What happenedI love Patsy but I do find I lean into the Bob Dylan version, something moody and sorrowful about it that I find more... true to ballads.
So many greats lost in plane crashes in those days
Two great songs by him. Baker Street and Right Down The Line. Could listen to them all day . He was Scottish but wouldn't know it in his singing voice.
Found out that the writer of this great song was none other than Willie Nelson.
What happened
Ritchie valens, Chuck berry, and Buddy holly all died in a single plane crash in the 50s as well.
Correction. Chuck Berry was not on that flight. It was J.P.Richardson, known as the Big Bopper, famous for the hit song, Chantilly Lace. Also, Waylon Jennings was supposed to be on that flight but gave up his seat for someone else. The famous song by Don McLean, Bye Bye American Pie,was, supposedly about their demise.Ritchie valens, Chuck berry, and Buddy holly all died in a single plane crash in the 50s as well.
