Why Do They Insist On Declaring This?
"The day the music died"... Music didn't die on this date (February 3, 1959). Three talented entertainers and a young pilot died, but music definitely did not. I've heard that even Don McLean has said he wants to vomit whenever he hears that someone (fellow entertainer, DJ, etc) who should know better attaches this fateful date to his song.

If he feels like that........ why did he link the two in the first place to give people the connection ? Music didn't die but something was sure lost , maybe a sense of innocence. It didn't help that within a short time, Elvis had joined the army, Chuck Berry was in jail, Little Richard had gone religious and Jerry Lee was persona non grata in some circles. Maybe it felt like the end of those great early days of rock and roll.
