The credit says Petty and Holly wrote this song. This is inaccurate. This was actually written by Buddy Holly, his drummer Jerry Allison and secretly along with his mother. His mother did not want credit since she was a devout Christian and did not want to be tangled in rock 'n' roll at this time. Howard Petty is a thief and never wrote any songs with Holly. He just wanted credited in exchange for Holly using his studio. Petty is a scum bag and probably roasting in hell now for being so greedy
@rhall4th no, they did "that'll be the day" on their first appearance and then "peggy sue" on the second. The buddy holly story said they did but they did not!

The 78 format had to be the best sounding of all the vinyl's. Thank you for sharing this gem.
