Thebigbopper Stories

Relato corto a modo de homenaje a Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens y The Big Bopper, tres estrellas de la música que murieron tragicamente en un accidente de avión mientras estaban de gira por el oeste de EEUU, el 3 de febrero de 1959. A este trágico suceso se lo conoce como 'el dia que murió la música'. Tommy Dee escribió la canción 'Three Stars' para homenajear a sus colegas, y luego fue reversionada por el cantante Eddie Cochrane. Mas tarde, Don McLean compuso 'American Pie' para recordar ese hecho. Buddy Holly fue una de las estrellas mas influyentes de los '50, e inspiró a innumerables artistas, entre ellos los Beatles. Llegó a la cima con exitos tales como 'That'll Be The Day' o 'Peggy Sue'. Cuando murió tenía 22 años y dejó trunca una ascendente carrera musical. Ritchie Valens tenía tan solo 17 años y ocho meses de carrera artistica al momento de su muerte. Hizo una recordada versión de ''La Bamba'' y compuso canciones como 'Come On, Let's go' y 'Donna'. The Big Bopper era el mayor de ellos, con 28 años. Se caracterizaba por su estilo simpatico y aparatoso. Su canción 'Chantilly Lace' fue la tercera mas escuchada del año 1958.

On February 3rd, 1959, a small plane carrying three talented musicians crashed into a cornfield. This is what I think would have happened if they survived.

The world shook the day the music died, and the face of rock 'n' roll hasn't been the same ever since. Even in 1968, Paul McCartney still couldn't quite imagine the full magnitude of the tragedy - how could Buddy Holly, so full of life and with so much more music left to make, be gone, just like that? Plenty had changed since 1959. Paul was no longer a longing teenager, but a wildly successful member of the Beatles. One night, as he was struggling to work on new material, Paul was reminded of just how much the Beatles owed to the bright young Texan boy, with his famous glasses and Stratocaster, whose life was taken far too soon. If only he could have told Buddy, his hero, how much he had done for him. Suddenly, Paul awakens to find himself in 1958, still the same full-grown man he was ten years later. He comes face-to-face with Buddy himself and all of his other heroes. As he gets to know them all, he must reevaluate himself and what he thought he knew. But, when the opportunity presents itself, Paul begins to wonder... Could he stop Buddy from getting on that plane? *Also featuring the Everly Brothers, the Big Bopper, and others!*
