Buddy Holly and The PicksThe
Picks were a vocal backing group for Buddy Holly; appearing without credit on
many early recordings. In later years, they have recorded backing
tracks for most Buddy Holly 'standards', and the albums on this page include various
permutations of those 'overdubs'. The Picks basis for making
these recordings is that their early work was very much part of the Buddy Holly
and the Crickets 'sound'; fair comment, but in the months before his death, during
which many tracks were laid down, Buddy Holly was taking a very different approach. Ultimately,
it's up to you; you may or may not agree with the appropriateness of overdubbing
the tracks; though many were very much 'unfinished', and have been overdubbed
with various music tracks over the years. Find out more at
