Buddy Holly
Buddy Holly CD (1958) Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Norman Petty songs
 $6.49   
Originally released as Coral Records (57210). Meanwhile, the instantly recognizable "Peggy Sue" (echo and hiccups) and "Everyday" (wistful melody, haunting celeste accompaniment) remain among the most perfectly crafted singles ever made.
This is part of "Rock 'N' Roll 50th Anniversary" series.
Recorded at Norman Petty Studios, Clovis, New Mexico and Bell Sound Studios, New York, New York between 1957 & 1958. This 1958 release is one of the first indisputably great rock albums. Holly's range here still impresses; he's equally fluent with rockabilly (or at least, his own highly original take on it, as witness "Rave On" and "I'm Gonna Love You, Too"), R&B (a cover of Little Richard's "Ready Teddy" that has, as they used to say, the real gone spirit), and even a sort of riff-driven folk rock ("Words of Love") that presages power pop. Includes liner notes by Bill Dahl.
Personnel: Buddy Holly (vocals, guitar); Al Caiola, Donald Arnone, Niki Sullivan, George Barnes, Al Chernet (guitar); Sam Taylor (tenor saxophone); Norman Petty (piano, organ, celeste); Vi Petty, Ernest Hayes, C.W. Kendall, Jr. (piano); Joe B.

Norman Petty discography
$26.15 
Holly's untimely death robbed pop of a performer adept as a solo act and as leader of his group, the Crickets. He wrote, or co-wrote, most of his own material at a time when many singers relied on outside material, and his sparse, but effective, guitar style proved highly influential, particularly on British beat groups. The Buddy Holly Story abounds with songs now indisputably pop classics and confirms Holly's status as a major figure. Prinicpally recorded at Norman Petty's Studio, Clovis, New Mexico between 1954 and 1959. Includes liner notes by Billy Altman.
Digitally remastered by Erick Labson (MCA Media Studios, North Hollywood, California).
Few artists have exercised such a profound influence in such a short space of time.
