5 out of 5 stars Comprehensive compilation.......2004-09-30

Buddy Holly's place in popular music history is significant. He was a major influence on the Beatles and Rolling Stones as well as many other singers in a variety of genres. Whole tribute albums have been devoted to him. The Hollies named themselves after him (and covered several of his songs). Yet, all this was achieved despite his limited recorded output.

On this album, you get all the classics - Heartbeat, That'll be the day, Peggy Sue, Oh boy, Rave on, True love ways, Raining in my heart, Everyday, It's so easy, Listen to me, Maybe baby, Think it over, Wishing, Words of love, Peggy Sue got married, Well all right, Bo Diddley and It doesn't matter anymore among them. Many of these have been covered frequently down the years, and new versions continue to appear on a regular basis. The Rolling Stones covered Not fade away and it first appeared on one of their early B-sides. In 2002, British jazz singer Claire Martin recorded a magical version of Raining in my heart (on her album Too darn hot), perhaps the best cover of a Buddy Holly song I've ever heard - and I've heard a lot.

Besides those classic songs, there are some great covers here, some of which were also hits for Buddy, including Brown eyed handsome man (Chuck Berry). With so many tracks, there is still enough room to include some interesting but seldom-heard songs, such as Midnight shift, What to do, Learning the Game and Take your time.

This is the best double CD collection of Buddy's music that you are ever likely to find.

5 out of 5 stars This is seriously good music.......2004-04-18

There's so many Buddy Holly "Greatest Hits" packages it's hard to know where to start. Well, this is a fine place to start because this is a marvelous collection and by far the best two-CD collection out there on Buddy's music. Most people listening to Buddy's music for the first time can never stop at just one CD, so this will serve as a fine introduction to some of the best music you'll ever hear. Though these songs are all more than 45 years old, they wear well and are timeless.
Most casual rock fans can name only a few Holly tunes: "That'll Be the Day" and "Peggy Sue," but there is so much more than that. This collection includes two of his most haunting, beautiful ballads, "True Love Ways" and "Raining in My Heart." Listen to the innovative string arrangements on these tunes and you'll plainly know why Paul McCartney (who owns the Holly musical catalogue), adopted these arrangements ten years later as a Beatle. In addition, this CD includes the musicians and Buddy counting down as an intro to these two songs. It's sad to realize that just months later, he would be dead.
