    Bummer. He came to my high school once for a seminar. Help me solidify my drive to create music. RIP Quincy!

    The term LEGEND gets thrown around too loosely but this man was just that, a true legend of the musical landscape.

    Off The Wall and Thriller are pop, not rock. It's great pop.

    IMO.

    I thought it was the weather impacting the plane carrying the Big Bopper, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and others.

    Oh, that was just music in general not Rock & roll
