The Day The Music Died..

"Donna" is such a great song.... I used to sing harmony for that one. One of my favorites to play (second only to 'One After 909')

He left an indelible mark on the world.

What, when they "bought the farm?"

Okay, my bad..... You have to wonder how early rock (ALL rock) would have been different had they all lived.

Yeah, I'd say so. So thank God for the Beatles!

yea, no kidding. One thing for sure is that we'd have a whole bunch of great songs around that we dont have today. I think that Holly's songwriting would have changed and matured over the years just the way Lennon/McCartney did.

To put this is Beatles perspective, this was one month after George had played 'Raunchy' for Paul and John on the Liverpool bus. At this point, the Quarrymen lineup was John, Paul, George, Len Garry, Eric Griffiths and sometimes John "Duff" Lowe on piano.
