Sadly, the music world has lost one of it's most powerful voices tonight as blues legend Koko Taylor has passed away in Chicago at ago 80. She lived an amazing life and the daughter of sharecroppers. Koko was discovered by the legendary Willie Dixon in 1962. She even had a small part in the David Lynch film 'Wild at Heart'.
