Another Year Gone by...More Memories of Feb 3,1959

The past year has been the final one for many well-known musicians, but at least they had the time to realize their greatness and to enjoy growing old gently. The best of the best were never given the opportunity to share a lifetime and good memories with family and friends. That will be left to those of us who were blessed to have experienced the special time that will remain forever in our hearts. We will never know if the music created the generation, or if the generation created the music, but the important thing is that it happened. Fifty-seven years later, the corn fields of Iowa are again covered with freshly fallen snow as with sadness we recall the day the music died.
