NP - Musician RIP's or the P-list habitus

So as the winter D-list  piles up (Mr. Bones do work xmas eve and other
holidays), I noticed that some folks get our P-list homage and others
don't. Why?

Of course, the loss of Bley and Boulez are sure to be felt  among the
crowds of those who went to their concerts or bought their ablums - some of
whom appear to be on the P-list.

And the loss of Lemmy? Now, I know that Motorhead can't possibly compare to
Boulez, but what about a shout-out to the man who sang "Eat the Rich!"?

Might I conclude from this that our tastes tend toward the consecrated
artists of so-called 'high culture'?

By the way, Lemmy got an Obit in The Econmist, worth reading.
