On February 3, 1959, a plane crash took the lives of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper). This episode of Memory in Top 40 Music goes back to that day, now known as “The Day The Music Died”, to tell the story of that event which shook the first rock and roll generation and to review the songs at the top of the chart. In our Memory Jogger feature, we look back at Don McLean’s big hit “American Pie” which was a song about that fateful day.
