Where were you the day the music died?-Buddy Holly


Gonners over 60 years of age.

I remember what I was doing when I heard JFK was shot.

Not to put my musical question on the same level, but can you remember what you were doing when Buddy Holly was reported as having died?


I was looking at a Rek O Kut 12 inch recording lathe in the front window of Joe Franecki's appliance store at 13'th street in Milwaukee. I needed it so I could cut records of the weddings I recorded for $25 on a Saturday morning. {I was in High school and needed to feed my audio hobby.} I thought it was just another accident.

Tonight I'm listening to Don McLean-American Pie.-- Memories last.

Thanks for your posting, Ken

Ken, Ken, Ken............Buddy Holly is not dead.

He was spotted last week, in Las Vegas, hanging with Elvis Presley and a bevy of young female fans.

I'm hoping they are still there when CES gets into swing, I want to compare Buddy and Elvis's voices to the remastered Steve Hoffman LP.
I still listen to Buddy's songs and sign along knowing all the words. That is some toe-tapping, joy of life music!
I am 57 and had older brothers who exposed me to his art.
Albertporter, better than be spotted last weekend while perpetrating an armed robbery of sports memorabilia..."what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas"...for a 10-20 prison stretch!
