I have bought this cd not only for myself, as i was brought up with his music as my mother played him all the time when i was a kid, but i work in a residential home for the elderly; and i noticed if ever any of Buddy Holly's music came on the radio at work, the residents would be tapping their feet and singing along to it. so i thought, i will buy a Buddy Holly cd for them. and they loved it. unfortunately somebody else loved it more, and it has mysteriously disappeared-i know who you are-! anyway, i have found it again on Bolo for a very low price, and will be playing it again for my Buddy Holly fans-my elderly clients-at work soon. his music really brightens their day, and takes them back. gone are the days of Vera Lynn and Darby and Joan, our society of clients in care, are now the teddy boys and girls of the 50's. soon they will be Beatles and Stones fans.........hang on that's me!..not long now then, i just hope one of my carers thinks to bring in The White Album, or Sticky Fingers!edit: the outcome:I have since been playing this on a dementia unit where i work since it arrived, and my clients love it. we have a nun on the unit too who is a client, and i caught her dancing to 'That'll be the Day' with her zimmer frame! along with all the others, some were dancing, some were singing along, and some were tapping their feet. music transcends all different backgrounds, no matter what your upbringing. Buddy Holly is sadly missed, and loved by so many. but his legacy has brought happiness to so many different cultures, religions, and ages. no more sitting in front of a full volume tv watching Jeremy Kyle for my clients, they are, as i write this, bopping to Buddy Holly.

Bought this for my Dad who has dementia, he responds to this era of music. He was toe tapping and singing so the CD was worth every penny. Very quick delivery too, was told it'd be with me by Wednesday, arrived on the Monday, couldn't ask for more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could do with digital clean-up but still great

I had to have this album as the other best ofs miss off brown eyed handsome man. It doesn't sound quite as clear as the versions on prime music, although the sticker on it said remastered, I guess that was pre digital. But this is with a doubt the best buddy holly collection and probably more how it sounded in the 50s. Worth it for the song selection but can't help wishing there was a digitally remastered MP3 version

5.0 out of 5 stars A new Buddy Holly fan

s. · 22 December 2013

I recently went to see the Buddy Holly Show at my nearby theatre and although I am ten years younger than Buddy wouldhave been I never came across his music when I was growing up. It was all Beatles, Rolling Stones etc. After the showI was hooked and looked on Bolo to find a cd. I now play his music around the house and love it.

looking for an overview of Buddy Holly's work? They don't come much better than this. We can all wish this one was in there or that, but someone somewhere had to make a decision on what went in and what didn't. The result is a good all round representation of the skill, the talent, the sheer joy that was Buddy Holly's music. It is hard to believe all this happened in just 18 months. If anyone ever left a legacy, he did.

変人が作る素晴らしいロック

立. · 7 October 2006

とにかく変人である。おそらく50年代にバディ・ホリーが存在しなければビートルズが『サージェント〜』を作るのもビーチ・ボーイズが『ペット・サウンズ』を完成させるのももう少し遅れていたのかもしれない。それほどバディ・ホリーはロックというテリトリーで革新的なことをやり続けた。彼の死後ビートルズやビーチ・ボーイズによって信じられないスタイルの楽曲やレコーディング技術が誕生したが、その礎を築いたのは間違いなくロック界のマッド・サイエンティストであるバディ・ホリーなのだ。もちろんシンガーとしても希有な変人的才能を持っており、彼の歌には当時のロック・シンガーが持ち得なかった世界観が漂っている。単純なスリー・コードのようだが、『Oh Boy』はなかなか侮れない作りになっているし、『That'll Be The Day』などはコピーをしようとしてもチンピラグループではなかなか雰囲気がだせないようになっている。また当時のロックスターがブラック・ミュージックに憧れライフスタイルまでも黒人の真似をした(ダブダブのスーツを着て、強力なポマードで髪の毛を固める)のに反して、バディ・ホリーは細身のスーツに喜劇役者ハロルド・ロイドのような大きな眼鏡をかけて……。本当に後々まで生きていたらどれほどの変人シンガーになっていたことかと、考えれば考えるほど空恐ろしくなるのである。
