I can't remember that tragic day as I was only 3 years old, and didn't knew anything about USA or Buddy Holly(Charles Hardin Holley) at that time. But I must say that this music became some of the most dearest music in my music collection.

One of my favorites is this one, also known from the british TV-serie Heartbeat:

winchester73,
If it any thing like the reopening investigations over here I would not hold much hope.
Sadly the Birmingham pub bombings November 1974 21 loved one gone no one convicted. :muahaha:

Ahhh ... but the efforts of the Hillsborough Justice Campaign got the inquest re-opened, so never give up!
