Remembering Buddy Holly

Peggy Sue as matron of honor at Buddy Holly's Wedding

On February 3, 1959, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper died in a plane crash on what became known as "The Day the Music Died."

47 years later, JMS caught up with Peggy Sue Gerron (yes, THAT Peggy Sue) to talk about Buddy and the song that made her a household name.
