  • Good to get your approval, Pete. Hopefully we'll get the 'old studios' ideas developed before the end of the year.

  • the crickets are amazing, let them in the rock and roll hall of fame

  • @TheJayman213 They are going into a two beat triplet feel. No beats are actually dropped.

  • The Crickets on the video are : Sonny Curtis Joe B Mauldin Bass Glen D Hardin Piano (former Elvis Presley Pianist and arranger of The Wonder of You) Jerry Allison Drums

  • he wrote it but the Bobby Fuller version was the ONE!

  • Nice, really enjoy this.

    From The Netherlands

  • what happens at 0:031 and other parts? do they leave out half a bar or something? i don't get it

  • I love that the Crickets are still at it. Interesting how this performance seems to be influenced by the Bobby Fuller Four cover. They can still put on a show.

  • A few chords, a killer groove, a bit of rebellion.  It's just the ultimate rock and roll song, isn't it? I hope bands keep covering this one forever.

  • Shame he left the guitar solo out...

  • the Original sounds really nice .. up lifting and all. but I am more in love with the Dead Kennedy cover ..
