Fool's Paradise - Buddy Holly Lives!

Live from the final night of the 50th Anniversary tour in 2009 at the Rene M Caisse Memorial Centre in Bracebridge. Song by Linsley and LeGlaire - Buddy was best known for this one in the UK. The original was recorded on Feb 14, 1958 by Jerry , Joe B and Buddy in Clovis. Here the tribute show band Buddy Holly Lives! recreates their sound and Joe B and Jerry sing the Roses overdubs - something that would not have happened live during Buddy's lifetime because Joe B and Jerry did not sing live.

ahh this was so lovely, Dave!

I really enjoy hearing the banter you guys have before and after songs

[rockabillyotis]

That was my buddy Stu who I have been playing with since the late eighties in a couple of bands - Ironically the first one was called The Rave (after Holly's Rave on)

Good job lads! I did not know that Buddy's

bandmates didn't sing live, but thankfully your guys do 'cause it sure sounds good.

[rockabillyotis]

Apparently they didn't -But we are all more familiar with the studio versions which were thankfully overdubbed with backing vocals my guys emulate

The orange one (5120) has the TV Jones pickups in it (EM2) - what a difference they make...
