American Pie

Yesterday marked the anniversary of the Day that Music Died.  February 3, 1959, when a plane crash in an Iowa cornfield changed music – or at least American Pop music - forever.

Back in 1999, on the 40th anniversary of the crash, VH-1 did an excellent one-hour documentary that is available on YouTube, but if you want to know less about what actually happened and more about how it felt, no one tells it better than Don McLean.
