I heard the news as I waited at the bus stop on my way to school that day in 1959. I had just turned 16 and it was quite devastating to my generation. You think you and your heroes are immortal, at that age, so 3 deaths like that was a terrible shock.

Buddy was a great song writer and so very "different". Another one in my "lost" 78s collection.
