This Day in Rock History - Sept. 29th

1975: A sad day in rock history. While performing his hit “Lonely Teardrops” as part of a Dick Clark “Good Ol’ Rock ‘n’ Roll Revue” at the Latin Casino in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, Jackie Wilson collapses from a heart attack on stage and slips into a coma.

Wilson never really recovers from the coma, passing away in 1984.
