The premature death of the three musicians was a key moment in rock and roll history, and still reverberates today.
ByToday marks 61 years since musicians Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P."The Big Bopper" Richardson died in a plane crash, a day now dubbed"The Day Music Died."
The crash was immortalized in the song"American Pie" by Don McLean, with the lyrics:"But February made me shiver / With every paper I'd deliver / Bad news on the doorstep / I couldn't take one more step / I can't remember if I cried / When I read about his widowed bride / Something touched me deep inside / The day the music died.
