ABSTRACT

Buddy Holly’s music developed considerably on the records made under his own name, mostly at Petty’s studio in Clovis. The backing is usually by members of the Crickets, although the record labels only said “with instrumental accompaniment.” These tracks are the twelve which appeared on the album Buddy Holly in 1958, with the addition of four later tracks-“Rave On,” “Take Your Time,” “Heartbeat,” and “Well All Right”—and others not issued until after Holly’s death, including “Love’s Made a Fool of You” and two songs cut with the R&B saxophonist King Curtis: “Reminiscing” and “Come Back Baby.”
