The Day The Music Died...

Okay, here's the deal - the music didn't really die like Don McLean told us in the song "American Pie", but it was terribly tragic when Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and The Big Bopper were killed in a plane crash on February 3rd, 1959 in Iowa.  Of the three stars, Holly by far left the biggest legacy with many hit records... remember, Buddy was only 22 and already entering a second phase with his music.  Today's forgotten oldie is two songs from Buddy Holly... Peggy Sue and Every Day, a monster hit in 1957, even though they're the A and B sides of one 45rpm record.  Both songs were so good that many fans bought two copies to make it easier to listen.  I'm playing these as a forgotten oldie and a tribute to Buddy.  Actually, there's just no format for his music to be played on anymore... a terrible shame.
