    What kind of info.
    Buddy Holly was a rock and roll singer songwriter.
    By Request was an EP that Coral put out. Overseas only I think.
    Test presses are likely rare and desirable for the few people who still want to spend $$$ on Buddy Holly stuff.

    Everyone should own a Buddy Holly greatest hits lp.

    Buddy Holly died in a private airplane crash on a cold morning somewhere in the Midwest during a tour. He was accompanied by The Big Bopper and Richie Valens.

    There a documentary called "The Day The Music Died."

    You have a fancy schmancy collector item.

    Honestly, I wouldn't expect this to go for much unless it's a US test press from an aborted release.

    There's another great documentary called La Bamba. Not sure how they got all that footage, but it rules. Interesting factoid: Buddy Holly and Richie Valens met eachother on Chat Roulette.

  • Also check " Big and Boppin' ", a really great documentary about the Big Bopper

  • thanks.

    very familiar with who the guy is ;)

    just wanted info about test pressing.......thanks horseleech
