Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, J.P "Big Bopper" Richardson and the pilot of their plane crashed in Iowa on this day. This tragic event has seemingly been forgotten by pop culture, outside of Don McClean's ballad "American Pie." So, I encourage you to listen to some music from the era, and look deeper into the song that we all know yet do not fully understand.
