Buddy Holly: A Life from Beginning to End

Buddy Holly, born in Lubbock, Texas, was the unassuming yet powerful voice of a generation, singing songs that would become standards of the emerging rock and roll genre in America. From his teenage years, Holly rode high on both his love for music and the pure enthusiasm of his fans. He secured a record deal in the mid-1950s, and soon the whole world would be jamming to his tunes, grooving to hits such as "That'll Be the Day" and "Peggie Sue."

Sadly, the life and music of Buddy Holly would come tragically crashing down when he was only 22 years old. He was a legend then, and his life—as well as his music—still manages to speak to us today.
