Buddy Holly is one of my favourite artists even though he wasn’t around for long. True Love Ways is also my favourite Buddy Holly song, such a beautiful ballad. Rest in peace to Buddy.

"That'll Be the Day" is still one of the greatest records ever made. That is definitely one for the jukebox!

"Maybe Baby" was featured in an episode of HAPPY DAYS, performed by Potsie (Anson Williams). I think it was at the beginning of the episode when Richie was seriously injured in car crash.

I loved that show. Have watched it some on Pluto over the past year. Taking me back to another time and another place as you can well relate I am sure KC

Great rundown from Richard and hard to believe how many great tunes he managed to put out in such a short time! Obviously have been a ton of Buddy covers over the years, you mentioned Leo Sayer's, but somehow neglected to reference the finest of them all, the version of Everyday that was a minor hit in 1985 for the legendary James Taylor...:P The Hollies (who at least partly took their name from his) actually did a full album dedicated to him (Buddy Holly was the unimaginative title), including a lot of these tracks and some more obscure ones too.

Actually great title for the album because it tells you everything about it! James who.....?

One more Buddy Holly song that would have been a great 11th track was "Rave On." This one is probably my personal favorite of Buddy's and perhaps his most energetic recording.

Great set, Richard. BH was of course a big influence on Lennon and McCartney, particularly McCartney. A few more must hear tracks: Rave On, Not Fade Away (Alternate Overdub Version), You're The One (Overdub Version), Think It Over, and Listen To Me.

I know Rave ON but not the other ones, I will check them out. Hope you are doing well An Cat and I always value your input on these!
