Tommy Dee's song was written only hours following the trios' death as his reaction to the catastrophe. He only intended for it to be played on the radio station where he worked. But the opportunity came to record it professionally and he grabbed it. The result was Three Stars, which would do so well that it reached Number 11 on the national charts and has sold millions of copies since. Author Albert Leichter is a long time record collector, author of two music discographies, the newspaper column Rockin' All Nite Long, and five books on local Staunton, Virginia history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.15 x 10 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 01, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53273671106867,"sku":"9780970428097","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/bKfh96My49780970428097.webp?v=1776891391","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/tommy-dee-three-stars-still-shining-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
