65 years. The so-called 'Day the Music Died' was 65 years ago today as people found out about the terrible tragedy out of a town called Clear Lake, Iowa. Buddy Holly, J. P. Richardson (the Big Bopper), Richie Valens and pilot Roger Peterson were gone in a snow squall.
You know how today police don't release a victim's name until after a family member has been notified? It's because of this tragedy. Elena, Buddy's now very-new widow found out about his death watching the news and had a miscarriage the next day.
The man, the legend, the day that will live on forever in memory. 'Rave On' taking us out tonight.
