We could have done without Waylon

I beg to differ, sir.

In order of importance:

1. Buddy Holly

2. Waylon Jennings

3. Richie Valenzuela and His Flying Guitar

4. Big Bopper

If it's 'four men enter, three men leave', Waylon makes the cut.

If only one? Then Buddy, no questions asked. He is first rate. Waylon is second rate, Valens is second and a half rate, and Big Bopper hardly moves the dial at all.

And this is the story of the day the music died.

p.s. George and Merle > Waylon and Willie.

I have spoken.
