Video duration: 146 seconds
The original was recorded April 8th, 1957 at Norman Petty Studios with Buddy, Jerry, Joe B. and Vi Petty on Piano. Partly written by Bob Thiele (nom de plume as Stanley Clayton). This was the flip side of the posthumous Uk release of "Look At me". It failed to chart. Holly's sister commented in a recent interview that this was her favourite song of his.

We'd be there in a heartbeat, but we have our hands full in Canada for the moment. San Diego is paradise compared to Ontario in the winter. But Ontario is where we'll be doing our tour of the 50th anniversary of the Winter Dance Party this year and well into 2009. Thanks Winesparkler! If you're ever up in Canada check our website to see where we are playing and come backstage to say hello!

I would love to see you guys perform live. You are the best! Thank you! If you can come to San Diego, I'll see you then!

Mr. Holly, I think you are amazing! Your music will live on forever! You might be one of my favorite American acts. You and Roy Orbison are my two favorites! I didn't know that Buddy Holly and Roy Orbison were from the same part of Texas. In fact, they were "Next Town Neighbors". Roy Orbison & Buddy Holly = Always Remembered

This, to us, is the holy grail of comments. This is why we created Buddy Holly Live! - To tell the real story with real events, real names, real songs, real instruments. Our motivation was in part motivated by the telecaster, the wrong names and the inaccuracies we saw in that movie. Thank you TL250Rider for noticing!
By: TL250Rider. on 10 Aug 08, 09:42:41
This is good better than that movie The Buddy Holly Story. The Buddy Holly Story The Movie was really bad Change The Crickets Names DUMB When Did Buddy Holly Play a Telecaster. I remember reading about making the movie then seeing it was almost as bad as Disco Music killing top 40 radio.

They HAVE spent a lot of time on the details but the voice doesn't sound like Buddy ...it's much too low.
