It seems like Buddy Holly is indeed alive and well, in more ways than one (maybe even more than Gary Busey these days). A little while ago, we wrote about the new Jon Heder flick that is in production titled ALIVE AND WELL based on Bradley Denton's excellent sci-fi adventure novel Buddy Holly is Alive and Well on Ganymede. We'd also like to update you on a documentary chronicling... Read...

"Hellhole Ratrace" from the album Album 2009 iTunes Girls, the San Francisco duo of Christopher Owens and J R White, arrives with shoulders shrugged, head slightly down. Its debut album, titled Album , is a lean ramble, in no way ostentatious. Knowingly or not, Mr. Owens has the tender brooding of Buddy Holly down cold, with a touch of Elvis Costello's shakiness in his voice. But Album isn't...

The comedians I like in general are ones who are quick-witted and good with words. So it may seem slightly strange, therefore, that the first comedian who made an impression on me was Richard Hearne , in his television character of Mr Pastry ,as his comedy was mostly visual. That's what I remember, anyway. I enjoyed the comedy dancing and I remember the signature tune Pop Goes the Wease l always being...

The folk-rock EP features two takes on the same "dirge". The Doomsday EP features two versions of the same song, "Doomsday", with four other tunes sandwiched between the ostensible dirges. The folk-country songs fill a much larger space than their separate parts suggest. These are the songs that are the essence of rock 'n' roll. "Stay Zombie Stay" and "Stop Drop Rock...

The Orange County Register (MCT) -- Death doesn't have to be the end. It also can be the beginning ... of a lively conversation. Last week, in the wake of Michael Jackson's posthumous success at the box office, I compiled a list of the 20 dead celebrities who left behind the most unfulfilled promise.

Number 7 - Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly Recorded in 1957, I first heard Buddy Holly on our old transistor radio tuned in to Radio Luxembourg before we left London. One of the early pioneers of the new rock and roll, he performed in 1955 with Elvis and Bill Haley. These influences contributed to him adapting to a more rockabilly style typified by his first hit That'll Be The Day earlier in 1957. Unlike...
