Lots of stories like this. My favorite is Judee Sill - disappeared, died of an OD pretty much penniless. Music ahead of its time with layered recordings, rediscovered decades later...
It's the first song mentioned in the article, but oddly no link to a performance. There's links to two other of her songs. The cover is lovely, as is the rest of that artist's music.
Gosh, "Talkin' Like You (Two Tall Mountains)" is heartbreaking:
The private equity company that scooped up her music rights, most likely.

As far as I know, the rights are still owned by her family. The albums were issued by an independent label operated by one of the persons who tracked down her music. The recent reissue of "How Sad, How Lovely" is on Jack White's Third Man Records (also independent).
