"The Big Bopper" was J.P. Richardson. He died at age 28 in the infamous plane crash that also killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the pilot Roger Peterson. It was February 3 ,1959, and has become known as "The Day the Music Died".
Joanne Vincent: The plane crashed in a field about a mile from my grandparents' house when I was 12. I was devastated. They were on a tour called "The Winter Dance Party". Their last performance was at The Surf Ballroom, and the first weekend in February every year The Surf holds "The Winter Dance Party". Even after all these decades, it still draws a big crowd of people from all over the country and some from other countries. It's a really cool retro place, and they've preserved the feel of the old days and the history of music through articles, mementos, etc. Also, the farmer who owned the field built a memorial at the crash site which is still there and can be visited by fans.

@@susanelkins3068 The Surf Ballroom does have a website and a Facebook page. You might also find this an interesting read and a bit eerie: "Waylon Jennings' Close Call on 'The Day the Music Died' ".
Being tragically linked to Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens, many people tend to overlook the other great recording artist on that ominous plane ride.....but there would've been a lot more great music to come from this guy if not for that fateful night!
Waylon Jennings was supposed to be on that plane also, but everyone apparently "drew straws" to decide who would ride the bus with its broken heater or take the plane. In a way, he lucked out. Still a terrible tragedy though 😢.
The 50s was the decade of great music, fashion, styles, cars and free expression that broke the rules that changed the world, all thanks to Elvis leading the train.
My father used to dance with my sister on his feet and me on his shoulders to the Big Bopper, Chubby Checker, Chuck Berry and Fats Domino. Wonderful memories worth more than all the precious jewels in the world.
@@mj95b i had a painful childhood - ear infections and tons of surgeries. When i wasn't in pain - we were dancing, baking, or at the metro parks in Cleveland. 54 now and from moving so much - i have another ear specialist. He's watching my ears very often and checking my hearing aids all the time. He's great. Mom passed in 1996 - dad 2013. I still dance no matter where when i hear the music. It's my heart. My daughter has love me tender lyrics tattooed on her arm. I raised her well 😉
It's about time someone rediscovered J.P. Richardson, "The Big Bopper", who was a radio DJ by profession. He recorded this song, which was a smash hit, and released one album. Sadly, he died in the same plane crash as Buddy Holly and RItchie Valens. I've always considered him to be the first rapper.
J P Richardson wrote at least one other song - which I cannot remember !! - Ahh Running Bear - made famous by Johnny Preston. Richardson's other songs included Someone Watching Over You / Walking Through My Dreams / White Lightning / Pink Petticoats / Big Bopper's Wedding/ Monkey Song [You Made A Monkey Out Of Me]
Man, you guys are trippin' today, but I like it! This song was written by Jiles Perry Richardson, "The Big Bopper". The song is about a young man flirting with his girlfriend on the telephone and listing things about her that he likes, including: Chantilly lace and a pretty face And a pony tail hangin' down A wiggle in her walk and a giggle in her talk Make the world go 'round. The song begins with the sound of a telephone ringing, and is answered by the Big Bopper shouting: "HELLO-O-O-O BABY!" Released in 1958...
Love this - my 81-year-old Mum remembers jiving to this with my Dad way back in the late 1950's. She has said Dad used to throw her over his shoulders when they jived, and that's the reason why she married him in 1959, and I came along in 1961. They still used to jive in the kitchen when I was a small child, but I can't remember him ever lifting her!
A great story: The Big Boppers wife was pregnant with their son when he died in the plane crash...a few yrs ago his body was exhumed to determine the cause of death (some thought he was shot) turns out the embalming process was done so good on him that his body was nearly perfectly preserved after nearly 60yrs in the grave...It was then that the Big Boppers son got to look upon his fathers face for the first time in his life
You MUST see this one live: Big Bopper - Chantilly Lace (1958) (2:28). He, along with two other rising stars, were tragically killed in a plane crash in 1959. It's called "the day the music died". Please react to the other two also: Buddy Holly & The Crickets "Peggy Sue" on The Ed Sullivan Show (1:55) and Ritchie Valens - La Bamba (Live) (2:49). I couldn't find a live performance of La Bamba, but this one includes b/w pics. Ritchie was only 17 when he died. Please don't get confused by doing Lou Diamond Phillips who starred in the movie about Ritchie Valens.
The "Big Bopper" (aka) Jiles Perry Richardson, Ritchie Valens, And Buddy Holly. All became synonymous and legendary by the song "American Pie" (1971) written and perform by the great Don McClean. In his song there is a phrase that says "The three men I admired most. The Father, Son and Holy Ghost. They caught the last train for the coast. The day the music died." The 3 men are... The Big Bopper, Ritchie Valens, and Buddy Holly who all died on February 3rd, 1959 in a plane crash. It was the end of the decade that gave birth to "Rock & Roll music." And music and style will never be the same again. Great reaction as always.
Your reaction was PRICELESS!!! had me laughing and smiling all over the place! Yep, this song has always been a favorite of mine! Thank you for brightening my night!
The day the music died, RIP BIG BOPPER, RICHIE VALENZ and BUDDY HOLLY when the small and crashed in bad weather. Thus referenced in American Pie by Don McLean.
The Big Bopper was a class act that left too far early. The flipside was another gem, "Purple People Eater" was a classic slice of B-movie brilliance. A huge influence on the Cramps who took it to another level.
I met Sheb Wooley who sang the Purple People Eater live about 20 years ago? He had luekemia I think? He passed away a bit later. Also, as a child I had a People Eater hat!
Back in the late 70's, when my brother was a teenager, the church we attended had a tradition of the adults (parents and grandparents) would provide the entertainment for the Valentine's Day "Sweetheart Banquet" for the church's teenagers. My father, who was in his 40's at the time,was 6'2" and in good shape for his age) did a lip syncing impersonation of The Big Bopper! Everyone LOVED it, except my poor 15 yr old brother, who was so embarrassed that he nearly sank through the floor. Years later even he admitted that Dad had done a great job!
I recommended this song to another reactor and , YES!!!! ya'll do it first. They were doing Richie Valens covered by La Bamba and I mentioned the Big Bopper as one of the 3 that died that "day the music died" cause it is such a fun song. So glad ya'll did it first. Great reaction.
I was four years old when this song came out, and within a couple weeks my brother (7) and I knew all the words and would sing it over and over. To this day I can still do that "Oh baby that's what I like!" with a bit of a growl, and "I ain't got nooooo money, Honey" became one of our tag lines when we wanted something. Since we shortly had three younger siblings, our parents (who were immune to "cute") would advise us to earn some money and buy it ourselves.
Y`all are killing it this evening! Love this journey you are taking with the Oldies..Please give Jackie Wilson-Lonely Teardrops(video) Tossin' and Turnin'-Bobby Lewis and Gimme Little Sign-Brenton Wood a try..3 greats I think you both will enjoy :) Keep On Rockin'
This song is tied to memories of my dad. If I wanted something & batted my eyes at him, he would sing the title of this song to me with, "make me spend my money" & I would giggle like he made it up just for me.
My great grandmother use to play his record for us grandkids, this was my sister and aunts favorite but my favorite is "One-eyed, One-horned, flying purple people eater"
Amazing writer and a voice three no 1 hits Running Bear White lightning and Chantily Lace in such a cut short carreer glad to have looked him up should be in rock and roll hall off fame
May all there souls RIP tho to me music died at the end of the 80s. I actually liked American Pie that has that line but got to dislike it so much due to so much overplay I turn it off when I hear the first few notes
The big bopper was one of the three music icons killed in a plane crash in Iowa. The other two were buddy holly and Richie Valen. That tragedy was Don McClains inspiration for the song American Pie. “ the day the music died.”
If you liked this you will love the 1959 rockabilly hit "White Lighting" by the Big Bopper which was the original before the country singer George Jones covered it. I much prefer the Big Bopper original. See link below for a great video for the song: th-cam.com/video/3NMklxiE6xw/w-d-xo.html
Big bopper was actually a radio DJ by occupation which is likely the reason for his voice sounding like that. Back in the day radio djs had this style of speaking called "spewing".. Or so I've heard.. Anyway... Great reaction 😁
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Van Halen's 2nd iteration with Sammy Hagar.... Sammy does an homage in the song "Best of Both Worlds" off 5150. It starts out with Sammy doing the same, "Hello, baaaaaabeeeeee!" Keep Rock Alive!! 🤘🏽🖤🔥🙌🏼 ℁
One of my favorite songs from 50s. I love alot of music types: Metal, hip hop, older country and the 50s. My dad introduced me to 50s music when i was young. I'm 46 now, and can say i have listened to it since maybe 7 to 8 years old. Thank you guys for reviewing this song, and also thank you for reviewing music from the 50s. You guys rock. Thank you again.
Buddy Holly 22, Richie Valens 17 and Big Boppa 28. Such a tragedy, Buddy's wife was pregnant, she lost the baby. RIP Charles Hardin Holley, never forgotten ❤
lol God damn its fun watching you two listen to this old stuff... I remember my parents listening to this... such a fun song lol we used to bop all over the house when they put this on the 8 track hahaha
❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️ ⭐️ He definitely had a few hits!!! You guys hit the nail on the head with this song, describing the lyrics!!! ⭐️ ❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️❤️ With much to you both, always!!! ~ Laura 💞
The first time I heard this I was in 5th grade. The teacher let us bring something or read something while we were waiting for the bus in the afternoon. Somebody brought in this 45rpm. Must have been 1959.
My mother had this on a compilation album and every Wednesday. in 6th grade, she would go to school after I came home from school. I would follow her to the train station. When I was certain that she had boarded the train and it departed, I would run back home and blast this recording, while singing the HELLOHHHHHHH,BAAAAAAAAAABEEEH at the top of my lungs.
I was 7 in 1959 when the tragedy happened and I heard we lost Buddy Holly then when I watched the news I was crying cause Richie and the Big Bopper were with him.
That guy was a freakin genius. But, but but, you know what I like! He didn't only sing this song, he wrote it, and I think he wrote White Lightning as well.
R.I.P. Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and JP Richardson( and the pilot Roger Peterson)---such a loss of amazing talent that cold February day! You will like Buddy and Ritchie's music as well
I am sharing your reactions with my hubby and we love how y'all are loving "our" music, which just goes to show that music is timeless, non generational and knows no color. 💜
When I was a kid in the late 70s and into the 80s my mom listened to a ton of stuff from this era, and this was one I have definitely sang along too. It's so fun.
Also I would suggest listening to everything that Buddy Holly did, as well as Ritchie Valens. Valens was still young and on the rise. Holly was one of the best of the era, imo. All of them are bangers, but you should do Every Day, and Heartbeat by Holly as a place to start, or Rave On.

I agree. Although he was the oldest he was pretty hot at that time. I think Valen would’ve opened for both him and Holly.
Waylon Jennings was supposed to be on that plane also, but everyone apparently "drew straws" to decide who would ride the bus with its broken heater or take the plane.
