Please my I say for this tune for my uncle Sammy, who has passed away on Monday 23rd, 2023, he was a buddy holly fan,,! Thanks,, 🤝 RIP, uncle Sammy,, ❤
Buddy was ahead of his time. Every documentary I've seen about him leaves me amazed. And he was so intrigued by recording and sound engineering technology, as well as production. Had he lived longer, he likely would have become a legendary producer.
MY god I wonder what type of music he would've made in the 60s. Would he have evolved or faded away like so many of the great American bands from the 50s?
Duh. His songs are still covered and musicians and singers still marvel at his genius! He was only 22 when he died! He would have been bigger than Elvis because he innovated and wrote his music.
@@clydeb7713 I like to think he would've continued being a great song writer but unlikely he would've eclipsed Elvis. No one has really been able to do that no matter how great a song writer/performer they are.
Jerry Allison was the best r'n'r drummer...his paradiddles and innovations in rock percussion were absolutely unique. He and Buddy matched like no other drummer and guitar player ever did. Hats off !
@@manueltelechea3620 not true,Elvis wrote nothing, without Chuck Berry,Carl Perkins,Jerry Lee Lewis,Johnny Cash,Little Richard etc there would be nothing. Yes Elvis was a great performer BUT those guy's wrote the music,especially Chuck who wrote everything where Elvis wrote nothing
Are you sure he said that? Cause I know FOR A FACT he said," without Carl Perkins there would be no Beatles " I'm not saying he didn't say it,as he could have said both but are you sure that you're not getting it mixed up ?
im a 16 year old girl in 2021. i was introduced to his music at 7 years old and i hope he rests in heaven knowing that his music is still adored by many, especially someone from such a younger generation. rest in peace buddy 🤍🕊
We need you! Keep Buddy in your heart and tell all your friends. Pound it into their heads! Thanks from a guy who has been listening to him since 1956.
The foundation of rock was established with Buddy. 2 guitars. Bass. Drums. Writing and performing originals. Involved in record production. RIP Buddy. Always be missed. .
Elvis' band (pre-dating the Crickets): Elvis Presley - guitar Scotty Moore - lead guitar Bill Black - bass DJ Fontana - drums Buddy was a songwriter, though. Something Elvis never claimed to be.
was this lineup of the Crickets the only one? I seem to recall seeing him perform with just bass & drums, thinking to myself - the original power trio,
He played the simplest chords in the most basic patterns BUT DAMN! ... he was one the best rhythm guitar players and song writers who EVER LIVED! His Musical Immortality is extremely well deserved!
@Tessmage Tessera Don't know if this is just Hollywood BS, but in the movie the song was originally "Cindy Lou" and the drummer's gf was named Peggy Sue. Drummer pestered Holly to rename the song to impress his gf and Holly responded by offering a deal: You get the paradiddles right and I'll rename the song. So in that version it would seem that the drummer needed practice and Holly had to motivate him.
My 21yr old son will be graduating from college in the spring. At that time, he will be the same age that Buddy was when he passed. I never really thought how painfully YOUNG Buddy Holly was when he died until now, seeing my own child at the same point in his life. It's ASTOUNDING how much Buddy accomplished in his far, far too short life.
Its usually the case, that a group of musicians with a clearly defined music style, can produce music that will last forever. Just look at the enjoyment on all their faces, clearly a group of musicians knowing they have a unique music style, which has hit the mark with appreciated fans
Buddy was not only the leader of a ahead of its time rock band that plays as raw as it can get, but this band had a writer and arranger that was ahead of its time also!!! Buddy could have gave us all so much more but we will never know. but we do have his masterpieces today!!!
his arrangements remind me of Glenn Miller and his arrangers. Buddy probably would have gone on to work for Decca in the USA in the 1960 , possibly scoring films and who knows what.
People today see him with a strat and think "thats one of the most common guitars around!" but back in the day when this was recorded, the strat was practically brand new and rcompletly revolutionary to the world
They will never tear down the Duluth ( MN ) armory because three days before his untimely death, Holly played one of his final shows there and in the front row was a teenage Bobby Dylan who claims to have made eye contact with Holly which Dylan has ca)led a passing of the torch moment.
I've always loved and I will always love this song. You ain't kiddin', there's no telling how many more amazing Great pieces of music, Buddy Holly would have written if he was still alive. ❤😊 Thank you very much for sharing this video. ❤😊
I was in the 7th grade when this song came out!,,, I remember seeing it on the Ed Sullivan show on Sunday night!!!!! There will never be another Buddy Holly''!!!!!!!!!! The day the music died .....Feb 3, 1959 God Bless Buddy
God, what a force of nature he was. Words always fail me about Buddy. I automatically think punk rock two decades ahead of its time when I see and hear him, even though that characterization is very limiting. Even with that look he has the whole confidence and attitude down; stripped down to the core of what rock is all about. I've been to Lubbock; it's a desolate, hardscrabble place where dust chokes your lungs and you can see how a man can come out of there with the fury to conquer the world. RIP the greatest master of early rock.
1976 I was 12 and rejected disco and I remember looking through my mom’s old favorites… nuff said! Buddy, Elvis, Gene Vincent, Everlys, etc… they were an answer to prayer.
I’ve always loved Buddy Holly’s music. Even though I didn’t grow up in that era, I can’t see how I can play guitar and not at least respect it immensely. But far more than that. Hope to see you in the next life, Mr. Holly.
A great biopic about Buddy Holly, who was ahead of his time in many ways. Such a huge influence on so many rockers who came later. A life cut so tragically short.😢
Still have my Buddy Holly album I got for Christmas in ‘66,4 years old. Love it,play it regularly. Have to wonder where music would have gone had he and so many others like Eddy Cochran’s,Gene Vincent lived longer. Not to mention so many country artists who died too young also.
coming from a baby boomer this music was my parents. I liked it as I grew older, now that I'm nearing 50, it seems yesterdays music is really based off these days.
Genius in color. A change of Buddy’s voice for a stanza. That’s brilliant. And they are all having fun (instead of trying to shock). Lubbock produced some stars that faded all too soon. I can see how they inspired the greats that followed.
So cool to see this colorized...it really helps bring out the details of the footage and highlights just how young these guys were, making such amazing music
I'm liking Lubbock Texas. Fled here form Los Angeles end of 2021, and I can't believe how nice and cool the people of this area of Texas are. Breath Of Fresh Air.
This man will be remembered for some reasons.First,his world class voice and singing,and then,his abilities to compose a good song.I mean,a real good song.
I remember seeing them on Ed Sullivan and my brother got mad at me cause I was dancing in front of the television... he threatened to clobber me so I sat down..😂🎼🖤🖤🖤🖤 (Great post! Thank you.)
Jerry Allison, has got to be one of the most underestimated drummers ever! Like Buddy years ahead of his time! Nobody could play 16th parriddles like Jerry!!
For many years, it was believed no Holly/crickets video had survived. We are lucky to have the 2 Sullivan shows and the Arthur Murray. This clip is very good, do look for the hi res black and white upload as well. very sharp. It's great that Buddy's guitar is miked up, but the camera goes to Niki during the solo, even though he is not even plugged in!
Truly amazing watching that. I was a little kid but my older sister had all those great hits on her "45's and drove my mother nuts listening to them all day long. Great memories. Buddy Holly R.I.P.
He didn't write Peggy Sue. Most of his well-know songs were written by others or by Holly with a co-writer. That's not a bad thing; Elvis didn't write songs and he did quite well! ;)
Jerry Allison is the drummer. He co-wrote this and "That'll Be the Day" with Buddy. He's still alive today (82 as of August 31, 2021). Peggy Sue was his girlfriend (later wife who he was later married to until she died in 2018). Yes, the recording and this performance shows that very little cymbal work was involved on this song. He adjusted the sound for either Crickets songs (more forceful drumming) or Buddy Holly solo songs (hand claps, just brushed cymbals, even hitting a cardboard box to soften the percussion for the more yearning songs of this type).
@@number1cabdriveriniowacity736 It's because he's playing paradiddles RLRR LRLL whereas most rock drummers, unless they'd learnt the rudiments, would stick to single strokes RLRLRLRL etc. , but paradiddles gives it a distinct, subtler feel.
What I’m seeing is when rock got too producer drivin in mid 70’s, that punk started a movement to sound well like this freakin striped down brilliance love it
Just 4 guys. How did they manage to sound so full and robust? Great music. What a loss when he died. Richie Valens was also killed on that flight. He was another great talent. So sad.
What couldn't Buddy do? He could sing, play, write & produce. Such a shame Norman Petty, held on to his royalties, forcing him onto that fateful Dance Party tour. Rave On Buddy, you'll never be forgotten.
@@scottmorrell233 I feel the most horrible loss in the history of rock and roll. I know for sure Buddy would have created masterpieces had he not been taken away. He had the Magic nobody else has ever possessed.
"Quantum Leap" hit TV show for 4 years, starting 1989. Multi-genius hero is an accidental time traveler "fixing what went wrong". When its fixed, he leaps to another time and space, another something that's gone "wrong". At the end of very first episode, the hero, Sam, turns to young man playing guitar ... Throughout the episode a minor character was trying out different lyrics and chords on his guitar. He's singing "Piggy Sue" to a pig at the end. Sam turns to him "Buddy, try 'Peggy Sue'." And he leaps.
There’s a beginning to everything..Rhythm and Blues becomes Rock and Roll. No surprise these guys got invited to the Apollo thinking they were a black group. As Billy Joel once sang… “Only the good die young.”
His story is the textbook example of "what could've been". How important was he? He changed the musical paradigm of how bands looked and operated, and it's no more evident than with the British Invasion. So many bands cite Buddy as their inspiration, and probably brought the Stratocaster to prominence. Absolute legend.

Buddy Holly was the 50's. RIP.
60s and 70s too just the best of the birth of Rock n Roll
Just imagine how many songs this guy would have written had he not died so young!?!? 😖
The Beatles some of them.
Yeah 👍 so true what a shame
"Here comes the Big Bopper. CAPTAIN Diarrhea himself!"
It would’ve been interesting to see how his music developed in the 60s alongside the British invasion and psychedelic sound.
Just don’t

Years ahead of his time. Shout out to the drumming. Excellent.
I was just gonna do that. Three drumsticks.

Interesting, no cymbals.
Genius. Se love him here in Brazil
We love
That driving beat really carries the song.
Kind of a precursor to the "surf rock" beat. I wonder how many surf-rock drummers were inspired by him.
the true KING!!!
Love the Guy on the Drums ☺️
This is great,,! 1st time i heard buddy , was when I was a kid in the 70s,! Born 23rd May 1968, from northern Ireland UK, 🤝
One of the greatest talents we’ve ever had. What a tremendous loss.
Buddy and Eddie Cochran together a terrible Loss
Yes, all these great original songs written and performed before he was 22ys old!
MY god I wonder what type of music he would've made in the 60s. Would he have evolved or faded away like so many of the great American bands from the 50s?

You do need pretty good hands to groove paradiddles all around the kit for 2 minutes at that tempo.

Buddy was always seen with his Fender Stratocaster and love the unmistakable Holly hiccup in a lot of his songs. The man was a musical genius!

Buddy was a music making machine. So many of his songs are/were covered.

Just how cool was that? Too cool! Like forever immortally cool.
Thank You Ed Sullivan for delivering so many legends to our living room!
Proof that a song doesn’t need complex arrangements to be great.
Or auto tune .
But it was a bit complex and that's why he was a genius
Yeah, but this was in like the 50s or something, so
So true
This man had a phenomenal sense of melody.And he knew what a catchy song is.
That made the hair on the back of my neck stand up .. fantastic peice of rock and roll history sounding just as fresh today
All I can hear are the drums, bubby's voice and his guitar. And it sounds so cool.
A major inspiration for the Beatles, even the name!
Right. Crickets. Beatles. As Paul might say, "See what we did there?"

@@graemesmellie5223 I think he is a contender because Elvis didn’t write his music nor play a instrument but buddy did both of them.
John Lennon did say if he lived longer he would probably be the King or Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Without being stupid, this is so raw and stripped back that despite the lyrics punk owes more to this than a lot of what fell between.

He didn't write Peggy Sue. Most of his well-know songs were written by others or by Holly with a co-writer. That's not a bad thing; Elvis didn't write songs and he did quite well! ;)
Just the perfect chord change and song writing
SOOOO DAMN glad to see this...I was born July 1977 so this is AWESOME
Just think of the great songs to come had Buddy Holly lived.
I know little about drums but that guy with his tom playing sounds unique to me.
I noticed he barely touched a cymbal
Jerry Allison is the drummer. He co-wrote this and "That'll Be the Day" with Buddy. He's still alive today (82 as of August 31, 2021). Peggy Sue was his girlfriend (later wife who he was later married to until she died in 2018).

He adjusted the sound for either Crickets songs (more forceful drumming) or Buddy Holly solo songs (hand claps, just brushed cymbals, even hitting a cardboard box to soften the percussion for the more yearning songs of this type).
He's the best part for me, "the drummer!" It's wonderful to know he's still alive. It's that beat 💓 in his heart ❤
@@number1cabdriveriniowacity736 It's because he's playing paradiddles RLRR LRLL whereas most rock drummers, unless they'd learnt the rudiments, would stick to single strokes RLRLRLRL etc. , but paradiddles gives it a distinct, subtler feel.

He's singing "Piggy Sue" to a pig at the end.
Sam turns to him "Buddy, try 'Peggy Sue'."
And he leaps.
I've never seen it written but Petty may have had regrets as he was just 57 when he passed in 1984.
I was 11 when he and the others died and I still remember my mother telling me when she picked me up after school.
