| | Buddy Holly @ peermusic - The Independent Major |
| | On July 22, 1956, Buddy recorded a song inspired by a line of dialogue spoken by John Wayne in "The Searchers." But Decca executives didn't care for "That'll Be the Day," and decided not to release it. | | | Holly's songs have been recorded over and over by these artists and other legends. | | | His mother, who came up with the idea of calling him Buddy, had her son take piano lessons when he was 11, but a year later, it was clear he favored the guitar. |

| | Buddy recorded 12 songs for Decca in 1956, with 11 of them being released in the 50s, although 7 of the songs were not released until after he had become popular with the Crickets. | | | Buddy had already recorded a version of the song for Decca, but the label did not plan on ever releasing it, and frankly, the Decca version was not all that good. | | | Songs by Buddy Holly and the Crickets are featured on several DDD song lists, including "That'll Be The Day" at # 10 on the "100 Greatest Rock Songs of the 50s" list, and also at # 89 on the "Greatest Rock Songs" list. |

| | Buddy, the Rock ‘N Roll Musical, first produced in 1989 and popular in London and elsewhere for years, is given a perky production in its San Francisco engagement. | | | The beginnings of rock and roll were a wild and crazy teen-age revolution, when artists like Elvis Presley and Buddy Holly began making black music safe for white audiences. | | | Travis Poelle, the young actor playing Buddy Holly, is nimble-footed and lively and plays the guitar like a real rocker. |

| | Great American Country Buddy Holly Page |
| | Holly’s 1958 recording in Clovis certainly anticipated the folk-rock sound, via Holly’s acoustic guitar and urgent, but softly sung vocals, Mauldin’s upright bass, and Allison lightly tippling a cymbal. | | | The 20-year-old Holly’s recording of the song rang with confidence and cockiness. | | | As a songwriter working in the context of a self-contained rock and roll band, Holly became standard-bearer for such acolytes as the architects of the British Invasion, beginning with the Beatles, as well as such singer/songwriters as Bob Dylan and, a decade later, Bruce Springsteen. |

| | Buddy Holly, A Personal View |
| | Buddy "paid" for his studio time by being available to play guitar backing on many tracks recorded at Clovis. | | | Their re-working of the song that was originally recorded in Nashville for Decca called "That'll Be The Day" was presented to Coral Records who released it immediately on their Brunswick subsidiary and although a slow seller to start with, the record picked up in the autumn of '57 and it eventually topped the Billboard charts. | | | Cast your mind back to the mid-fifties when record companies paid artists by the song and virtually told them which songs they could record, well my friends Buddy Holly was one of the first Rock'n'Roll artists to write, arrange and record his own work. |

| | Collins' Oldies Website: Buddy Holly |
| | Ever since, that February morning has been known as "the day the music died." Actually, the men are gone but the music still lives; Buddy's songs have been covered by many singers, including Bobby Vee, the Beatles, and Linda Ronstadt. | | | From the time he signed his first recording contract in 1956, his last name was Holly without an "e." He recorded some of the below-listed songs as a solo singer, others as lead singer of the Crickets. | | | Oh Boy (2:07) - My favorite song by Buddy is this fast one, for the lines "All my life I've been a-waitin' / Tonight there'll be no hesitatin'." Now that he's found a girlfriend, he's gonna give her "All of [his] love, all of [his] kissin'." This song was the flip of "Not Fade Away." |
