About the book
Remembering Buddy is the definitive biography of Buddy Holly, written with the co-operation of Holly's family and friends, and his musical and business colleagues. In consummate detail, it traces Holly's life from his birth in Lubbock, Texas, in 1936, to his tragic plane crash 23 years later. Buddy Holly was a rock pioneer. In an era when almost all pop stars were manufactured by the music industry, he wrote his own material, led his own group, and recorded a catalogue of classic songs. He influenced everyone from The Beatles and Bob Dylan to Bruce Springsteen and Elvis Costello. Though Holly's career was brief, world-wide sales of his records run into many millions, and each year the anniversary of his birth is celebrated across two continents. Wherever rock'n'roll is played, the legend of Buddy Holly lives on.
