Feb. 3, 1959 – The Day the Music Died
Do you remember the fatal plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa that ended the lives of some of the 50’s best rock-n-roll tunes? Or maybe you’ve heard about it…
1959 – The Day the Music Died - this was what Don McLean sang about in his song “American Pie.”
- Buddy Holly, American singer (b. 1936)
- Roger Peterson, pilot (b. 1937)
- Ritchie Valens, American singer (b. 1941)
- J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson, American singer (b. 1930)
From a cat who loves the vibration of rock-n-roll tunes, this was a sad time in rock-n-roll history. Angel’s brother and sister remember this day vividly – they were in their music loving teens.
