Today marks the 50th anniversary of the crash in an Iowa corn field of the small plane carrying Buddy Holly, Richie Vallens, and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson. Their deaths by aircraft began a tradition among singers that has been proudly carried on by the likes of Jim Croce, Patsy Cline, Ronnie Van Zant, Stevie Gaines, Otis Redding, Rick Nelson, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and John Denver.
To this day, it remains a divine mystery why God didn't grab the plane before impact, carry it to New York, and land it in the Hudson.
