    I wasn’t born until 1960 & didn’t discover Buddy Holly’s music until I was in my fifties! What a delight he was. And was only a huge influence on the Beatles, Elvis Costello, and every good rock musician who ever lived, is all.

    Check out the story on the far left, on integration of schools in Virginia. Not so much change in 60 years……
