It was 54 yrs ago today that the music died…

Waylon Jennings was travelling with Buddy Holly on that fateful tour, filling-in on bass. He was also originally scheduled on the plane headed from Clear Lake, Iowa to Moorhead, Minn. – but he gave up his seat to the Big Bopper, who was ill and wanted to find a doctor in Moorhead the next morning. Tommy Allsup also gave up his seat on that plane to “La Bamba” singer Ritchie Valens.

Jenning’s last comment to Buddy Holly was “Hope your darn ole plane crashes.” Ouch, man. I’m sure ol’ Waylon wishes he could take that one back. Holly was a good friend, and Waylon’s mentor – teaching him guitar licks, collaborating on songs, and producing Jennings’ first single - Jole Blon. Waylon recalls, ”Mainly what I learned from Buddy was an attitude. He loved music, and he taught me that it shouldn’t have any barriers to it.”

The Shelby-American crew working on the Lang Cooper “King Cobra” driven by Dave MacDonald at the newly constructed Phoenix International Raceway, 1964. The car’s engine had blown after qualifying the previous day, and a replacement engine was brought in from LA and quickly wrenched the morning of the race. MacDonald got in only three laps on the new engine before being fitted on the grid, 30 seconds before the flag fell. –Image by Dave Friedman
