Gloria Jones
Steve Peregrin Took
Took died on Oct. 27, 1980, from asphyxiation after choking on a cocktail cherry. Though he and his girlfriend had ingested both morphine and hallucinogens the night before, authorities ruled that neither contributed to his death.
In 1977, founder, songwriter and sole constant member Bolan died in a car crash several months after the release of the group's final studio album Dandy in the Underworld, and the group disbanded. T. Rex have continued to influence a variety of subsequent artists.
Jones was driving the car at the time and sadly lost control of the vehicle hitting a tree. It propelled Bolan out of the car, dying as a result of his injuries while Jones escaped unharmed. Luckily, their son Rolan was left at home with his grandparents while the two parents enjoyed a night out.
