God Bless You, Buddy Holly If he hadn't slowed his singing of "That'll Be the Day" at a Decca recording session in Nashville, trying to sound country—"hillbilly"—and nothing at all like rock 'n roll, he might have been able to say why he hurried everything else, floored it, ignoring comparisons to Elvis and the mob-angry condemnation of the First Baptist Church of Lubbock, Texas. Later that year, at the offices of Coral Records in New York, negotiating a record deal for the Crickets, as yet unsigned and mistakenly booked (sight unseen) to play the Apollo— this is 1957, and before white acts played the Apollo— it's clear to Buddy Holly that he's an Honorary Negro and that the song to open with is (what else) "Oh, Boy!" "Oh, boy! It's a crazy feelin" he sings and applause breaks apart in waves of handclaps and dancing. Like the King said, It's all right, Mama. Buddy Holly & the Crickets follow Sam Cooke that night at the Apollo in Harlem; from there, they follow Sam into the segregated South, a world of restricted hotels and passing themselves off as: "Mr. Cooke's personal valets of the caucasian persuasion". Who could have foreseen a cornfield in Mason City, Iowa taking its own sweet time to fill with snow and body parts? Just the thought of one so young—22—falling, Icarus-like, without an audience, was (is) enough to move us to tears. And whoever brought the news to Maria Elena, his wife, had to watch the light in her eyes iris to black Nothing as if veiled by a stage ...

Moondreams, Raining in My Heart, It Doesn't matter Anymore and in an earlier session Now we're One and Early in the Morning.

His innovative techniques for his day were certainly ahead of their time. He came and went long before my time but his influence is still felt today. That's the mark of his true greatness.
