  • Young and beautiful.

  • As best I can research, the film was likely shot at Magnolia Gardens in Houston, Texas on August 7, 1955. It has to be July 1955 or later, because Scotty Moore did not have that guitar prior to July, 1955. It's obviously in a warm weather area and outdoors.

    I have other still pictures of Magnolia Gardens that look much like this, so Houston is likely. He played Houston many times in 1954-55, including August 7, 1955.

    He would be on national television 5 months later.

  • @JubalCalif You're talking cheese..

    I doubt it was the "Whoppee Cushion Serenade". It wasn't well known until '58 when Freddie Flatulence & His Five Hot Toots hit the charts with there version. It was a gas! In the words of the immortal Bard, "Hey dude...who cut da cheese?"

  • @wayneypayney Buddy Holly filmed this himself on April 29th 1955 (Friday - 8.00pm) at the Cotton Club, Lubbock, Texas and said the song was Tweedle Dee. His widow said that buddy had said it was Tweedle Dee after buddy holly died. Hope that helps

  • Buddy Holly filmed this on April 29 1955 (Friday - 8.00pm) Cotton Club, Lubbock, Texas Tweedle Dee was one of the songs performed

  • @Pallazero It's very important to say idiot. It makes them feel less small and pathetic. Little children are like that.

  • @Pallazero

  • @jaxonave was it important to say "idiot"?
