Message: [QUOTE="donalddoowop, post: 2025772, member: 6552"] That was the day their music died. Rhythm and Blues, Doo Wop and Soul continued. I am one of the people who is helping to keep it alive in St. Louis by still performing with my vocal group. People here who grew up in the 50's and 60's still like to see groups perform the music from back then. I remember the day it happened. I was leaving Jr. College when I heard it on the radio. JordyG, I envy you. You got to see some acts that never came to St. Louis and you were there where so many shows were put on on a regular basis. Some Big Shows came here but we usually had to settle for talent shows and the talent here was as good as any anywhere. I guess you got to see The Spaniels, The Dells, Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers and so many other acts including the groups from New York, those nationally known and those regionally known. I have read about those shows. And yes, I remember all of the songs of those who were on that plane. I still have "Donna" by Richie Valens. [/QUOTE]
