Whitney's Wide-Ranging RIP's

Interesting to see the wide range of RIP's for Whitney Houston.  I saw tweets and Facebook messages from Rockers, Alt-Rockers, Pop acts, Country acts, Jazz acts, actors, sports figures, politicians.

Re: the non-Pop/R&B acts that responded to he death.  You'd be surprised how diverse one's record collection can be.  Just because a Rock act doesn't play R&B doesn't mean that at some point in their life they haven't been impressed by someone's voice talent not in their genre.

When a Whitney or Etta or Amy Winehouse die you will see a ton of RIP's crossing all genres.  I guess artists aren't as diverse in their tastes as the rest of us.
