WHAT AN INSULT TO THE CRICKETS
Mark | Santa Monica, CA | 02/22/2008
(1 out of 5 stars)

"
This album cover shows Buddy Holly with his band "The Crickets" but...



For some incomprehensible reason, around 1985-90 someone in authority gave license to a group called the Picks to overdub any and all original Buddy Holly recordings with their vocal harmonies.



These modern overdubs of Holly's 1950s classics deface his finest work, and are widely distributed as "Buddy Holly and the Picks".



As result, there are surely a lot of people out there who think Holly's band was the Picks, and that Holly and the Picks were not very good (they're not).



Buddy Holly was an exceptional artist. Treat yourself to the real thing."
