Buddy Holly (September 7, 1936 – February 3, 1959)

“Buddy, I can still see you with that shy grin on your face Seems like your hair was always a little messed up, kinda out of place Now not many people actually knew you, or understood how you felt But just a song from, just a song from you could make the coldest heart melt“ Eddie Cochran, Three Stars

February 13, 1955

Elvis performed at the Fair Park Coliseum, Lubbock, Texas at 4.00 p.m.

The advertisement said: “Elvis Presley, The Be-Bop Western Star of the Louisiana Hayride, returns to Lubbock.”

This was the first booking that Bob Neal had obtained directly through The Colonel and the group was paid $350 for their performance and shared the bill with Charline Arthur, Jimmie Rodgers Snow, son of Hank, and Benjamin Francis “Whitey” Ford, a comedian and instrumentalist that performed under the name of “The Duke of Paducah”.

For this performance Dave Stone added a local aspiring country duo to open the show, “Buddy and Bob”. They were Charles Hardin Holley and Bob Montgomery and in addition to performing locally they had their own half hour radio show Sundays on KDAV where their repertoire was mainly country

(Holley’s mother always thought that Charles Hardin was rather a long name so simply called him Buddy).

If there was a single influence that indelibly shaped Buddy Holly’s life and music, it was Elvis. “Presley just blew Buddy away,” recalls Sonny Curtis. “None of us had ever seen anything like Elvis, the way he could get the girls jumping up and down, and that definitely impressed Holly. But it was the music that really turned Buddy around. He loved Presley’s rhythm –it wasn’t country and it wasn’t blues –it was somewhere in the middle and it suited just fine. After seeing Elvis, Buddy had only one way to go,” Rock and Roll. Buddy himself would later tell Billboard columnist Ren Grevatt that “without Elvis Presley none of us would have made it.“
