Buddy Holly belongs to that select group of artists whose importance and infuence eclipse the need for statistical corroboration

Indeed, given that no one has ever recorded an absolutely 100% perfect body of work, Holly came pretty damn close consequently, no matter which compilation of his recordings you listen to, it always sounds great.

This collection of killer Buddy Holly & The Crickets sides is a classic example; drawn from EPs issued variously in the US, the UK, West Germany and Australia between 1957-62, it features a selection of hits, misses, B-sides, LP tracks, Buddy's pre-Crickets"solo" sides, and a handful of posthumously-released, overdubbed versions of songs from his legendary apartment tapes.

The tracks are sequenced in the order that they were originally recorded, rather than released, as it makes sense to hear them in this chronology.

Tracks: Midnight Shift / Don't Come Back Knockin' / Love Me / I'm Changing All Those Changes / That'll Be The Day / Girl On My Mind / You Are My One Desire / I'm Lookin' For Someone To Love / Last Night / Maybe Baby / Words Of Love / Mailman, Bring Me No More Blues / Ready Teddy / Tell Me How / Peggy Sue / Listen To Me / Oh, Boy! / It's Too Late / An Empty Cup (And A Broken Date) / Rock Me My Baby / You've Got Love / Rave On / Well...All Right / Fool's Paradise / Think It Over / Lonesome Tears / Heartbeat / Love's Made A Fool Of You / Early In The Morning / It Doesn't Matter Anymore / Moondreams / Peggy Sue Got Married / Crying Waiting Hoping / That's What They Say / That Makes It Tough / Learning The Game
