Behind
the Music : The Day the Music Died
by Martin Huxley, Quinton Skinner
Book Description: Their lives were cut brutally short...yet
the legacy has on lived on for four decades. They were three of rock 'n'
roll's brightest stars, touring together in a music revue that was as grueling
as it was magical. Dilapidated school buses that frequently broke down
and rarely had heat carried them hundreds of miles across the Midwest with
its unforgiving cold. Hoping to get a decent night's sleep, a hot meal,
and a chance to clean the clothes they'd been wearing for weeks, Buddy
Holly chartered a plane.
On February 3, 1959, Ritchie Valens, the Big Bopper, and Buddy Holly
boarded a small plane bound for rock 'n' roll heaven. This is their story,
told by the family members, bandmates, and witnesses who lived it. Including
material not seen in the original VH1 broadcast, Behind the Music: the
Day the Music Died is a compelling record of one of rock 'n' roll's defining
moments.
