I was a 13 year old in 1957 and like most teenagers I listened to Rock N Roll on my transistor radio. My parents, like most parents of teens in those days did not like RNR and all the body twitching that went along with it. Also, like many other parents they regularly watched the Arthur Murray Dance Party. To say that I was shocked when Kathryn Murray introduced Buddy and the Crickets, is and understatement akin to the Grand Canyon is just a hole in the ground. Watch the wall flower kids behind the band... NOT A MOVEMENT - under strict orders to not dance or move with the beat... OK to let the guys play a song, but dancing to Rock N Roll - No Way! I watched my parents faces, complete shock... FYI, they later learned to enjoy it too.

You influenced countless of artists & musicians over the decades and your songs have been and STILL are played around the world! You left us with such a powerful and tremendous legacy of music and all was accomplished in a short period of time! A super talented young man who made many pick up a guitar and want to learn "That'll be the day", Peggy Sue, Rave on, Maybe baby, Oh boy and on. You are missed by many and we can only wonder and imagine what other great songs you would have recorded as time moved on. Happy Birthday Buddy, Rest in Peace and Thank you for the wonderful legacy of music you gave to us all......................

In late 1958, Buddy opined that the "Rock & Roll Craze" was only going to last about 6 more months. He had no expectation of doing Rock for the rest of his career, so there's no telling what Buddy would have done. Based on his work in New York in 1958, it's pretty clear that he was heading into symphonic recordings. Waylon Jennings (a major fan and friend of Buddy's) said, "It's not a question of where Music would take Buddy Holly. It's a question of where Buddy Holly would have taken Music." It's always going to be a mystery.

I sure remember when Buddy died which I heard it on the radio & got the sense that it was a pretty big deal. Of course, all three of those who died seemed “old” to me then. 😄 Now 2 of my grown sons both have ‘dibs’ on my Buddy Holly vinyl albums, (not to mention my original Elvis & Beatles records). Buddy was an amazingly creative and gifted musician. There’s never been another like him. Huge loss when all three of those young men died.

Buddy had an astounding impact on rock and roll and did it in just a year and a half in the public eye! The influence he had on The Beatles, the entire British Invasion groups, was phenomenal. Had he not died tragically in that plane crash while on the Winter Dance Party tour, he had planned to go back to Lubbock, Texas, his hometown, and open his own recording studio. He wanted to produce new acts. Waylon Jennings, his guitarist on the last tour, being one of them. Lou Giordano was another. A tragic loss for American music when he died at 22, along with The Big Bopper (JP Richardson), and 17-year-old Ritchie Valens. What a legacy they left us though.

Buddy Holly was amazing. The guy put out so much great music in just a couple of years. His hits are great but so are many of the other songs on his albums. He wrote most of his songs in a time when that wasn’t at all common and arranged his own music for recordings. He was a visionary who was an idol to the Beatles, Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan, who saw him play live just a couple days before he was tragically killed. His music will always live on. He’s the true king of rock.

The most "help they give today are to those that don't need or deserve it. Certain people get $10,000 a month or more in social security and food stamps because they refuse to lose 900 lbs or (im being nice here and not saying) certain groups of people don't or they say they don't speak english, while I get barely enough to survive on each month and I get told "I'm sorry, but we can't give you anymore help then that". Because that's what a certain "running group" tells me I'm worth, because of what I look like and according to them I have no ailments or illness even though I suffer from depression and severe chronic anxiety. add and adhd, which are illnesses, as well as a bad back, several herniated discs in my spine and my spine is now slowly deteriorating, I also have to take super strong pain medication, anxiety medication and other medication for the add and adhd, which all of keeps me from working and going out in public for the most part, but according to them, when I was first just diagnosed with the spine, back, depression and anxiety, they said none of that should prevent me from working. Even though some is being done for me now and years ago they couldn't have done much for me, but still, I don't get enough money and my Dr get s questioned why I need all of that medicine. Hello, I have ailments. Sorry for going on, but I was trying to make a point.

Anytime I see him live I think that the music would go in another direction if that plane landed well.. He was such a hero, and I'm sure that being such a creative talent he could be the superstar of the 60s. To see, how he aging, how he became wise and experienced while still bright and shiny... This world lacks Buddy Holly.

In 1958 Elvis, the king of Rock & Roll, went to the Army and never came back. Jerry Lee Lewis was banned and blacklisted, Little Richard retired, Chuck Berry was in prison and Buddy Holly died in 1959. What a mess. Buddy was a real genius. Rip.

All through that, Buddy was only stroking DOWN on the Fender. Not UP and down, just DOWN. "Peggy Sue" was originally called "Cindy Lou," a Calypso song that Buddy wrote and performed for his niece, Cindy Lou. Jerry Allison asked Buddy if they could change the title to "Peggy Sue" (Peggy Sue was Jerry's fiancé at the time). Buddy said YES, but only if Jerry could play paradiddles all the way through the song. Jerry did it, played paradiddles, and Buddy changed the song title to Peggy Sue.

Abbreviated version. Love that intro. Rock and Roll was considered the rebellious music culture, and most old folks said it wouldn't last; hence Danny and the Juniors', "Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay". This is a great video. Thanks.

My father went to Norman Petty studios while Norman's wife was still alive. His favorite musician was Buddy Holly. His pictures he got were great. He also visited Buddy Holly's grave. It has a metal of some type pressed with Buddy's image on it if I remember right. Somberist of photos. The tour played Serb Hall in Milwaukee, Wi in my state before his last place in Clear Lake, Iowa. A lot of musicians death's have wisconsin connections or close times. Like Stevie Ray Vaughn's copter crash after leaving Alpine Valley. Too many young dead. And Eddue Cochran died a year after the day the music died. 58-59 were sad years indeed for r'n'r. Rip.
