The Beginnings of Buddy Holly & The Crickets until the End. As Told by J.I., Joe B, & Sonny

[@RG-5834]

This is priceless Rock and Roll history. It’s just so sad and yet also so interesting to see these guys talking about the genius that was Buddy Holly. Both Jerry Allison and Joe B Mauldin were such genuinely great guys! I am completely obsessed with Buddy Holly and his music, and his legacy and music will live on forever.

[@EnlightenedRogue]

Cool Beans, Joe. That’s the same Sonny Curtis that composed & sang the Mary Tyler Moore theme “Love is all Around.” He also showed up on Clapton’s first solo LP. These musicians are the roots of R&R.

@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum One can only speculate career Buddy might have had, and how greater he would have become, had he not died in 1959.

CBS this morning did a great segment on Sony Curtis 1/09/21. Did not know that until I caught the episode!

[@lowelledlee8019]

Joe, I’m 71 years old. In 1963 I lived in a little town 13 miles straight west from Lubbock. I was 13 years old that year. My dad was going to a barber school in Lubbock. All the people that worked there had known Buddy Holly personally. Buddy came in school to get his hair cut. They loved to tell Buddy Holley stories. All Buddy wanted to talk about was music and his songs and his band. That same year my 15 year old brother was getting to where he could play the guitar my dad had bought him pretty well. One Sunday night he brought his guitar to the youth group at our Church. He was playing his guitar around the kids and they were loving it. They kept bugging him to play and sing some rock and roll. He told the kids that he couldn’t sing but that I could. Everybody started begging me to sing but I was the shyest kid you could know. They kept begging to the point that was extremely embarrassed. My brother told them that I could sing just like Buddy Holly. So he started playing Peggy Sue. I finally gave in and agreed to sing it but only with my back facing them. So he played and I sang. The kids loved and we were hooked. We played for years with cover bands doing all the great songs of the 60’s. We finally quit playing rock and roll and began playing jazz. From the time I was fifteen to age 35 I had been offered six opportunities to make a record from various wealthy people who didn’t know anything about the music business. They told me it was true they didn’t know the business but had influential friends who did. I was always afraid they would invest their money and loose it. The very first offer came from someone who had heard me sing Patches by Dickey Lee. When I was young my voice very high and clear so it was a perfect fit. We played many prestigious events and won some nice awards. There is much more to tell but too much for this venue. Love your show Joe! Thanks for sharing so much info on your show. Later.

[@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum]

Great story Lowell!!! Thanks for sharing. Funny… I was just talking to my good friend J.I Allison this afternoon. You know his wife was Peggy Sue and he and Buddy wrote that song. … best, Joe

[@robbylong2748]

That first line from JI makes the mood, “someone should have talked Buddy out of getting on that plane in a snow storm” sad!!! This was well done, people just don’t understand how important Buddy Holly and the crickets were to Rock n Roll music, the beginnings of it, to me he’s the father of the modern rock band, plain and simple!

[@jameswitham2141]

Buddy Holly was without doubt the father of modern rock and roll. 4 piece band: lead singer guitarist and songwriter, drummer, rhythm guitarist, double bass. Beatles: lead guitarist singer, rhythm guitarist singer, bass guitarist singer, and drummer (occasional singer). 3 songwriters. Sounds familiar? I cried the day I heard of the plane crash. I was eleven and in some ways have never really gotten over it. Most of the big British bands have paid tribute to Holly in one way or another. The Beatles did a great cover of 'words of love', the Stones a different cover of 'not fade away'.

[@Jackg1949]

Hi Joe, you have some of the best interviews, but this one really stands out for me. I was 10 years old when Buddy Hollys plane crashed. I still remember my mom bringing in the newspaper and she was just crushed at what happened. And so true as J I said this was just 18 months of Buddy’s talent and we were blessed to have had him....thanks again!

[@joepalooka2145]

Really wonderful video. I have loved Buddy Holly and the Crickets all my life, and the older I get I love them even more. They talk about their early recordings in a matter of fact way, but to us fans those records are absolutely fundamental moments of pure genius and inspiration that still sound as great as ever. Over in England some teenage kids who later became the Beatles sure picked up on how great Buddy Holly and the Crickets were. So did many, many others. Buddy's loss was a huge tragedy beyond words and we can only speculate on the great music that he would have produced in later years. The Crickets went on to make many excellent records on their own, and Sonny Curtis is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. I'm a fan of them all forever.

Thanks for this, Joe. This was particularly interesting to me because I also grew up in Lubbock. Buddy and the Crickets were probably around 18 years older than I was, so I didn’t really grow up listening to their music. I grew up with The Beatles on Ed Sullivan instead of Buddy Holly. I would hear all of Buddy’s hits on the radio growing up, but that was about all I knew about him and the Crickets. Really interesting to put faces to all the names! Thanks again!

Mr Anderson could of lied to Buddy and said all flights are cancelled tonight .Wait till the daylight.If they had well maintained buses it wouldn't of even been a thought . Maybe the band could of talked him out of it instead of agreeing to fly .But Buddy made the horrible decision to chance it and as Waylon said ,what young pilot would say no to Buddy Holly .The crash changed the lives of evereyone involved families ,friends ,band members and their futures , Buddy 's unborn child , plans of Ritchie ,and the Bopper, and Roger Petersons life .

[@lockedin60]

Joe, Buddy was very smart about music and the whole recording process. He had so much potential and even for the short time he was here on earth he influenced a lot of bands. No telling how much bigger he could have been if he had lived. He could have gone in any direction with his music. The other members of the Crickets were just as influential but maybe they didn't always get the credit early on. Once Buddy died their contributions were brought to the forefront. I just learned by reading Wikipedia that Brit season and guitar ordinaire Albert Lee played with the Crickets. As time moves on we continue to lose a lot of these founding members of early rock and country music. Just look at where all this talent was born or spent considerable amount of time in Lubbock Texas.
