In spite of his brief career, Buddy Holly was very influential and is considered one of the pioneers of rock 'n' roll music. He was an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter, best known for his work with The Crickets. Born on September 07, 1936 in Lubbock, TX, USA, he tragically died at the age of 22 in a plane crash on February 03, 1959 just outside of Mason City, IA, USA. This day is referred to by many as "The Day The Music Died," which are lyrics from the song American Pie by Don McLean.
Buddy Holly's impact on music can still be felt today. His contributions earned him a place among the first inductees into both the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame (Performer) and Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1986.
Although his life was cut short, Buddy Holly left behind a lasting legacy that continues to inspire generations of musicians.

Of all the singers and musicians who sadly died young and unfulflled, the loss of Buddy Holly, in February 1959, was perhaps the most shocking But he packed a lot into his tragically brief life, and during 1957 and 58 he and his fellow Crickets spent an enormous amount of time in Norman Petty's studio in Clovis, New Mexico.When he wasn't working on his own songs, demos and sessions, Holly often played guitar or sang back- up vocals for artists like Gary Tollett, Billy Walker, Jack Huddle, Sherry Davis, Carolyn Hester, Charlie Phillips, Buddy Knox, Waylon Jennings, and more. This compilation presents thirty-four such sides, most of which were recorded in Clovis, on which he "guested", usually as a guitarist.The jury is out on whether Buddy defnitely played on a couple of these, but as they've long been included in discographies, it would be remiss to omit them.
