This 90 track collection features every known 1957 Buddy Holly recording, the hits of which were issued alternately as by The Crickets ("That'll Be the Day", "Oh Boy", "Maybe Baby") and as by Buddy Holly ("Words of Love", "Peggy Sue", "Listen to Me"). Also here are the album tracks of the period, alternate takes, demos, air shots and more.
As well as all of the 1957 recordings marketed as by both the Crickets and as by Buddy Holly, this three CD set also includes a wealth of tracks on which Buddy and his friends backed other Country, Pop and Rock 'N' Roll singers in the Clovis studio - such as the first (?) recordings by future folk star Carolyn Hester - along with the soundtracks from TV shows, on-air interviews and amusingly-tailored promo jingles to massage the egos of various music industry figures.
