ROCK ’N' ROLL NEWS
We were very saddened to hear that Rick Nelson died New Year’s Eve in the crash of a private plane near De Kalb, Texas. Nelson, 45, was a central figure in bringing rock ’n’ roll to the mainstream during the late ’50s as the all-American teenage singing sensation on his parents’ top-rated TV show, The Adventures Of Ozzie & Harriet.
