The Day the Music Died

Post by Alan Brookes »

We shouldn't let February 3 pass without remembering those who died 53 yrs. ago today; Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and JP Richardson. The world lost some great talent that day. Who knows what they would have achieved had they been allowed to live to old age. :cry: :cry: :cry: :(

We should also remember Waylon Jennings and Dion di Mucci, who were scheduled to fly that day but didn't.

Another old friend who for a flip of a coin would have been on that flight was Tommy Alsup.
