Buddy Holly


Anyone familiar with the history of Rock knows the story of Buddy Holly: A charismatic and wildly talented songwriter/performer, Holly achieved enormous success while just barely into his 20s.

While Holly was touring England in 1958, he received an ominous message from Joe Meek, a British recording engineer and producer. 

On a night in January of that year, Meek had attended a tarot reading. The message delivered that night was "February third, Buddy Holly, dies." 

Holly thanked Meek for the warning, but did not seem concerned since February the third had already passed. 

Buddy Holly would die on 3 February 1959.

February 1959, he charters a plane to take him, "The Big Bopper," and Ritchie Valens to the next gig. Tragically, the plane crashes, killing all three.
