- Don McLean called February 3, 1959 “The Day the Music Died.” On that day, near Clear Lake, Iowa, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson were killed when their small charter plane crashed in a cornfield. Holly was only 22 years old.
As would be expected with such a horrific accident, Holly suffered severe injuries to his body when the plane went down. The singer-songwriter’s autopsy report shed some light on what exactly happened that night. These are the tragic details found in Buddy Holly's autopsy report.

Rest in Peace to all those we lost that day.
I remember that day-turning on the radio and hearing the dreadful news. I was 14 years old.
Yup, holly was a great influence
Buddy was my favorite person that died in the crash but Ritchie valens was great too.
On his grave, his name is spelled Holley -- not Holly.
I never knew that.
@@humboldthammer yeah his last name was actually Holley instead of Holly.
It’s astonishing how much Buddy accomplished in such a short time. RIP Legend
Buddy was before my time , by 5 years.
I remember Jim Croce just released a
Hit album. Bad , bad Leroy brown , a smash. And then he's smashed in a small
Plane crash. Same sanario, some people never rewarded for their talent.
Agreed!
Nah. Good riddance r4pist.
I feel the same way about Stevie Ray Vaughn. Some people are just old souls.
@@banrap9369 if that’s not true then you’re going to be in trouble.
Buddy and Richie have got to be the two biggest "what-if's" among all the rockers who met early demises.
To David tingley, so with that was said. Buddy had a reel to reel in New York with a lot of new songs and Ritchie only had three singles out, too. They would have given us so many new hits, for sure.
@@thewenik6876 Only TWO singles by Ritchie were released in his lifetime: Come On, Let's Go b/w Framed ; and then La Bamba b/w Donna. Everything else was released posthumously. It's frightening to think that Ritchie's career was only about 6 months long. He was signed to Del Fi in late May of 1958, first recording session was in July. First Single released in September, the next in November and then he was gone Feb. '59. They rushed his first LP out for March of 1959, though it had already been announced it was coming, it didn't hit shelves until March.
@@That_AMC_Guy Sorry. I was with his wrong name. 🤭
@@thewenik6876 Fast Freight b/w Big Baby Blues was originally issued under Arvee Allens, but I'm not 100% sure it was issued in his lifetime. If it was, why wasn't it released as a Ritchie Valens single?
As far as I can tell, the final single was issued in 1959, but as to what month? I have never been able to figure out. I'm assuming since it wasn't credited to Ritchie Valens, it did not.
LATER Pressings WOULD have the credits changed to reflect that it was a Ritchie Valens single.
@@That_AMC_Guy Sorry for this. But do get that there may not have ever been a single with the name of Ritchie Valens; only Arvee Allens.
It goes to show you how important Buddy Holly was to rock n roll. 63 years later and we are still talking about him. 🎸
@Stabswache way before his time. No doubt about that.
The Beatles loved him ,on of the biggest and most influencial bands ever.
Which is also why we can only imagine what the world as well as the music world would be like today had he lived!
Still exposing his abvses too
I'm 30 and grew up with him and the rest because of my parents. I'll always remember them.
Buddy Holly is still alive to me. I play his music regularly and it still sounds as fresh today as it did 63 years ago.
Ditto!
I couldn't agree more! Playing the complete Buddy Holly 6 LP box set as I type :)
I was born in 79, his and ritchie's music is so powerful to me. I always play it to my young children. They will live forever ❤️
Same here!!! I have all his music, have the movie THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY, have seen several live theatre shows about him, and let me tell ya, everyone was on their feet just like we really were at his concerts!!! I was born in August 1961 in Lubbock, Texas, but started listening to his music by 11 years old!!! He definitely has my heart for his music❤️❤️🎤🎸🎹
His band played at my grandparents house in Lubbock. I wish our hometown had honored him more. His brother was a good friend and passed away a few years back. Sweet guy
WHY in the H would they go to your grandmas house and play music ??? it doesn't make any sense.....
@@vikeirishman maybe they had a nice garage. Oh, vike -- you might want to see if you can find the movie about the Buddy Holly Story. It starred Gary Busey.
@@phlotographer I'll look into it - Thanks !!
For years, people spread the rumor that Buddy Holly played at the Community Hall in the thriving metropolis of Vallican, British Columbia. (Population at the time would've been like....3) I once got into an argument with a Supervisor I worked with as he was always trying to prove how smart he was. He claimed Buddy played the Vallican hall in 1961 or 1962.
I burst out laughing. I asked him many, many times if he wanted to recant that statement which only made him angrier. Should've seen his face when I told him that Buddy HOLLY died February of '59.
What everybody confuses him for was we had a local musician who used the stage name of BUDDY MARR, who had curly hair and dark glasses (because he was blind) and they toured around our little armpit of the world through most of the 1960's. Buddy Marr was actually Nick Keraieff.
@@That_AMC_Guy well, I have travelled all of BC, born in BC (Okanagan), raised in BC (W. Kootenay) but have to admit I have never heard of Vallican. Somewhere bigger might be of help although I will check out Google maps etc. Always nice to meet up with another true westcoaster. Always had to chuckle when someone from Winnipeg said that they lived out west.
Well, blow me down. Go one direction after New Denver and hit the Arrow Lake and there is I would be or later go the other direction and stop at the Pulp Mill and don't run me over. Long time ago though. Delivered the Nelson Daily News for 7 years as a kid. Just had not heard of Vallican but have driven the Slocan Lake highway many times as well as many crossings of the Monashee toward the Okanagan.
Not only was he a musical genius but he was ahead of his time in his music. Even though Buddy Holly died but his music will always live on.
That young man didn't stand a chance to survive all those injuries he had. I was young when this happened, and yet I remember it so well. My heart goes out to his wife. So young, expecting a baby, and losing her husband in a horrible plane crash. :'(
And miscarrying when she heard the news
@@misst.e.a.187 But he had a great chance of being elected to Congress
@@misst.e.a.187 experts estimate that the plane hit the ground at least 170 mph 😴😢
Maria was not pregnant. That is a lie. Plus Buddy had already contacted a divorce lawyer. Things were in motion that are not public knowledge. Elena is and has always been in it for money.
@@signeericks5951 A speed like that probably killed them instantly
Buddy Holly was a true music pioneer. He influenced Rock and Punk and changed music forever.
Probably punk
But not Rock
@@toonarcadeentertainment5828 Not rock?!? He brought a Texas element into rock and roll that was different than Chuck Berry, Elvis, etc. I think the addition of Buddy Holly's DNA into rock music changed the soundscape from that point on.
Also sad how Waylon Jennings carried so much guilt around with him for the rest of his life due to both the comment he made to Holly and how he narrowly escaped death himself.
That's the worst. I've said things that later came true that I deeply regret. There is no feeling like that, even when you know the person knew you didn't mean it.
If i remember rightly buddy's wife told him that what happened to the guys that day was not waylons fault and that buddy would want him to forgive himself. I hope they're all together in heaven again
Survivors guilt is a very hard thing to get through. Believe me, I know.
@@iamgroot6965 yeah, but everyone says that
22 year old banter w Waylon
I'm 32 and listen to Buddy a lot. My 13 Yr old brother is a promising guitar player and he loves him too. I think Buddy would be very happy that these generations later, he is still loved. Rip
@@rsmith8434 it is indeed.
I know he would
38 here I also listen to Buddy Holly. Never knew he died this young.
We know what your parents like to do.
Buddy Holly was not just a pop star, he was a true genius
the recipe for the BEATLES is in Buddy's music. 2 years in the Rock & Roll tin pan alley, and still, his influence is felt. whenever I hear 'Here comes the Sun' by George Harrison, I can hear Buddy. I'm not the first to point that out, but y' can't help it. when George sort of whispers the title, he's doing Holly, whether he realized it or not, and I'm not making an analogy to 'My sweet Lord'.
@@rman52 It's a pretty subjective thing. Genius isn't strictly defined as pure technical skill.
@@rman52 none of the people you mentioned could write a song that moved millions at 20 years old. Buddy Holly was a genius.
@@rman52 STOP CALLING HIM A POP STAR, IM TIRED OF SEEING IT, BUDDY HOLLY WAS A ROCK STAR
@@rman52 wth is the difference
Buddy brings back so many memories for me in my adolescent teen years, I'm now in my 78ths year, and I can still sing along the lyrics to his music, I was so fortunate to grow up in the best of times, well at least for me, thank u Buddy, U will live forever,
From a perspective of how today’s world operates it seems like your times were the best.
God bless you
I was 2 years old the Day the Music Died. My favorite song then was "Come On Let's Go" by Ritchie Valens. I still have the 45 rpm record of the song that my mom bought me. Still playable, but scratchy. I liked Buddy's and Big Bopper's music also. (Jan Griffiths).
😊
I'm 22, I've been a huge Buddy Holly fan since 15. it still makes me want to cry thinking about the day the music died.
It's unfair that we lost three fabulous talent guys. R.I.P.
Its unfair that so many old time celebrities got away with r4pe
@@banrap9369 he never raped anyone.
@@samanthacole4395 ur going around this whole comment section trying to convince me this guy doesnt have accusers when they are all in print. Lmao. Celebrity worshiper 🐑
You're a liar! Nobody has ever accused Buddy of doing any of those things.
Hard to believe that his career was only 2 years. So many memories 😢
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere???
He died at the age of 22.
He's still influencing musicians in 2022.
How many young people today are influencing for the next 60+ years?
Musical genius
I have to agree. Buddy was such a great performer.
When Don McLean sang 'American Pie' he tells how he learned of Buddy Holly's death by reading newspapers as he delivered them. A few years later I learned of Sam Cooke's death in the same way.
That's how I learned about Elvis. Never mind - I was in Air Force Basic Training at that time.
Sam Cooke…another tragic loss. He was before my time, but I knew about him because my dad liked to listen to “oldies”. I always wondered why Sam Cooke didn’t produce more music. Then one day I found out that he was shot and died. Much later, I found out the whole story and I cried. No wonder police say that domestic violence calls are the worst! RIP Sam Cooke and RIP Marvin Gaye!!
@@YvetteArby it's really messed up the way Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye died. Both died tragically. Sam Cooke's death is still controversial to this day. Was he set up to be robbed? We will probably never know.
That song sucks
Could never get enough of Buddy. Play his music often, GENIUS Recorder the rest followed, he was the Pioneer if Rock and Roll.
Elvis is the pioneer of RnR!! Buddy didn’t release anything until 1957. Elvis released his first songs in the summer of 1954. Elvis released the first RnR album in 1955. Even Chuck Berry didn’t release his first song, Maybelline, until June of 1955.
This man WAS and always WILL be rock and roll.
Buddy Holly set the stage for John Lennon and the Beatles.
Amen.
He influenced the Early Beatles
I would love someone to do Holly's songs with Beatles later sound
Agreed!
You’re only saying that because he died so young. The same phenomenon happened with 2pac, Kurt Cobaine, Elvis, Biggie… etc
All mediocre artists who died young. If you want to have a legacy in the music industry you just have to die young
So much talent, all lost in one day...
RIP Gentlemen and thanks for your music!
I was only a young child when this happened, but I remember my older sister coming home crying telling our mum that Buddy Holly had died. At the end of that year, one of my other sisters passed away. It is a year I will never forget
I'm so sorry 💔

i grew up watching the buddy holly story on repeat, buddy holly was the first artist i remember loving. he’s got a special place in my heart
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere???
The Buddy Holly Story was full of inaccuracies. The surviving band members wrote about their disappointment in the movie.
Buddy is with his child now. May they rest in peace. I'm so sorry for his lovely wife
I was 13 yrs old when Buddy Holly died, it was a sad day; I remember the tributes paid to the 3 artists on American Bandstand hosted by Dick Clark. To this very day I still have holly's albums I bought years ago and I still listen to his songs, what an incredible talent he was and a pioneer for the music industry, no-one in music accomplished as much as Holly did in such a short life, R.I.P.
Hendrix did quite a lot too in a relatively short amount of time, not as short as Holly but still
@@nugsymalone1247, I don't disagree, but I give the edge to Holly, he even inspired the likes of the Beatles, The Stones and many other rock stars, again not saying Hendrix didn't provide his share.

What a terrible, terrible tragedy...Not only did she lose her love in a horrific way, but to lose the only piece left of him...This is such a heartbreaking tragedy. He was so young..22, your life has barely begun. I can't fathom what his last moments were like, any of their last moments.
The Big Bopper's wife was also pregnant at the time with their son. He was born 2 months after the crash.
I didn't know that. That's so sad.
@@leesashriber5097 his son is alive I think
@@thebeatlesandqueen8817 Jay Perry Richardson died August 21, 2013.
When his father’s body was exhumed, that very son was there to see his father in person for the first time. Fortunately, the body was in pristine condition
@Nigel -- pretty sure so they were checking the body because of an investigation. think there was a rumor of foul play involving a gun owned by buddy holly or something but it was disproven. because his body was shown to have blunt trauma from getting thrown out a plane no bullet wounds but holly's gun was fired once... mystery is nobody knows why.
I own an original Buddy Holly record. Saving it for generations down the line.
Still remembering him in Feb 2022 at age 28, feels good to still be alive!
I remember visiting his grave with my family, he meant so much to my dad.
Bless him and all who Died on that terrible Day
I love Buddy Holly. He is/was an amazing singer. Rest in the Light beautiful souls..you are all loved💗
Hello Amber, I see happiness all around you, can I please share from it?
Buddy was a massive influence on the Beatles. It’s sad when you think what he may of achieved had he lived.
Imagine if he lived through his day. Then met Beatles during their Get Back recording (as shown in Peter Jackson documentary). Jamming together, alongside Billie Preston. How magical moment could that be?
Is it true that Paul McCartney owns the publishing to Buddy Holly's music??
@@rucianapollard4057 yes he does and he used to do a buddy holly festival every year. Makes sense when he owns the rights to the great man’s music.
The Immortals can't be silenced...not even by death. Buddy Holly and the other musicians on that plane were gifts to the world 🌎.
I think “immortal” is a bit of a stretch. He was an entertainer.
Hello Brett, I see happiness all around you, can I please share from it?
Wow, what a way to remember someone who helped inspire so many young musicians. That, and rehashing the Gorey details of his, and the others death.
Buddy Holly was incredible, he was, is, and always will be one of my favorites. what a terrible way to go what a shame?
Dang!!!!!
Only 2 years!!!!
That must be The Greatest Impact Upon Music, ever done!!!!!

@@rucianapollard7098
Richie was of one song note and was more to Mexico than USA. Holly's work went onto influence many... Richie very little.

🥺 We lost some great performers when that plane crashed. Horrific way to die. RIP.
He didn’t know what hit him.
Rock ‘n’ roll, which is been in ICU since Elvis‘s entry in the army early 1958, died that day in 1959. It wasn’t until February 9, 1964 when the Beatles first appeared on the Ed Sullivan show that rock ‘n’ roll came back to life. This time it stayed alive.
Rip legend
@@shackdaddy7106 I don't know that I agree with that. Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys is another musical genius, imo. He influenced the Beatles and when he came up with Pet Sounds, that was what sent the Beatles into doing Sgt Pepper's.
I mean, I love Buddy Holly and will listen to his music for as long as I'm alive and I think The Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens were both good but we lost someone that would have continued to change music in losing Buddy.
@@kfemme68 Brian Wilson was great but he was nowhere near what Lennon and McCartney were. He had too many issues in his life. Drug addiction, paranoia and an abusive father.
Pet sounds was inspired by Rubber Soul. So Brian Wilson was influenced by the Beatles. And then Sergeant Pepper was inspired by pet sounds. So they were trying to outdo one another for a while there. But in the end the Beatles won.
I will say this about the Beach boys. They were the only thing that was keeping rock ‘n’ roll alive at all from 1961 to 1963. And I do mean the only thing.
But when the Beatles appeared on Ed Sullivan and started the British invasion that’s when rock ‘n’ roll really took off again. And this time it did not die in a plane crash.
I’m from Lubbock and we used to walk by the house he was raised in all the time..
My God,so many know his name an music...and he died at age 22,with a wife and unborn child at home. I can't find the words to describe all that.R.I.P

Horrible the description of what they found 😕 Holly's body..
How frightening.
@@samthunders3611 Look at 2:37. That's Buddy in white on the ground. His head is exposed to the right.
@@rotunda57 can't see ugh.dont want to
The Beatles didnt off the ground until thdh were 22
The pilot was young and not trained for instrument only take offs. My dad's nick name was Buddy and had just been discharged from the Army. He always told me how mad he was when he heard of his death. He said Holly was his favorite artist at that time and he said the world was cheated out of a one of a kind, great talent.
Well put there by your father
For a VFR rated pilot, when in doubt don't. My Dad was a pilot, he only flew light planes, but emphasized if you see the weather isn't what it needs to be, stay on the ground, or you can get yourself killed. He only had a VFR rating. IFR, or I think it's called IMC, is a different story, and a experienced pilot with an IFR rating could've probably successfully flown that route. Who knows, perhaps the pilot got a little cocky, wanted to pick up some extra cash, and fly some celebrities around gave him the incentive to take this unnecessary risk.
The guy was one of the worst pilots who ever lived. Only JFK JR. was worse!
I always figured it was ice on the wings causing a stall on climb out. And yes, the young pilot was probably 'star struck'.@@kevinmalone3210
Those autopsy details were gruesome and hard to listen to. Almost wish I had not learned them.
I believe they were all already dead in the plane before it hit the ground due to impact including Valens. They didn’t have much time to feel anything.
The was quite the graphic detail of Buddy's injuries.
A full autopsy was never performed. There really was no need. I have read it several times, it is only 1 page long.
Their music was so ahead of it's time! Buddy's song writing was more than ahead of it's time.To be took from this world at just 22years of age after all those amazing songs he wrote proves that! And Without him the world wouldn't have had the Rolling stones.he helped influence the Beatles, his "words of love" song featured on one of their Albums. Their music will always keep them alive in our hearts.
I remember when he died. I was heartbroken. We lost so much when that plane went down.
So heartbreaking.
Sad.
R.I.P. Buddy Holly.
Yup
Don't forget the other 3 men who lost their lives
Buddy Holly‘s widow Maria owns everything about Buddy Holly with the exception of one thing. His music. Paul McCartney owns that.
Really? When did he buy it?
@@2degucitas Paul McCartney bought the publishing rights to Buddy Holly’s songs way back in 1976.
♥️
Idk if it still true or if his kids sold them but Michael Jackson owned Paul's earlier music. And he wasn't interested in selling.
@@GingerMaster6875 Jackson bought the majority of the Beatles publishing rights in the 80s. He was in so much debt to Sony that he sold 50% of those rights over to them in 2008. Several years after his death Sony bought the rest of the rights from MJ’s estate.
McCartney then sued and reached a settlement with Sony to regain at least a portion of his original copyrighted material.
Clear as mud?
From the early 80s I loved buddy Holly as a young girl, love his music as much to this day, he was brilliant, what a waste of a young life so talented, he lives on in the legacy of his music, thanks buddy xxxx
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere???
An absolute genius. What he accomplished in such a short time is mind boggling really.
A British band called The Quarrymen changed their name to The Silver Beatles, as an homage to The Crickets-Holly's band.
Later, they dropped the "Silver."
The rest is History.
The Crickets are often thought of as the first Modern rock band. Before them, it was all Doo-Wop.
An absolute amazing talent and such a tragic loss
RIP to these 3 Rock and Roll Legends. They may be gone but live on through their music. I have been a fan since I was young because my dad liked their music and took me to see La Bamba when I was a kid. Their story is such a tragic story that could have been prevented from happening and who knows how far they would gone. Rest in Paradise legends.
Autopsies truly paint a picture of a situation.
He was in a plane crash, and died from it. How much more tragic can it get?
What a legacy he left behind after only two short years. He is still so famous in 2022. I wish his baby had survived so we would have a little Buddy Holly. Another tragedy.
RIP Richie Valens, The Big Bopper and Buddy Holly, and the poor pilot of course. None of you have ever been forgotten and you never will be 🙏💖🇦🇺

And for many other musicians to come.

@@banrap9369 that’s enough!😡
So erotic
@@banrap9369 For what? Buddy was, by and large, a good kid. He had a kind heart. He was going to form a recording studio of his own and take budding artists under his wing. He planned to help Ritchie Valens take his career further, after the winter tour.
I have Sons who are now in their 30s and they both know every note and every word of Buddy's songs ,sigh ,when you could sing along and understand the words ,?
Their spirit still exists in Clear Lk. Iowa. I know, my wife & I experienced it in 2015 while visiting the area, Surf Ballroom, etc. It was an amazing experience. We were visiting the Surf on the way home from Sturgis SD, ran into Valens' sister Connie. Then ran into a gentleman who was standing next to his friend that fateful night who was getting the last autograph Ritchie Valens ever gave. Visited the crash sight ,ran into Connie again. (very nice lady) Rode for a couple of hours, stopped and LaBamba was playing on the service station loudspeakers. The whole experience sent chills down our backs! We highly recommend visiting the Surf Ballroom, especially if you are a musician. It's awesome.
If you ever find yourself in Lubbock there is a very cool Buddy Holly museum there too. Small, but a lot of very cool stuff, including the Fender Strat that made the trip on the bus and waited at the other end for an owner that never arrived.

Yes
The plane was at a sharp bank angle and simply went wing tip/prop first into a corn field in terrible visibility with a pilot not certified for IFR flight . Completely avoidable accident. The reality is everyone likely had no clue they were about to crash due to spatial disorientation. Hitting the ground at approximately 170 mph, they likely didn’t feel a thing fortunately. RIP
Crashing a plane at 170 mph straight into the ground and you're telling me everybody didn't feel a thing? Sure.... buddy. 😏
@@MrMJmusicLover Study “spacial disorientation” as it pertains to IFR flight. You obviously don’t understand it and have no knowledge whatsoever how the inner ear works. You can’t see the ground. 170 to zero is instant lights out……buddy
@@nordicpride9708 You said they didn't feel a thing...... well crashing into the ground at 170 mph isn't exactly like landing your head on a pillow. You're gonna feel something, might be a split second, but you're still gonna feel something.
@@MrMJmusicLover Pain in the nervous system doesn’t work that way. If you flip the switch in a millisecond in the medical field it is referred to as “died instantly”. Many studies show no pain is felt at certain velocities due to your brain being “instantly”eviscerated. The Brian feels the pain through the bodies nervous system. No brain no pain.
@@nordicpride9708 So is that why they tell you to put your head between your legs in an emergency of the possiblity of a crash? So that your head can be cracked opened like an eggshell and you won't feel a thing? I heard that was a myth and not the real reason they want you to put your head between your legs. The real reason to do that is to prevent your head and neck from whiplash from the G forces.
Poor Waylon never forgave himself for that remark. As mentioned in the video, it haunted him.
His songs will live on forever ❤🙏
True!!
Yup, and the drummer for the crickets is so underrated
My fave musician of all time. He was full of talent, What a musical genius.
Rip legend
I always heard that When Paul McCartney became famous he purchased Buddy Hollys song catalog and then donated the money he made from the purchase back to Hollys widow.
That's generous
@@2degucitas if it’s true that was a great way to honor Holly by McCartney
Yup
Respect Paul McCartney for this generous gesture in honor of the day the music died.
Oh wow...now thats a story to be told right there. 👍
The plane crash that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper happened 9 years before I was born. I didn't grow up listening to their music, (although, "Not Fade Away" is my favorite Buddy Holly song), but I remember several years ago, back in the 90's, there was a "Behind The Music" episode called, "The Day The Music Died." It was about the Winter Dance Party, and the tragic plane crash that followed. The whole thing was just heartbreaking. Everybody on that plane died in that crash, and my heart goes out to their families and friends. I know this happened back in 1959, but you just don"t get over something like that. Such a horrible tragedy! RIP to the victims of that plane crash.
I used to love "Behind the Music" and I remember the episode you are talking about.
That is just painfully sad
Love their music ,
Agreed 🙏
RIP to the x4 who lost their lives That fateful day God Bless all of Them.
My Hero, way ahead of his time and a total genius. RIP Charles Hardin Holly
I listened to his music growing up. He's music was more my parents generation. I still like it.
My daughter and I went through Iowa about eight years ago. I had to detour to the crash site to visit where he died. It was very sombering. My mother had a Ritchie Valens record too. Told me of the sad story of the plane crash. Chantilly Lace by Big Bopper has always been a great toe trapper.
RIP all those who died in that crash.
His music still marches on 🤙🏻♥️
May they all Rest In Peace.
he came to sydney where i live in 1957 but i was only thirteen ans could not go .what a pity .i am one of his biggest fans
Without doubt, Buddy was very special. As a Liverpool kid of about 9-10 years old, whilst staying with an aunty in Heswall, on the
Wirral, in a flat above a coffee shop, I remember his music belting out at night from down below. It's potency and impact has never left me, it was magical. I love his music and songwriting ability. I recently read a biography on his life - a real eye-opener. Such talent. I came away thinking what a generous, kind person he was, but, like Elvis, was taken advantage of by others. So generous, always willing to help others in the same game to get the recognition they deserve, not grabbing all the limelight for himself. Like another much-missed pop legend of mine, fellow-Scouser Billy Fury, someone who has a special place in my heart. Thank you, Buddy. I know you had strong Christian faith, so RIP is not a hopeful wish, but a certain confirmation.
❤❤❤
I grew up hearing his music, played on records and by my dad on guitar. It still breaks my heart to think of what they might have done. RIP to all those lost to the Muse. The afterlife has the best band.
Too much information, gruesome, love Buddy🍀🇬🇧💖
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere????
2:36 Buddy's body can be seen on the ground in his light coloured coat between those two men, with that Cadillac ambulance directly in the line of sight in the background. Buddy's body was less than 20 feet away from the crumpled air-plane.
Gotta be the hardest thing to do never attend the funeral or visit the grave of someone you truly love.
Well then you don’t truly love them then. There’s absolutely no excuse whatsoever. . She’s a gold digger
People grieve and deal with death differently and for his wife who had also lost their unborn child, this was a huge blow. She didn't have to publicly grieve for her love to be true. No one does.
@@andyrob3259 Agreed.
@@andyrob3259 What absolute ignorance. For your own good, don't ever seek employment in the field of mental health. You will be sued into oblivion for incompetence.
@@andyrob3259 Maria has said that if she would have gone on that tour with him then he wouldn't have gotten on that plane. She blames herself for his death. Like Curwin Sphere said people handle death and grieve differently. Some people can't handle funerals. I didn't go to my great aunt's funeral because I wanted to remember her like she was before she died. I went to her viewing though. Even though I didn't go to her funeral, it doesn't mean I didn't love her less.
R.i.p bopper, richie, buddy, pilot. All onboard 😢😢🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I was too young for this event, but loved all the music these Artists sang. So sad
Hello Tammy, I see happiness all around you, can I please share from it?
May they all Rest In Peace 🙏🏼✝️🇺🇸♥️💫
Yup
