I remember it rather vividly -- probably amazingly so because I was in college from 76 to 80... and "vivid" was something we didn't get a lot of in the haziness of the Seventies

Long live the music of Jackie Wilson, Arthur Credup, and the other R&B trailblazers. Long live the spirit of Scotty Moore and Bill Black. The Golden Age of America has sadly left us forever, but history will marvel at the quality and quantity of music from 1920 thru 1980. There is only one King of Rock n Roll. Elvis will always be in my building, most likely reproduced thru Polk'sWhen freedom is outlawed, only outlaws are free...

His bass player at the time (Jerry Scheff) starts off his book "Way Down" with the story of the band's flight landing mid-trip when the news came across. An interesting perspective of the "event" from an insider. Great read for any into R&R by the way.2 Channel "Polk" Room:
