Death and legacy
Suffering from depression, Shannon committed suicide on February 8, 1990, with a .22-caliber rifle at his home in Santa Clarita, California, while on a prescription dose of the anti-depressant drug Prozac. Shannon was cremated, and his ashes were scattered. Following his death, The Traveling Wilburys honored him by recording a version of "Runaway". Lynne also co-produced Shannon's posthumous album, Rock On, released on Silvertone in 1991.
Artists continue to cover Shannon's songs, for example "To Love Someone" by Pat Robinson and Carla Olson on the True Voices (1990) album, and "Keep Searchin'" by Peter Case and Carla Olson on her album Have Harmony, Will Travel (2013), and Bayside on the Covers Volume#1 (2013).
