One of my favorite tunes from Buddy. This was somewhat different than his previous rock tunes. He was still evolving musically. Imagine that. What a genius this man was.
Just over 60 years since the great Buddy Holly left us and his music is still simply wonderful to listen to. I have recently watched a documentary about his trip to the UK in 1958 when his British fans discovered how great he was at the tender age of 21.The pizzicato violins on this number are superb and the late great John Barry had several pop hits with this type of playing before he went on to his James Bond movies period.
Dear BUDDY HOLLY , IT WILL ALWAYS MATTER that YOU were here on Earth and MATTERED to us as YOU still do - and always will, love from your pal forever , Joe Nania a.k.a. Hollywood Joe
