Another anniversary. 53 years ago tomorrow, Buddy Holly died in a plane crash.
I'll be playing Buddy Holly and the Crickets in the shop tomorrow, if I can find the CDs.
Must tidy this place one day!
Narrow fronted but surprisingly large shop in Moreton-in-Marsh High Street with comprehensive stock of (mostly) remainders and other reasonably priced books. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere with a little eccentricity. Two old duffers, Tony and David, who have a remarkable similarity to Minnie Bannister and Henry Crun, own it. Nina does her best to run it - despite their hindrance. Child, dog and gorilla friendly - we'll even put up with adults. Tel.01608 652666 / mail. cotsbookstore@tiscali.co.uk
Hope you found the CD's. Youd be surprised how many places I went and heard Buddy over the speakers.
ReplyDeleteThe voice was silenced but the music lives on!

Thanks for looking in and for your comment.
ReplyDeleteYes. CDs found and played on the day and the following one. Good to hear that I wasn't alone. Great music enjoyed by all our customers.
I was 15 when I first heard him with 'That'll be the Day' on Radio Luxembourg and have been a fan ever since.
Now I have daughters and grandchildren who enjoy his music too.
Tony.
