American Pie, famously covered by... The Brady Bunch. But they were born too late to know of Buddy, Ritchie, and JP Richardson, so their day the music died picks up from Helter Skelter.

"Then I stopped thinking about it for a couple of months, because I couldn't figure out what to do, whether to go in an entirely different direction. A lot of that is reflected in the manuscript." It still could've gone on to become a dance hit if he'd left the "Do The Bustle" chorus with strings and horns in there.

Is that anything like “Do the Hustle?”... :-)

Wasn’t sick, Karl; from a FR perspective, it was “complex.”

I had that Brady Bunch album! That’s the only song on it I’d skip over.
I enjoyed the Weird Al version, though.

I think he admitted it doesn’t mean much beyond the reference to the day the music died.

Mercy. There are probably a lot of Jim Morrison fans here, too.

That Cindy Brady could sure rock it on the guitar.
Who could forget that Brady Bunch concert when the closed the show with Black Dog and Cindy smashed her Stratocaster over Alice’s head who on the drums?
