(234) THE CRICKETS (WITHOUT BUDDY HOLLY) 1962

The Crickets, without Buddy Holly, did go on for some time. I'd recorded with the Cricket's left behind while I was in Texas, Norman Petty the producer. I was shocked by the death of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and the Big Bopper, who I had met in New York.

Now if you search for Buddy Holly using the search feature of this Google blogger, you'll read a three part story we wrote about the Day The Music Died...

THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA (on the Youtube presentation below) is another of the Cricket's songs. They're moving towards surf music and away from Bobby Darin's "Splish Splash" in a tub!
