Buddy Holly (Charles Hardin Holley)

1936 - 1959

The bespectacled Texan remains one of rock and roll's most revered figures. He added soulful rhythm to the country sounds he heard growing up in Lubbock and, in just three years, forged a style that became a blueprint for the British Invasion. "That'll Be the Day" hit number-one in 1957. "Peggy Sue" followed it into the Top 5. Those songs, plus "Maybe Baby," "Oh Boy" and "Rave On," epitomized The Crickets' sound. Their two-guitar, bass and drums lineup became rock's standard. Such subsequent legends as The Beatles ("Words of Love"), The Rolling Stones ("Not Fade Away"), Peter & Gordon ("True Love Ways") and Bobby Vee--who filled his place on a Winter Dance Party tour after "The Day the Music Died"--covered Holly's songs and acknowledged his inspiration. Holly died at 22 in the February 3rd, 1959 plane crash that also took the lives of Richie Valens and The Big Bopper.
