The Day The Music Died

On February 3, 1959, there was a light plane crash killing three promising singer/songwriters: Buddy Holly (aged 22) The Big Bopper (J P Richardson aged 28) and Ritchie Valens (aged 18). Today’s program is a tribute to those singers. It is through their music they still live on.
