Among the British artists influenced by Buddy Holly were the Hollies. In fact they Hollies named themselves after Holly (as in Buddy...not the tree or shrub genus Ilex).
The Beatles didn't name themelves after Buddy Holly. I'm sure that the decision to name their group The Beatles was influenced by the name The Crickets.
I read somewhere that when Buddy Holly, Joe B. Mauldin and Jerry Allison were trying to decide on a band name, one of the names considered was The Beetles but the thought of a beetle getting stepped on was too gross.
Fantastic song I have been a Buddy Holly fan since 1958 and have not heard any one match his fantastic voice and talent.Playing your songs everyday to cheer me up.
:( sad to hear of his untimely death...i usually dont listen 2 such old music...but old is gold....i do prefer metal and rock....without holly rock wudnt be......pop hiphop n techno just ruined music
I remember tuning in on that TV-show just to hear this tune, hell, it wasn't even the original, but it was such an awesome sound I had to listen anyway.
Buddy was and always will be so cool.I came to this song on one of the collection albums after i had been listening to Buddy since i was a kid.What a gem of a song.And what a talented,talented man.Buddy Holly LIVES!!!!!!
Right, Kat. March 3 1958 I was in the Southampton Gaumont watching him and the Crickets. Best concert ever.

I swear modern "artists" are trying to destroy the music industry rather than make it better. That's what it seems like.
