  2. Patsy Cline, Cowboy Copas, Randy Hughes and Hawkshaw Hawkins were killed in a plane crash near Camden, TN on this day in 1963.

    They were traveling to Nashville after appearing at a benefit concert for the widow of Kansas City disc jockey 'Cactus' Jack Call, who had died in a car crash. On 7 March, country singer Jack Anglin was killed in a car crash on his way to Cline's funeral. Cline was the first country singer to cross over as a pop artist.

  4. 65 years ago today, "I Fall to Pieces" single released by #PatsyCline (Billboard Song of the Year 1961).

  5. Re-doing a #MusicWomenWednesday from 2024, as the video I'd linked to disappeared and I had to grab a new one.

    When I was a kid in the 90s, I had a Wax Trax video compilation on VHS that had this great cover of Patsy Cline's "Walking After Midnight" done by Los Angeles' BRAINDEAD SOUND MACHINE. This was the first way I ever heard this song, and I'm crazy about this version.
