Charles Hardin Holley (September 7, 1936 – February 3, 1959), known as Buddy Holly, was an American musician and singer-songwriter and a pioneer of rock and roll. Although his success lasted only a year and a half before his death in an airplane crash, Holly is described by critic Bruce Eder as "the single most influential creative force in early rock and roll."His works and innovations inspired and influenced contemporary and later musicians, notably the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, and Elvis Costello, and exerted a profound influence on popular music. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Holly number 13 on its list of the 100 greatest artists of all time. "Maybe Baby" live 1958 on BBC's "Off The Record".

Saying 'Buddy Holly and the Crickets' is like saying 'John Lennon and the Beatles'.

Matt Field

True genius, same as the Beatles. Where as elvis.........one of best voices ever. Sorry but ability to create ranks higher to me.

Great Video. I am a huge Waylon Jennings fan so this is really cool.

Holly released 2 albums in his lifetime one with the Crickets 9and the Picks) "The Chirping Crickets" and solo which was self-titled." there was no background vocal on the self-titled album. except for "Rave On" but that was NOT the Picks.

DerekBayRoberts1

He actualy sounds like himself not like on Ed Sullivan...

joeykimbo

Perfect.

MrRETEROROB

the raw sound is what makes this cool.

Probably not even that high tech, lol. Sounds like someone just held a microphone to their tv speaker and recorded it on a portable reel to reel (hell, maybe even a wire recorder).

It's much better without the backing vocals.

Love hearing this without those damned backing vocals, always hated those...didn't like em on most of Elvis' stuff either.

I'll bet the BBC erased and reused the videos. It's why so many episodes of classic doctor who are missing
