I was 2 when the plane crashed. I liked all their music because that's what my parents listened to. My mom bought me my own record of "Let's Go" by Ritchie Valens, which was my favorite at the age of 2. I still have that record today, still playable but scratchy. It's been framed and hangs on a wall in my living room. Don McLean's "American Pie" was about the event, and the group Weezer had a hit called "Buddy Holly" in the 90s. (Jan Griffiths).
The show before Clear Lake was in Appleton, WI. Thirty miles away in Green Bay, the Packers hired a coach that nobody had heard of. His name was Vince Lombardi.
Music is the harp of life ! So there will always be musicians to fulfill this requirement ! But its very sad that such talented & young musicians lost their lives Pray they RIP !🙏❤️🌹
@@ixlr8677 Buddy Holly would of been a legend regardless. He would of been equally famous and beloved, if he'd lived. Dying young doesn't necessarily mean anything. I mean there's thousands of examples of those celebs who died young and people hardly ever talk about them. Or not as much as they should or one expect others to
In fact. The music didn't die that night even though those 3 legends died in that plane crash. The music took off after it became bigger and better. Buddy and Richie and J P never died they still live til this day. It's everywhere.

Rest In Peace.
My husband is from Iowa. We currently live in a different state. I traveled to Iowa many years ago, and I visited the crash site. It was so very sad!
Imagine that poor land owner finding those 3 horribly injured bodies on his property

It's unbelievable what Buddy Holly accomplished in his very short life and even shorter career. Even the Beatles and the Stones look up to him
Wow. I love Waylon Jennings. Nuts how close we all were to never hearing his amazing work, especially with the Highway Men.
RIP Ritchie Valens

Big Bopper had a fever, not Waylon
The Winter Dance Party was badly organized. Instead of getting from once place to another you were going backwards and forwards.
The plane had a certain type of altimeter that Pedersen wasn't familiar with. My dad saw them at the show in Kenosha Wisconsin.

it evolved.
They were worried about the future of rock and roll and it was a very uncertain time.
