The day the music died February 3,1959
Just letting those of us who are old enough to remember, or just LOVE 50's music. Tomorrow Feb. 3, 2009 is the 50th anniversary of the death of 3 of the greatest music legends of all time. All 3 in their own way changed the way a lot of us looked at music. May their music live on forever!! Rave On!!Buddy HollyJ.P.

Yes, remember it well since Buddy Holly was one of my favorites. With Peggy Sue and Every Day etc..
I've been to the concert hall in Clear lake, Iowa where they last performed and also to the crash sight. A very somber experience. I knew Buddy and had met J.R. and as for the teenager Richie Valence, he had only a great career ahead of him. If you've never seen the film stories of either of them you need to as they really bring back some great music memories. I was in a group that performed localy in New England as a teen and I will tell you that was a great time for music and also rodding and drag racing. That's the reason I created UNRO a nostalgia drag racing and rodding organization. Our website will be up and running soon. In the meantime I can be contracted at; UNRO1@aol.comWayne
