in 1963 March 3rd we lost a great performer.
none other than Patsy Cline.
I know she wasnt a steel player, so I hope this notice is accepted. |

| Cowboy Copas and Hawkshaw Hawkins were also on that plane, a very tragic day indeed! More music history was lost that day then when Buddy, Richie and the Big Boppers plane went down. |

March 5th . really. I dont doubt you. however, on a PBS special I watched last night a person held the newspaper. the banner was about their deaths. the paper was dated March 3, 1963.
still, what a loss of talented musicians. |

Acording to patsycline.nu, it was the 5th. I wouldn't swear to it.

And it was only a year or so later that we lost Jim Reeves. I still remember the front page article in the Buffalo Evening News about him on that day. I play Patsy's tunes regularly in the woodshed.
All appropriate for remembering here, in my book.... |

our household always enjoyed listening to Jim Reeves's music. it was our 'joke' to tell people he was my dad's brother (and there really was a Jim Reeves in our family).
I too play a few of Patsy's numbers. well crafted songs.
no one could sing like her. |

| Our band still gets lots of requests for Patsy songs and I still do Lonesome 77203 by Hawkshaw along with several Jim Reeves songs, best dance music on the planet. |

| Patsy was one of a kind!! I played steel on most of her recordings and did her spots on the Opry and telivision. We knew she just a super singer and way ahead of her time. She was a great friend I miss her even today when they play one of her records it brings a lot of memories. Rest In Peace Patsy----- |
