Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars The Very Best of Buddy Holly ruined by poor overdubbing........2004-10-23

Anybody new to Buddy Holly and his music would do well to avoid this collection. Many of Buddy's very best tracks are spoiled by the overdubbing which sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom and all on the same day. The voices of The Picks had been overdubbed onto many of The Crickets' original recordings but the tracks attributed to Buddy Holly usually escaped the treatment.
The sad thing is that the basic quality of the recordings used here is sparkling when they can actually be heard.
The Picks (and The Roses, another vocal group who's voices were dubbed onto Crickets' recordings) may well deserve some kind of tribute in recognition for being involved (post production) in the Crickets story but this should not have been the way to do it.
