AS we all know a.k.a. I googled it, this song was originally released posthumously. Buddy Holly died in a dogfight over the skies of Kansas in some kind of race war with Ritchie Valens I think, but that’s besides the point.
In a way this album was a bit uninspiring -not that I listened to it- because it’s your typical line up of pop standards from a movie takes place in the dawn of American RAWK. Howevrr it turns out that the familiar tune Peggy that we all know was produced after Holly shot down Valens and some fat dude. This version was the “original”. I think I read he taped this alone in his hotel room with his guitar. Later, record label goons added so much garbage to the track that you can’t even here Holly’s actual playing.
Makes you wonder what else gets drowned out. I’m positive the theme to Alf is pretty legit if you strip it down. Like Let It Be…Naked, except it would be a naked alien puppet.
Think about it.
