☠️ Unforgettable DAY THE MUSIC DIED and Must-Know Events for February 3rd!
from “Have YOU heard?” · host Troy W. Hudson
Have YOU heard that February 3rd is the day the music died - I’ll explain what tragedy happened later in the show - but first… TODAY is National Carrot Cake Day. Speaking of sweet celebrations, here's a crunchy fact - carrots were first grown for medicine, not food! Those ancient civilizations really knew how to get to the root of good health. And while we're talking about orange things, the color orange was named after the fruit, not the other way around! And here's a fact that'll feed your curiosity - Norman Rockwell, the legendary American artist, was born on this day in 1894. He created over 4,000 original artworks in his lifetime! That's enough paintings to fill a museum - which, by the way, actually exists in Stockbridge, Massachusetts! Have you heard on this day in 1966, the Soviet Luna 9 spacecraft made the first soft landing on the Moon. Talk about a smooth operator! The #1 country song on February 3rd 2010 was The Truth by Jason Aldean. AND FINALLY… February 3 is NATIONAL THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED DAY - it remembers the unfortunate and untimely death of singers 22-year-old Buddy Holly, 17-year-old Ritchie Valens, and 28-year-old J. P. Richardson, aka: "The Big Bopper." These three artists died in an airplane accident on February 3, 1959, near Clear Lake, Iowa. Their pilot, Roger Peterson, also perished in the crash. ⏰ Timestamps ⏰ 00:09 National Carrot Cake Day 00:33 Norman Rockwell's birthday 00:55 1966 Soviet Luna 9 moon landing 01:06 #1 country song on February 3, 2010 01:23 NATIONAL THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED DAY Watch, Learn and Enjoy!
