(189) BUDDY HOLLY'S WORDS OF LOVE - THE BEATLES

The Paramount Theatre in New York; big Rock and Roll shows were put on there and they were so exciting! Here's a preserved performance of Buddy Holly and the Crickets doing "Peggy Sue" thanks to a YouTube contributor at the Paramount, and it appears to us that might be Kitty Carlisle doing the introductions with a bevy of prim debutants behind her! Now, earlier in this blog (use the search feature to locate other postings that include Buddy Holly and the Crickets!)I mentioned meeting Buddy in New York and recording myself with the Crickets left behind when Buddy went on the tour that he died in a plane crash in 1959. And we've been saying that before the British Invasion of America the Americans invaded Britain.
