I remember when Roy Buchanan was found hanged in his Maryland jail cell. Interesting to note his famiily disbelieved the suicide story. Many families would disbelieve--but it WAS majorly Mutli-Cult ruined Maryland--so it could have been nig in cell or even cops.Roy Buchanan (September 23, 1939 - August 14, 1988) was an American guitarist and blues musician. He is noted for his use of note bending, volume swells, staccato runs, and pinch harmonics. Buchanan was a pioneer of the Telecaster sound.
...In 1971, riding on word-of-mouth reputation that included praise from John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Merle Haggard, and an alleged invitation to join the Rolling Stones, Buchanan gained national notoriety as the result of an hour-long Public broadcasting television documentary.
Legacy ...Buchanan's long-standing alcohol and substance problems seemed to worsen with time, culminating on August 14th ,1988, when Buchanan was arrested for public intoxication.[citation needed] Several hours later Buchanan was found hanging in his cell, in the Fairfax County Jail, by his own shirt. His cause of death was officially recorded as suicide, a finding disputed by some of Buchanan's friends and family.[citation needed]
