The Buddy Holly Story - Last Concert

Ending scene from The Buddy Holly Story (1978), with Gary Busey in his Oscar-nominated title role. This was Buddy Holly's last performance before getting on the ill-fated plane to Moorhead, MN that night along with Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens.

Gary should have received an Oscar for his performance in this movie.

I can say tears fall from my eyes, just like no other singer! Buddy is Special!

[@brianneale2006]

I was quite young when Buddy holly was famous and I purchased His song Peggy sue on venyl disc or record that was many years ago as I am now 78 years old and still love Rock and Roll, the old Rock and Roll too

[@reinhardneef4074]

Buddy das Musical habe ich 5 mal gesehen, einfach grandios und dramatisch zugleich. Thank you Buddy for all.👍👍👍

[@gottasweep4189]

I do not often cry by movie's, but this Ending made me cry. See how much fun Buddy, Ritchie and Big Bopper had on stage, and then they died. I'm German and in the German Version he was reading The text at the end with a sad Voice, and this get me so hard. I can't stop crying watching this. I Love this movie. R.I.P Buddy,Ritchie, and Big Bopper

[@neilbillybob3065]

Gary played this part great... His own vocals and live band playing..very good movie about the great Buddy he left us some beautiful music that is timeless

[@sirstiffpilchard]

I appreciate that Gary and his band all played 'live', and they all sounded damn good from start to finish.👍🎵

[@JettTyler17]

I think its nice that the film did a medley of Buddy's greatest hits to end the movie with! One of my favourite biopics!

[@stephenvine3104]

So sad buddy was taken so young he really set the template for future rock music and generations that followed his music is simply brilliant and timeless !!

[@cbkp68]

Buddy is pure Heart & Soul, even when carachter, excelent!

[@ManCity52012]

Can watch this scene over and over, always send chills down my back.... Can only imagine what he could have done....

[@carlosvega3203]

Estas en lo más cierto,que seria d estos hombres aún vivos, uuuff!!!

[@jamesh2003]

It's a tragedy that these 3 guys never made the 60s that decade was made for them.

[@jtawatere1844]

Yes an amazing performance from Gary Busey

[@DiegoDiaz-sl9wr]

Fantástica interpretación.....es fabuloso. ...

[@bayaavarn4349]

Thank u very much...

[@davechipling169]

Great film ,but couldn't believe they had him playing a fender telecaster and then ended off with a large headstock strat that came out in the late sixties a monumental cock up when he was famous for bringing the Stratocaster guitar into rock n Roll music !

[@carlosvega3203]

Hey hey!!! hombre que buena buenísima caracterísacion.

[@benhack602]

That night was so... but so musically and soundly perfect, that they no longer had anything else to do on earth and fate took them

[@alanstevenson-graham6268]

I watch this movie a lot

[@alanstevenson-graham6268]

Gary was ace as Buddy

[@J.cd33]

One thing that annoys me: they didn’t play the last song buddy actually played that AMAZING night which was “ Brown eyed handsome man” I still remember it.

[@KGBeast.]

He sung that'll be the day when i die on the day he died

[@WOODBINEXX]

what could have been....so sad x

[@sarashahril2766]

so sad

[@龍-k7c]

美しい!🌺🌺🌺

[@kotatsu141]

もっと聴きたかったよ…

[@MarkGreaves]

🤓🎶🤓🖐️🌟 mg love it

[@andrewdog-gonewaylon5915]

All the Fender guitars he used in the movie are 70s or late 60s guitars.

[@davechipling169]

He used the wrong guitar throughout the whole movie even the strat at the end was a late sixties/seventies !

[@D.L91]

It was Garys own guitar. He played everything live and needed his guitar as he was used to it. Not a big deal. Great performance.

[@KGBeast.]

when the credits began i synced it up with audio adrenaline goobdye and damn it fits well

[@michaelnaisbitt7926]

And the moral of this story is IF YOU ARE ANY KIND OF ARTIST MUSIC ACTING WRITING ANYTHING do not travel by light aircraft avoid any single engineer aircraft the number of artists we have lost due to plane crashes is quite long forget schedules go by train if necessary be safe

[@blueshadow7385]

That strat is a late 60s model.. ('69 or '70)

[@marilyns8497]

Nobody cares...

[@blueshadow7385]

Wrong. I care.

[@a.jwalter7227]

Blueshadow73 at least is a strat

He is just telling us the facts so Marilyn S like if you agree if he or she should shut the fuck up! Oops I asked for likes!

[@constantinmoisina7397]

😔♥️

[@David-uq2uk]

Did not even research fender as this strat was not even made in the 50,s with the large headstock it was introduced around 68/69 10 years after Holly died

[@lisahenderson3441]

What music is playing during the credits?

[@paulnicholson2370]

gone but not foggoten

[@chasbeanpole8799]

The World lost its best talent on the 3rd of February in 1959. Fact.

[@MdickieFilms]

What kind of glasses gary was wearing?

[@1888gp]

oakley

[@chiasanzes9770]

I ws born decemeber 1958 never knew their music until later but still I say. Why the hell they had to take that bloody plane?! Yes I do know it was cold but do you not have any cloves, mittens and other winter clothing etc there in USA? Even in these days I have seen Americans going bare hands and blowing in their hands in snow. Weird country is a USA that I say a backward country . And I do not say RIP because I think that is weird too how long it took Americans to check out what had happen for Peterson's plane! "Look I think I saw a plane maybe going down. Now I am going home and sleep?" Who does that?

[@jonasmagnusson2099]

Good voice?

[@edwardjohnston4618]

A good film, but spoiled by all the wrong guitars

[@iansutherlandcraig]

And many other inaccuracies, including a non existent orchestra for the Winter Dance Party tour.

[@phililpb]

they could not afford a 54 strat there value was already sky high. It is a movie not a documentary

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

@@phililpb So these people can't listen to music and appreciate it for what it is? I agree with you.

[@phililpb]

@@lawrencetaylor4101 yep thats not a 54 strat. but that is not buddy holly either

[@johncavanagh446]

Yes Buddy Holly is a better Rockn roll singer than Elvis presley he was a danger?

[@vivhiggins5656]

Know i dont think so tell that too all his fans and all the woman that loved elvis he was not only hansome and had the lot and elvis was kind and careing and neaver sed a bad word eny eny and the bad word a bout eny one i liked them both and i was a child then and every bad we say a bout some one mounts up in hell and up too the person thats believes or not we cart see the earth we breath in we cart see the dark till it starts going dark yes and i like buddy holly big bopper and richie valance,rip too them all,

[@grahamprice3230]

If they asked nicely Emma Holly used to own his original Strat.Averry early low number.Is it still in the family?.Would have been a nice touch.
