Buddy Holly Review

1 out of 1 Found the view helpful


This song is probably one of the best kept secrets in Buddy Holly's repertoire. This song rocks! The guitar licks are bright and enrgetic, the vocals are exciting and alive. In the final verse the drummer Jerry Allison does a neat drum trick immitating the sound of a bat hitting a ball ("he hit a high fly into the stands" Drum). The lyrics (written by Chuck Berry) are very original, not your average pop song lyrics. This song has driving rhythms and a solid beat. This is by far the best version of the song. It is even better than Berry's original.

Thanks to Joe Leone for submitting the review.
