Feb 3, 1959, Ritchie Valens, Buddy Holly & the Big Bopper died in a tragedy that reshaped rock & roll. Pat Boone leads a tribute honoring their music.

Three Stars Tribute commemorates the enduring legacy of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper, whose tragic deaths on February 3, 1959, forever changed the history of rock & roll. Nearly seven decades later, rock & roll icon Pat Boone leads an extraordinary all-star tribute celebrating the timeless music of the three pioneers whose songs continue to inspire generations of musicians and fans. Rather than simply revisiting familiar classics, this ambitious collection honors their lasting influence through heartfelt new performances that preserve the youthful spirit and energy of the originals.

Issued as a deluxe Legacy Collection, this 2-CD edition is housed in a custom die-cut wallet and includes a lavish 56-page booklet featuring recording session photographs, the essay On A Cold Road to Clear Lake by Corey Long, author of Come On Baby, Just Rock, Rock, Rock! The Inspired Life and Enduring Legacy of Ritchie Valens, and a foreword by Connie, Irma, and Mario R. Valens. Together these materials provide historical context while celebrating the enduring cultural impact of the artists remembered here. A Legacy Collection 2LP 180-gram collector's edition is also available.

Spanning two CDs, Three Stars Tribute revisits beloved songs including 'La Bamba,' 'Peggy Sue,' 'Chantilly Lace,' 'Rave On,' 'Maybe Baby,' and the closing title track 'Three Stars,' creating a moving celebration of three lives whose music remains forever young.
