This is a terrific job! I mentioned this somewhere else so I don't want to overtell the story. But I was living in Fargo North Dakota in February, 1959 and we had plans to attend the dance party in Moorehead, Minnesoata (across the Red River) -- Buddy was scheduled to land a Hector Field (the old airport) only 6 miles from our farm -- but we did not hear about the plane crash details right away as a passenger jet had crashed too. Buddy was one of my first heros! Thanks! for the memory.
Thank you for sharing that - It means a lot to me. I feel that we all connect to Buddy on some level because of his unassuming yet brilliant demeanour. Indeed he is our "Buddy". He gave us a lifetime of music.
Holly was influenced by the Latin rhythms of the time - I believe he co-wrote this one with Bob Montgomery (his original partner). Bob is the father of the very talented Kevin Montgomery - singer songwriter guitarist
Love it!! You even have the hiccup down. That drumbeat is great. You've so got the Holly tone down. Wow, it's like hearing the Clovis sound all over again.
You lot are good. I've watched all your performances and you interpret the songs of Buddy nicely in a new way, although still close to the original. You bring the music back to life. Thanks for sharing.
Have a look at my efforts if you get a chance (just practising at home)
I am truly impressed. good job gentlemen! very few can actually pull off such a great tribute.

Is there almost like a calypso feel to this song...I like the guitar parts a lot. Great band performance!
