Subject: In Memoriam: The Day The Music Died
1959 -- Buddy Holly (22), The Big Bopper [J.P. Richardson, 29], & Richie Valens (17) go to Rock'n'Roll heaven. Killed in plane crash near Mason City, Iowa.
I don't hold with a lot of sentiment, but at least here's a tip of the hat to those who sparked so many musical souls. Sometimes I feel like I have Buddy Holly in my blood!
