Dead Artists Are Better is for fictional examples, Posthumous Popularity Potential is for real-life examples. Moving from the main page.
Added DiffLines:
* PosthumousPopularityPotential: Nilsson's death didn't get much notice beyond the standard celebrity obituaries in 1994[[note]]It didn't help that a 6.7 earthquake hit the LA area two days later, dominating news coverage. The joke among his friends was that it was actually Harry throwing a fit after learning there were no bars in Heaven.[[/note]]. Understandable, since he hadn't released an album in over 13 years. At that point he was mainly remembered for a handful of hits and as Music/JohnLennon's "Lost Weekend" drinking buddy. Since then a confluence of factors helped rejuvenate his reputation: several Nilsson songs featured prominently in movies, a small but enthusiastic fandom, websites devoted to his work, a well-executed remaster and reissue campaign by Creator/RCARecords, the acclaimed documentary ''Who Is Harry Nilsson (And Why is Everybody Talkin' About Him?)'' and biography ''Nilsson: The Life of a Singer-Songwriter'' by Alyn Shipton, plus the enduring popularity of ''WesternAnimation/ThePoint''.
