Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue?: a Rock 'n Roll Memoir

In 1957 â€œPeggy Sue,â€ by newcomer Buddy Holly and The Crickets, rose to #3 on the charts, quickly generating a gold record. Sung by hundreds of artists from Connie Francis to John Lennon, it would become a classic. By 2015 it positioned music legend Buddy Holly in Rolling Stone Magazineâ€™s Top 30 Songwriters of All Time. Only a single red rose left at Buddyâ€™s grave each year gave fans a clue â€œthe girl next doorâ€ was real.

Peek over a teenagerâ€™s shoulder as she writes in her diary about falling in love with a musician and the world of rock â€™n roll. When she is immortalized in song, watch as the world falls in love with â€œPeggy Sue.â€ Because she was there Peggy Sue can narrate one of the most compelling stories in music history, including â€œthe day the music died.â€ She rips rumors apart, shares scores of personal photos, and unveils intimate details never revealed in book or film.

Follow young Peggy Sue through her confusion about love and devotion, her prophetic nightmares of impending doom, a plane crash that shattered her future, and the surprising circumstances of the accidentâ€™s aftermath. Then accompany Peggy Sue on a rocket ride to Hollywood where The Crickets build a new identity working with rock â€™n roll greats like Bobby Vee, the Everly Brothers, and Roy Orbison. Stay with her as she struggles to escape from a life drawn by fate, to an unyielding determination â€œto keep the music alive.â€

Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue tells a story of lost innocence, dreams, tragedy, and destiny.
