This is a Tribute Collection of 21 videos honoring these Rock N Roll greats and “The Day The Music Died”
Enjoy! 🙂

Saigon Kids,
Maybe it is just me, but anyone who has not slow danced to Buddy Holly’s True Love Ways while singing softly into his/her ear is missing one of the great experiences of life.
If you have somehow missed this experience, please consider getting this done soon, right now would be better.

Agree!!!!
Actually…at the Saigon Kids Phoenix Reunion 2000, that was one of the songs the D.J. played at the Dinner, Dance. That was one song my wife Susan requested…..
