The Great Tragedy - Winter Dance Party 1959, Vol. 1
Compilation
February 3, 1959 will always be remembered as 'the day the music died.' On that frigid occasion, a small plane carrying Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper crashed in a frozen Iowa field, killing all touring three rock and roll luminaries and their pilot. Bear Family's posthumous tribute disc to the tragedy brings together some of their greatest recordings on this one-of-a-kind collection, along with key sides from the surviving participants of the tour.
