Janet Vogel-Rapp of "The Skyliners" died at 37 on February 21, 1980 in her garage under her home from Carbon Monoxide poisoning. It was an apparent suicide. Her high notes in "Since I Don't Have You" are priceless. Janet was such a wonderful vocalist who could do so much more that hit high notes on a fade out in a song. Check out her lead vocals on the Lp's "The Skliners" (1959), "Once Upon A Time" (1972) and "The Skyliners" (1978, not same Lp as 1959 Lp).

It is difficult to say exactly what she was feeling (since she did not leave any written explanation about her emotional state), but we do know that the former vocalist for the 1950s doo-wop group "The Skyliners" was suffering from manic-depression (today called Bipolar disorder) when she ended her life in 1980.
