Buddy Holly recorded under, what are today, primitive conditions. He was in a studio, but there were very few if any technical tricks available, and certainly no Auto-Tune. Buddy and The Crickets were doing everything you heard live in the studio. On a single track, stereo hadn't even been developed yet.
Don't know if it was under primitive condition but it "That'll be the day "was definitely recorded as a demo and then released. The song was recorded at Clovis studio set up by musician Norman Petty. The studio was state of the art, his estimated spending at about $100,000 (US$963,693 in 2020 dollars). What state of the art was in 1954 was I don't know. Stereo was invented in Germany during WW2 by AEG as was magnetic tape I believe. Then developed by Ampex in the US after the war.
Additional background vocals were added to some tracks by various producers.
@@leonardshevlin7260 This song was recorded in 1958, technology only developed 3-track recorders by then, so it was probably recorded maximum in 3 tracks... only if they recorded the backup voices separatedly, or Buddy Holly voice on its own. But I don't listen any overdub and all the instruments sounds live in the studio at the same time.
Also I can't distinguish differences in volume created by mixing in separated tracks, those differences can be heard here, though, but they're produced by the distribution of instruments in the studio and the space between them, so I suspect that pretty much everything was recorded in just one track with all the musicians in the room at the same time
I think what he meant was that no matter how much money was spent at the time, it was utterly primitive relative to today's technology.
he was a differnent guy..told them..i will do my own..which he was working on..his own studio..imagine what cud have happened?
There were no special electronic effects back then. What came out of his mouth and his guitar was what you got. It was perfect.
Buddy did do some multi-tracking which is why this channel should do some Les Paul and Mary Ford
ruclips.net/video/Pht6BAlnkjk/видео.html
Buddy had the long lost personal auto tune by wiring his brain to just sing in tune. Amazing technology lost to the ages.
Yes there was, reverb, echo, distortion and others.
@@betsyduane3461
However, Buddy wasn’t using anything on his voice.
@@betsyduane3461 distortion was not an electronic effect back then, it was done by cranking power on your amp and/or putting a hole in the speaker. It was achieved by abusing your equipment.
Inspired the Beatles and was a pioneer of rock and roll. All by the time he was 22 when he died.
His widow Maria Elena Holly is 89.
@@KASPA-KEY The insect is spelled beetle. The band’s name was meant to suggest musical beats.
@@KASPA-KEY Yes!
Song is a complete classic. Rock and roll being born on the track. Buddy holly writing, singing his own songs and playing lead guitar. Setting the nerd rocker stereotype. Geeky dudes can rock too. He did so much in two years. My favorite artist of the 50s.
I loved a lot of my dad's music like "Windy" and "Cathy's Clown" when I was a kid...til Sean Cassidy 😆
My introduction to Buddy Holly was in this movie called American Graffiti. One of the main characters is this badass hot rodder named John Milner. He gets tricked into driving this young teenage girl around and the Beach Boys come on the radio. He cuts the radio off in disgust and the girl protests and starts talking about how "boss" the Beach Boys are. Milner says "I don't like that surfin' shit. Rock n' rolls been going down hill ever since Buddy Holly died." I remember thinking Buddy Holly must have been such a badass for a badass like Milner to like him so when I looked him up I was surprised to see he was kind of dorky looking lol but his music is badass and that's all that matters.
@@slimbrady6691 wow man. I love this story and your perspective. The Beach Boys are amazing and very important to the story of rock and roll.. but I totally get it.. Buddy Holly had the swagger... watch the live performances of Buddy vs The Beach Boys.. it's clear. He had a subtle punk sneer and confidence...
@@joyousjoy4ever The Crickets were the back-up band on Cathy's Clown
The voice inflection is called a "hiccup" and it's super common in Rockabilly. It's all over my music because I listened to too much Charlie Feathers 😆
Buddy was a conduit between the rockabilly days of Elvis and the inevitable rise of the Beach Boys, then the Beatles. His influence can never be understated. Gone at 22. And yes, the hiccupping was a trademark of his.
This is one of the three musicians that died in a plane crash in 1959 that Don McLean wrote/sang about in American Pie when he referred to "the day the music died..."
I have visited the crash-site and seen the little memorial.
This is also what Don McLean was referring to with the line "Good Ol' Boys drinking whisky and rye, Saying this will be the day that I die, This will be the day that I die."
Buddy Holly is the GOAT. He and the crickets were essentially the first rock band. He wrote, sang and performed his own songs. Complete legend.
I loved Buddy and he has to be a candidate for GOAT.
The Blue Moon Boys starring Elvis came before Buddy's band.
Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochran died young yet they were major influences on bands like the Beatles and Stones. When Paul McCartney auditioned for John Lennon's band (pre-Beatles) he played an Eddie Cochran song. The first song the Beatles ever recorded was That'll Be the Day :-). One of the Stones' first hits was a cover of Buddy Holly's Not Fade Away.
Yep , love love me do came from BH Peggy Sue.
Buddy Holly could have been the KING of Rock n Roll if not for such an early death. So talented and beyond his years for sure. Almost every single song is amazing to be honest. BTW He played at skating rinks, music halls, and maybe even orchestra halls. He was ultra popular for the short time he was around.
Reminds me of riding in the car with my dad. Listening to the “oldies” and making great memories.
Buddy and his Bandmates went to the theater to see John Wayne in "The Searchers", several times during the movie John Wayne say's "That'll be the day", Buddy Holly loved the line and went home and wrote this song.
@@mr.talbot3368 Hi Mr Talbot, my Mother is a Talbot :) we're likely related as the Talbot clan were Vikings that spread all over Europe and the UK, especially in Normandy France!
Brad & Lex, his "Peggy Sue" and "Maybe Baby" are next for you!
This was the birth of innovation in rock and roll. Recorded in a garage at home, this changed everything.
Linda Ronstadt did a killer cover of this song. But then again, everything Linda did was killer.
His strumming of his guitar style was revolutionary and everyone followed
American Pie "this will be the day that I die" was referring to the song.
Buddy Holly was the real deal. "That'll Be The Day" inspired the chorus to "American Pie" by Don McLean: "And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey 'n rye \ Singin', 'This'll be the day that I die' \ 'This'll be the day that I die'" --Holly more or less taught rock and roll how to write a song. When you're ready for more from Buddy Holly, check out "Oh Boy", "Words of Love", "Maybe Baby", "Everyday", "Peggy Sue", "Well... All Right", "It's So Easy", "Rave On", "Not Fade Away", "True Love Ways", and "You're the One" among many others. And for a hint of what Buddy Holly might have sounded like in the sixties had he lived, check out Bobby Fuller "I Fought The Law", "Loves Made A Fool Of You", and "Let Her Dance" among others.
Raining in My Heart is another great Buddy tune.
Brad, when you guys do your will, make sure Lex's brain is left to science to be studied . Her thoughts on music are so cool lol. Happy April 1st guys :)
There were TVs in the '50s! TVs came on the market in the late 1940s, and by the time this song came out most US households had one. It likely had a small screen and looked sort of like a huge floor-model radio with a little screen in it that showed black-and-white programming for a portion of the day and evening, and then signed off late at night. This song was very early rock & roll, and you can hear the blues influence on it in the chord progressions.
And yes, classical music was played in front of audiences; before there were movies, that's where people went, was to hear concerts performed by live classical musicians, stage plays put on by live actors, or ballets performed by live dancers. People would play the piano and sing at home to entertain their guests, or perhaps a guest would play something for their hosts. Live music was a thing long before there was ever such a thing as recorded music!
Buddy Holly was a childhood crush! Such great songs!
Buddy Holly is very famous , one of many great songs over 60 years old a long ago. In the 1950's Early pioneers of Rock n" Roll
I remember hearing this tune off the American Graffiti soundtrack album as a kid. Pretty much my introduction to "rock and roll". It still resonates after all those years. Buddy Holly is a legend.
I wore that cassette tape out as a kid. Wolf-man Jack was a lot of fun!
One of the BEST soundtracks ever. Wanna know what it was like growing up in the early 60s ? Put that disc on. 👍🏼
The studio where this song was recorded is still in Clovis, New Mexico. The sound you hear that is an effect, is a combo of Buddy and he singing style and the echo chamber. The echo chambers were a tiled room with speakers and mics (kind of like a tiled bathroom) that send the vocal out and with a small delay would come back to the equipment. It's pretty close to the simplest recording you can do. Everyone is singing and playing at the same time, just like you would see them live. Buddy Holly was one of the first artists to write and perform his own music. The studio is a museum now, if you ever want to tour it.
Buddy Holly is 1st generation rock"n"roll. I think that's part of what Lex was trying to say. One of the first rock"n"roll artists to record & perform on stage.
Buddy Holly was a true music pioneer. He wrote, performed, produced and engineered his own records... He was the first white act to play the Apollo Theater in Harlem... He was the first to play on an interracial Rock N Roll tour (First with Sam Cooke, later with Ritchie Valens)... and was one of the the first American Rock N Roll acts to tour Europe (after Bill Haley and the Comets) thus bringing that sound to England.... and we ALL know what the results of that was...
Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Jiles Richardson (aka, Big Bopper). These guys were the foundation of what's called Rock N' Roll, or Rock. They're the GODFATHERS OF ROCK.
Don't forget Robert Johnson...
Ritchie Valens needs to be included
@@19HuskyWolf70 I listed the ones who influenced me as a child. Richie wasn't one of them. So make your own damn list.
@@pmR32red Never heard of Robert Johnson when I was a child. I listed those I liked as a kid. Make your own damn list.
@@ken-in-KY Just a suggestion, how rude you are, your list is weak in comparison.
I'm very much taken with Lex. Imagine waking up to that smile!
You need to see him.
He was a super special boy.
He was very americana,,he was polite, and did what he supposed to do.
A good guy.
When you know his whole story,,the music is alot more important.
Mozart and Beethoven played music halls in the late 18th century.
This version is from 1957 - 65 years old. There is an earlier version from 1956. Between 1956 & 1959 Buddy Holly wrote and recorded many great songs. Oh Boy, Rave On ( it has a briliant opening line - the way he sings "Well") and Rock Around With Oliee Vee are great rockers but True Love Ways is a superb love song. Buddy Holly influenced so many that came after him including The Beatles. And keep in mind he died at age 22!
My oldest goes to college in Lubbock, TX... drive by his old spots every time we visit. I recorded (and met G&R before they dropped Apetite for Destruction) at a studio he used in Clovis, NM.
Buddy Holly the pride and joy of Lubbock. Go Texas Tech
@@haynes2799 Guns Up!
Wife here..My parents LOVED Buddy Holly..Thank you so much for the memories it sparked...As always...Love Your Reactions!
Commercial recordings go back to the early 20th century, and there were concert halls and smaller venues for different types of music that existed back then, like classical or ragtime or old jazz. But certainly rock, and its ancestors blues and country, started out as back porch music, and then became commercially viable over time. Country and blues both emerged on recordings in the 1920s, and by the 1950s the two styles had merged into early rock (Elvis, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, etc. etc.), leading to the earliest rock recordings. The reason why this song probably sounds really old to Lex is because prior to the 1960s, recording technology was very crude and at a very low quality level. Stereo (two channels) only came out in 1958, and over the course of the 60s the recording technology improved in leaps and bounds - similar to how computer technology progressed rapidly in the 1990s. That's why even though the first Beatles recordings were only about five years after That'll Be The Day came out, they sound like they were worlds apart because of the improved technology.
Interestingly for tape masters recording in Stereo was much earlier, it was the disc technology that had not quite got to (affordable) stereo standards. Even the 1958 launches were a bit of a false start , not really becoming popular until the late 1960s using slightly different recording standards
@@highpath4776 Yeah, I'm old enough to remember that you had to be careful to make sure if you were getting the stereo or mono version of a record.
FYI - Orchestras have been performing in large concert halls for hundreds of years 😉
They sure have. Where I live, in Birmingham, the Town Hall (capacity just over a 1,000) was built in 1832-1834 specifically for concerts, as existing venues had become too small for the classical music festival that began here in 1784.
Yep, he was a Rock and Roll pioneer, amazing career in a very short period of time.
Buddy Holly was well before my time and to this day is still one of my favorite artists and I'm a metal head lol
He did that hiccup on his own. He had to fight with record company to allow him to do it. But a DJ got a hold of a live
show tape with all his weirdness that they wouldn't allow in studio and it became a smash.
after my mom n dad got divorced he grew his hair, donned leather coat, bought a cool little sportcar, late 80's, wore fingerless gloves, blasting BUDDY HOLLY lol. i'd never seen my dad like that and i'd never heard of buddy, really.. i think *freedom* when i hear Buddy...
Classical music has been around for centuries and what modern music evolved from. Buddy Holly & the like was the start of rock n roll as we know it. Each generation inspired the next so if you were to go back over from now to who inspired them you'll end up at the 1950s with Buddy Holly etc.
I realize that Brad is still learning about rock music, and to his credit I think he's come a long way, but he can be so funny sometimes. Don't think there was a whole lot of audio engineering back then 😂 You're awesome Brad!! Keep learning and listening to different stuff!
Was this one the Decca (Coral)recording? Norman Petty for all his faults had a pretty decent equipped studio , Buddy probably was one of the earliest doing double tracking bounce tape to tape (along with Les Paul) . Which of Buddy's releases was the direct from air to tape one ? A lot of local1950s performers signed to local labels would be signed to the regional if it got decent airplay, and hopefully the artist signed to a national (with the local label contract getting a cut of any sign on fee).
@@highpath4776 No, the Decca version is much slower as the Decca producer wanted Buddy to be more "country" ruclips.net/video/_LlUwu4bsMY/видео.html
Absolute classic, the influence on so many artists to follow. Pioneering rock and roll, recorded simply with no tricks. What you see is what you get. They came to our town in 1958. Wish I had been able to see them play live. And a tragic loss to pop music when they died so young in that plane crash. Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper.
The True Godfather of punk Buddy Holly!
They ABSOLUTELY played classical music for people in halls, performance theaters etc!
Classical music was performed back in ancient Greek times in large auditoriums.
In more modern times, in the US, Madison Square Garden was built in 1879. It has been one of the larger venues for classical and Pop acts.
Recorded music started around the same time when Thomas Edison invented the phonographic cylinder. Big Band music, Jazz, Country and Blues music, beginning in the 20th century, were making recordings that were viewed as music that would be around for ages.
A singer songwriter, guitarist, performer who could pull a listener in, was arguably the first country music superstar Hank Williams. Buddy Holly, I would say, followed in his tradition.
Lex, Classical music was played in Theatres and Opera Houses way back,
La Scala in MIlan, Italy held up to 3,000 people and was built in 1776. It replaced an earlier theatre destroyed by fire.
He was a pioneer in music. When he died in THAT plane crash in '59, he was only 22. The other two singers were The Big Bopper and Richy Valens. Richy Valens was only 17 & he'd just begun making himself known to the rock&roll world. That's the reason he was on this wintry tour. Sad ending to their lives. Paul McCartney bought the rights to Buddy Holly's music catalog. The British band, The Hollies, named themselves after Holly.
In a way you are right about this being the start of something new, but not live performances for large audiences, lol. But you can say Buddy Holly was among the pioneers of Rock & Roll and probably one of the most influential of that era. Even then though, he and the other early rockers owe a great debt of gratitude to the blues, jazz and honky-tonk performers that heavily inspired them.
That's what makes Buddy Holly...Buddy Holly. Elvis had his trademark moves and singing style as well. Can you imagine being a teenager back in the beginning of Rock and Roll in the mid to late 1950s? That would be so cool.
That’s Buddy! He didn’t do it on all his songs, but you knew it when you heard it. Early rock, and I love it. For something smoother, try “Dearest.”
The first band with a rhythm guitar, lead guitar, bass and drums. A true pioneer.
This is all Texas boy who helped create the sound of rock and roll. Also this band was the first white band to play the Apollo.
Don McClean's American Pie (The Day the Music Died) was born from this song. Buddy Holly's death at 22 was the day the music died.
Buddy Holly was the first musician to ever record a track with overdubbed vocals. One singer recording multiple vocals over themselves is common now, but he was the first to ever do it on the Buddy Holly song, "Words of Love". Later covered by The Beatles on their "Beatles For Sale" album.
Buddy Holly was awesome. Absolutely love the 60's
Buddy Holly died in 1959…
@@steveart24 lol. Owned.
Not the start of music, but very near the start of rock and roll. This is it.
It was the beginning of Rock&Roll. Buddy Holly was won of the pioneers.
He was completely original. Nobody in west Texas had ever heard or seen anything like him. That takes some courage.
One of the most beloved singers of all times. A true pioneer as Jerry Lee Lewis, Fats Domino, Little Richard, James Brown. They paved the way for upcoming singers as the Beatles and Rolling Stones.
Buddy Holly and The Crickets were the first rock and roll band to bridge country, blues, rockabilly, and pop. Buddy Holly was among one of the first pioneers inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They wrote, performed, and recorded their own music. Buddy was the first in so many regards.
Buddy Holly, a rock and roll star to then of the Beatles and all others. this was the song that pricked up their ears
Some singers who saw Elvis perform for the first time in the year 1955 in Texas :
Jan. : Buddy Holly in Lubbock
Jan. : Waylon Jennings in Lubbock
Feb. : Roy Orbison in Odessa
June : Mac Davis in Lubbock
Jimi Hendricks saw Elvis perform in Seattle Sept. of 1957. He was so inspired he drew a bunch of pictures of Elvis.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Music Halls started being popular in England in the early 19th century. Vaudeville became popular in the late 19th century in America. It died out in the early 1930s. Lots of singer plied their craft on the Vaudeville stage.
All of the following (and more) started recording in the late 1920s: Big Crosby (the biggest of them all), Gene Austin, Russ Columbo, Al Bowlly and Rudy Vallee. That type of music was called crooning.
The first Country and Western recorded music began with Jimmy Rodgers and The Carters in the late 1920s.
One of the most important people ever for Rock n Roll he is the one that figured out the 3 man sound guitar , bass , drums that was Buddy
Buddy was just great, I love listening to him and the crickets and he was before my parents time. Just timeless.
One of the greats of early rock n roll
This wasn't the very beginning of recording and producing music, but it was _toward_ the beginning. It was definitely toward the beginning of electric guitars and amplifiers. But it was _not_ the beginning of music on a stage. That goes way back. Symphonies played in large concert halls, for instance. But, yes, a lot of music was offstage before recording and playback technology was developed. Marching bands were a big thing and, of course, people were playing instruments on their porches and in their living rooms.
A few bands i haven't seen you react to yet:
Make you a believer - Sass Jordan
The Messenger - Tea party
She Ain't Pretty - Northern Pikes
Gone Gone Gone - CHilliwack
Hilarious. Really fun reaction. And that hiccup thing he does with his voice was fairly common for the time. Elvis did it quite a bit. And was extremely masterful at it. One Reason Music like this was so popular was because of course it sounded new at the time and typically there was a charismatic frontman, Buddy Holly in this case, and the girls all swooned. But this would be on the radio all the time, it would be on the jukebox, it would be on 45 single RPMs oh, and music like this is easy to dance to and in particular, easy to sing along to. How many songs of today can you just naturally sing along to once you've heard it once or twice?
"They're not in a hall with a thousand people watching..." Ermm, yes they were. Haydn conducted in front of large audiences in London and Vienna in the 1790s. There were performances of Beethoven pieces in Vienna in the first decade of the 19th century. And opera performances in various European cities since the 18th century.
Love me some Buddy Holly!
My dad listened Buddy Holly all the time when I was kid. I still love it.
This is what the chorus of the song "American Pie" by Don McClean was about. Buddy Holly was the shit! Check out "Rave On", "Peggy Sue", "Ollie Vee" and "Oh Boy". He inspired the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. They made a 1970s movie about him in which he was played by Gary Busey.
fun fact Buddy Holly and the Crickets was the first white act to play at the Apollo
Chuck. Did all those sound and played the guitar as well. He was great. We all flipped over him back then. I'm 74. He died young in a plane crash.
Before recordings and radio they had sheet music that you would play and sing along to at home.
Buddy Holly wrote and conduct his own songs, they were called hiccups, as the guitar world once said anybody who plugs in the bass guitar you hear the influence of Buddy Holly, you need no look no further than the Beatles thank you for your reaction it's fun watching you guys
Buddy Holly's legacy as a rock and roll pioneer is important not just for his songs that inspired the Beatles and so many others. He was the first popular music artist to write, play, and record his own material and achieve national success.
I sat in a large hall in Miami full of people listening to Andrés Segovia's last public performance (his next scheduled show was canceled due to health reasons and it was perhaps only a few months later that he passed away). As always, he played his acoustic guitar with no amplification.
Buddy was one of the biggest influencers of the Beatles. When they learned he wrote and performed all his own songs, unlike the norm of the time, they knew they could do that too. This is early rock n roll. 1956-57
Effects? Effects were not around yet. Multitrack recording did not exist yet.
sound production was not very good for anything outside of Hollywood movies at the time. Amps were primitive, guitars were plain, and there was no overdrive, or compression. That came later in the 60s
That little voice hitch he's doing was known as the Holly hiccup. It was kind of signature sound. A measure of how much he became an important rock-and-roll inspiration in his very short career is that the Beatles chose their name because Buddy Holly's band was known as the Crickets. His tragic early death in a plane crash with the Big Bopper and Richie Valens was the subject of one of the great songs of all time "American Pie." By the way, the title for the song "That'll Be The Day" was taken from a John Wayne movie called "The Searchers." Wayne spends the movie searching for his niece who was kidnapped by Indians - every time he's asked when he's going to give up trying to find her his answer is, "That'll be the day."
Love these old and cheesy songs, they always bring a good mood. Especilly him, sad he died so young, but he had great songs, Maybe Baby, Everyday, Not fade away and Rave on are must hears.
Cheesy? not to those who first them.
I remember watching the buddy Holly story with my mom when I was young. Probably have seen that movie a 100 times. One of my favorite memories is my mom dancing and singing to it. Good times
Gotta do "Maybe Baby"
"Peggy Sue"
"Words Of Love"
"Not Fade Away"
Buddy Holly influenced countless artists especially the Beatles because he wrote his own songs.
I grew up in Alaska and, in the winter, when I was 10 years old (mid 1970's), I'd get on top of a huge pile of snow, 20-feet tall or so, and sing majestically with my arms wide open and raised to the sky, "That'll be the day when I fall off the mountain!" and then I'd deadfall down the hill, flopping head over heels until I hit the bottom like a ragdoll. I'd get up and take a bow to thunderous applause from the other kids who were laughing their butts off, and go do it again. Buddy Holly: inspring youths in unusual ways. :)
My first ever album was a Buddy Holly best of. I was about 7. It's the perfect introduction to guitar pop.
Always loved me some Buddy Holly.
Buddy Holly was a huge factor in the development of rock 'n roll and his music was incredibly influential to many artists that came after him.
This was the beginning of electric guitar and electric amplifiers and rockabilly and rock and roll. Also, bands writing their own songs and playing live.
Hugely talented. It's all him. He was a big influence on the Beatles and others of their generation. He was getting ready to step up as a songwriter when he died in a plane crash. The world was robbed of greatness. Check out "Peggy Sue"
Back in those days, it was basically the performers and the tape.
I love Buddy great artist! So sad to have lost him so early
I've heard it said that Buddy Holly was an inspiration to many bands including The Beatles. I think what they meant was that Holly produced his own music, not allowing some "professional" producer telling him how his music should sound. It seems to me that he was ground-breaking in that respect.
I love Lex smiling 😃 from ear to ear. This is 1958. Lex is totally digging this.
You can really hear the Orbison/Elvis warbling influence in his delivery.
I love that you guys are exploring the roots of modern rock. You are way ahead of other people posting reaction videos...plus I really like your insights and thoughts on these songs. I've listened to these songs and artists for years and you're bringing a new perspective to them for me. Very cool to enjoy these again for the first time with you! Thanks!
BITD in the 50s, studios & producers made records, not musicians. Studios brought in "talent" to create the sound they wanted and musicians just did what they were told. Buddy Holly changed all that. He did it ALL and told the producers what to do, setting the stage for RnR bands !
He was also the first rock star with a Fender Sratocaster, he got it from Fender directly when it was unknown.
In the song American Pie, he literally says this will be the day... that i die... Such an awesome farewell song. This song rocked. Thank you.
I have nothing to add that hasn’t been said here already. The comments here absolutely on point ❤️🔥
