I've included this one, because it features saxophonist Ron Aspery, who died in Saltdean in 2003, aged 60 - which isn't particularly young by the standards of this thread. But it was too young for me, since I've only just discovered that he was a distant cousin of mine and it would have been good to make an excuse and meet up with him. Too late, though.

Linking in with the previous post, Ron Aspery's obituary in The Guardian says that he was once described as "Ornette Coleman playing Robert Johnson".

There's many more I could have mentioned on the other thread. I'll just add this man though.

MARTYN BENNETT aged 34.

Made some quality music IMHO
