Beck Did It Better

Buddy Holly: 20 Golden Greats (1978)


Listen Later

Merry Halloween everyone! Some of our listeners might call this episode a double decker bust but the rest of you pissants will recognize it as the best podcast about Buddy Holly and the 166th greatest album of all time, 20 Golden Greats. 

 

Before we get to the music we think it over and talk about leprechaun tag, the best things to do in San Francisco, and concerts at the Vegas Sphere. We also revive our annual graveyard smash with a list of the scariest songs of all time. 

 

Then at (52:00) we share some words of love on 20 Golden Greats, the greatest hits album by Buddy Holly & the Crickets. Can't you picture your grandpa fumbling a bra to these hits? We discuss how Buddy Holly is credited with the rock-and-roll lineup, the story behind Peggy Sue, and the best songs featuring the Bo Diddley Beat. 

 

Over the next week you can enjoy the silence, but next Tuesday we'll be back with the sweetest perfection when we become the best Depeche Mode podcast and discuss their electronic music album, Violator.
