For today's show, I am celebrating the music of the Big Bopper, Ritchie Valens, and Buddy Holly. The world lost these three stars on February 3, 1959, in a plane crash outside of Clear Lake, Iowa, after their final performance at the Surf Ballroom on February 2. Join me, Curtis Peoples for the Music Crossroads of Texas.
