Professor Tull, SASS #66742 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 http://youtube.com/watch?v=rof_h84yMUI Yesterday, on what would have been Buddy Hollys 75th birthday, he received his star on Hollywoods walk of fame.Present were his wife, Maria Elena, actor Gary Busey, and others.Not many people realize, that the title for his first hit "That'll Be The Day" was taken from a line John Wayne says in the movie 'The Searchers". Great line - great song.The above song is not one of his more well known tunes, but one of my favorites.What are some of your favorite lesser known Buddy Holly songs from before "The Day The Music Died".TULL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
