Got quite a bit of BH on the iToons. My older brother was a big fan and I guess I picked up BH as well as Roy Orbison from him. That myth about Buddy flying the plane refuses to die.
Interesting coroner's report. Almost 200 dollars in '59 was some pretty decent walking around money.
To me, the loss of Ritchie Valens is even sadder. He was just starting out really, only had the one hit and nowhere to go but up, and was an ethnic anomaly in the music industry of the 50's. Not that anyone KNEW he was latino at the time.
