record numbers, the living stars have been finding out that a tribute to a dead popular singer almost always makes for a radio hit. I bet most people can STILL sing most of the words to “American Pie”, which was a tribute to Buddy Holly. One of the better examples of recent years is MIDNIGHT IN MONTGOMERY. Shown in the video clip below, this song is a tribute to Hank Williams, done by Alan Jackson. The black and white footage makes for excellent effect.
