BUDDY HOLLY & THE CRICKETS The First Three Albums (2009 UK CD album - The thirty-five historic tracks that make up this compilation were all recorded in a highly-prolific two-year burst of creativity, between January 1956 and January 1958, by which time both Buddy Holly and The Crickets were established as major chart names. 'The Chirping Crickets' LP included The Crickets' million-selling singles 'That'll Be The Day' and 'Oh Boy', whilst Holly's eponymously-titled album included his equally-successful 'solo' hits, 'Peggy Sue' and 'Rave On'. This compilation also features the eleven tracks which Buddy recorded for US Decca in 1956, including his original, slower version of the stellar 'That'll Be The Day', under which title they were first released in 1958. Complete with a picture booklet containing full session details, including personnel, recording dates and more.)
