Remembering another rock and roll creative force  
BUDDY HOLLEY   54 years ago  

Charles Hardin Holley (September 7, 1936 – February 3, 1959), known professionally as Buddy Holly,
was a Texas singer-songwriter and a pioneer of rock and roll. Although his success lasted only a year
and a half before his death in an airplane crash, Holly is described by critic Bruce Eder as;
"the single most influential creative force in early rock and roll."[1] His works and innovations inspired
and influenced contemporary and later musicians, notably The Beatles, Elvis Costello,
The Rolling Stones, Don McLean, Bob Dylan, Steve Winwood, and Eric Clapton, and exerted a profound
 influence on popular music.[2] Holly was among the first group of inductees to the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.[3] In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked Holly #13 among "The 100 Greatest
Artists of All Time".[4]
