Buddy Holly liked working with Norman Petty up until the end of his tenure with him at the end of 1958. Great how they have made his studio into a nice museum. Fun to see. Thanks.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know a tool to log back into an instagram account? I was stupid lost the password. I love any help you can give me!
@Frank Orlando i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I saw a musical in Philadelphia PA. a few years ago it was the Buddy Holly Story. Every time a song was sung everyone sang along. After the encore everyone was singing and dancing. It was a fantastic night I went with an older widowed friend she cried for joy all through the show as this was her & her husband s favorite dancing music back in the day. I was so honored to go with her.
Catching up 4 years later. This is great work Jordan and what a great subject David is as the historian who was active on the scene when the history was being made. I hope David continues to thrive. I drove through Clovis on my first drive across America in 1974 - hard to imagine it was less than 20 years after all the greatness was going down in Norman Petty's studio that I knew nothing about at the age of 22 - though I knew "That'll Be The Day" and "Peggy Sue"! I'll be taking another drive across the backroads coast to coast in 2024, and hope to be able to explore this space as I'll make a point to route myself through Clovis.
So you have taken cross country drives on all backroads, no freeways, before? What was that like? I really want to do that, and go to this place and record some songs.
@@michaelcraig9449 I have made 10 round trip crossings of the U.S. from coast to coast - so 20 crossings in all, and wiggle waggled north to south and north again. I'd turn a normal 2800 mile cross country drive into a 4000 mile adventure going wherever the breeze carried me. Also a couple of trips across Canada along with some road trips in Mexico. I am 71 now, and these trips were in my prime through middle age. Eventually career focus became too serious to allocate the time necessary to do it my way: that is, no freeways unless absolutely necessary, no time limits, and enough financial resources to do it comfortably, though some trips were focused on backpacking in the wild places so finance was less of an issue. I aspired to wander around without a tight agenda from my childhood, and arranged my life so I could find windows to have great experiences. I loved road movies, road music, and literature of the road. If my prime years were now instead of 25-50 years ago I could have been like Jordan, or Huell Howser who did great PBS documentaries about road curiosities until he passed away some years ago. I had 3 distinct careers so every transition gave me an "early retirement" to satiate my wanderlust until the time came to resume real life and go back to work. I did it sometimes alone, and sometimes with a partner or a group of friends. The alone trips were great because I had all the control and that was what I yearned for on the road. I was obsessed with grass routes Americana - I wanted to know the small towns and the big cities, and the people along with the open spaces of the farm belts and mountains...I paid attention to Woody Guthrie's classic song proclaiming that "This land was made for you and me". Riding freeways is driving along concrete islands at fast speed completely removed from real life, real places, and real people. I'm retired now but have physical issues that prevent me from doing it again my way. But I'll do it anyway the best I can. This is a primary motivator that led me to change career every 10 years or so - 2 week vacations didn't do it for me, so I kept retiring temporarily. I didn't want to wait until I was old and could possibly be extremely limited in physical durability. So I did it when I was in shape to maximize the joy of it. But I'm still here, so I'll be out there on the road again and taking all the time I need to visit places I still haven't seen, return to many I have, and visiting old friends and lovers wherever they may be. 😉😉. I should add that there are always costs for the choices you make in life. My greatest cost was that my need for total freedom kept me single and without my own family. I could have done it, but that would have taken its own toll. I followed my heart. Anyway, you don't need to be as stubbornly dedicated to a vision as I was. Take a trip with the time and resources you have and make the necessary adjustments instead of waiting for an ideal combination of circumstances as I was privileged to do.
In the late 1980's I played a number of shows in Canada with Buddy Knox. His stories were just like this fellows..........THANKS for making this video.
LOVE IT! The THRILL of everything you saw SHINES through! David Bingham is a sweet gentleman and he invited you back for the REUNION - how SPECIAL is that!?! I inherited some of those old vinyl 45 rpm records from the 50's & 60's and I learned the songs while growing up. EXCELLENT, Jordan - THANK YOU for another exciting vlog. Take care.
Hi Jordan, what a lovely gentleman David Bingham is, I could listen to him talking about this all night. We are so lucky and It is so nice to be able to hear this from people who actually knew these people. What an AMAZING little Museum. Great vlog Jordan.
Hi Jordan. I enjoyed playing Norman's Hammond and singing on stage with Vi Petty 1987, 1988, 1989. I never met Norman face to face but enjoyed talking to him on the phone. He gave me permission to record some of his songs back then. One of my other hobbies was and is stereoscopic (three-D) photography. I took many of the same pictures of the recording studio and the back porch. Glad to keep their memory alive. Gary Schneider Alameda, California
I lived in Lubbock Texas in a house that Buddy and his father laid the tile in.........you did a great job on these Buddy Holly videos, I learned a lot, thanks~!
I am a huge Buudy Holly fan, I woudl love to visit Clovis and the Norman Petty Studio someday. Thanks so much Jordan for sharing this video, awesome historical feedback from Mr. Bigham.
It was so kind of David to sit down and talk with you. So much information is lost when these guys pass on. It’s great you got it all down on tape. Very nice that you got invited back for the September reunion! 🎸🎤🎼🎹
I cant believe all that equipment is still there from the days of Buddy Holly..must have been amazing to play some of those original keys that are used on 'everyday'...what a great episode..loved watching it from here in the UK
Oh wow what a lovely man, and the things he knows of such a, hard, fickle, money orientated industry, loved listening to him so glad you got to talk with him. And share with us his musical life, and he let you play a original instrument from the studio, lucky you
I was at the Studio about four years ago. It was really worth the time to stop by here! You step back in time, with all the vintage equipment. I also played the Solovox , such a cool little keyboard. I sang a little with David that day also...!
You are truly a Renaissance man with your knowledge of old Hollywood and Rock music history. This vlog as well as your others shows the depth of your knowledge!
I was at the studio in 2015 - David "felt" that I had a high interest in the Fireballs - and asked if I'd like to speak to George Tomsco. I replied that I would. Ended up talking with George for a few minutes and then listened to the the original "That'll be the day" on the huge reel to reel machine in the studio. Item crossed of my bucket list.
Amazing music history happened within the walls of Norman Petty Recording Studios. Jordan, I remember performing to the song titled -Wheels-. It was a catchy tune, and we danced and twirled baton.s
🦁 Jordan, Buddy Holly was AWESOME!!!! He passed on way too soon. You did another, GREAT vlog!!!! You are experiencing seeing many Amazing places and meeting people that are connected to some electrifying past and that is soo neat. 👏👍👏 Sending 🐒 Jah, some belly rubs.
Thanks for checking out the studio. Love checking out old school analog gear. All the microphones, preamps, tape machines and more is gear porn to me. Good interview, I like how he opened up about the alleged beef between Buddy and Norman.
This was a supercalifragilisticexpealidocious vlog, Jordan - love it! You are always so good at interviewing people and bringing out their best stories and reminiscences. David was no exception. I enjoyed listening to him and how exciting that you have been invited back in September for the reunion. Cool!
What a fantastic vlog! WOW! I love listening to Mr Bigham!! I am so glad you got to do this, what an experience for you and taking us along, how great!!! Ty! That sounds exciting to go back in Sept!!! Love all the History behind the Music! Keep smiling!
I met Norman in the early 70s, saw the theater studio as well. This was when he had sold Buddy Holly's library to Paul Mcartney, and then the whole nine yards went to Michael Jackson.. Cheers
So what a wonderful tour of old style recording equipment... nice to see, who knew they had to use so many different pieces of equipment to record a song but now a bunch of the songs are iconic, chart topping songs great tour Jordan!! I could listen to David all day. It’s just so heart warming to hear an original songster share the stories he witnessed first hand... yikes I’m so excited😍🥰... Thanks for pulling this together for your fans & viewers, Jordan...I think it’s the actor in you and your own enthusiasm that when you interview you add so much just being you, how wonderful!! 👍🏻🌸🌹🌻🌻👩🏻💻
I am amazed. To actually see the microphone and other recording studio equipment that Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, and Waylon Jennings used is incredible. David Bingham’s stories, as a session vocalist, will live on in my head. My favorite Texas vlog so far.
This was amazing! I love everything from that time period. The music, movies, furniture, style...everything! That was a fantastic interview with David. He was such a sweet person and what a treat it must have been to tour in person. I can't wait for you to go back in September!
Incredible Jordan!!! Wow! Getting to tour the studio where Buddy Holly & The Crickets recorded many of their greatest hits, AND getting to talk to a session musician, who performed on some those historic recordings!! A day you'll remember for the rest of your life! Especially loved the story of the hand clapping sound on the song "Everyday"!🎼 💿📻 👍😀
What a great tour & story-telling sessions!! Seeing all the stuff in & around that studio was awesome! And those recording machines, wow! Btw, I'm a huge B. Holly fan from way back! Totally awesome! Thanks for the tour
I was very lucky to be invited by Vi PETTY for the music festival in clovis 1987, 1988, & 1989. I stayed with Bob and Ann Linville. I saved all of my correspondence with Norman and enjoyed talking to him on the phone. Unfortunately, i never got to see him in person. He gave me permission to record some of his songs on my first album. (JUST FOR FUN, JUST FOR FRIENDS) I have many great memories of my time in Clovis. I had a special treat playing Norman's Hammond Organ and singing with Vi. Gary Schneider Alameda, California
Thank you so much for sharing this tour of the studio!! I was fascinated by David’s recollections. What a great guy! Getting firsthand information with no B.S. is just wonderful 🥰. I was especially transfixed when he talked about the making of “EVERYDAY “... a song that I fell in love with the first time I heard it back in 1957 when I was 9 years old ❤️
David was so interesting. It is amazing to hear all of those stories from someone who was there. I was only about 6 or 7 at that time but it still brings me back. I love hearing about all this history. Thanks again Jordan.
Thank you for this treasure. Peggy Sue was the first song I ever sang in public in 1963. I lived in Shallowater, Texas. The little town was on 13 miles from Lubbock, Texas. This 13 miles has been over run by Lubbock. When I lived there it was all cotton fields between us and Lubbock.
💋Fantastic vlog Jordan! Loved the interview! My goodness this was so freaking cool that you got the insight and perspective of such talented people. Thank you for going out of your way to bring each vlog to life for us. You authenticity, Indie and honest style are worth acknowledging from time to time. I sincerely mean that too. I can see the artistic beautiful light in you. You are on the right track for sure. I look forward to continuing to watch you grow and flourish. That is my prayer for you. Also to your true Lion💛’s much love and many blessings also. ~Love and Light 💖Carli
A 'hand on the keyboards' personal tour. Sweet, Jordan! While traveling from Indiana to SoCal with my son stationed at Camp Pendleton, I've developed a true love for New Mexico. I've been passing the Clovis NM exit sign for years. Just Wow! What I have been missing! I already decided that I want to visit Waylon's gravesite in Mesa, AZ while traveling through next trip. Now I shall plan to exit off the the beaten path of I-40 and visit some of these many wonderful places that you have so graciously brought into my world.
OUTSTANDING! Really enjoyed the interview and photo commentary Jordan. You are a gifted interviewer. The old studio equipment is and set up is awesome. Very nice of him to take the time to share all the stories with you and us! Thank you for taking the time and effort to keep history alive!
FASCINATING. Doesn't matter if the title of your video is interesting or not, I always learn so much from watching and always am so fascinated at the end
Thank you so much for this video. I have always loved Buddy Holly. It was interesting hearing the man tell stories about all those great artists from the 50's it was great.
Buddy Holly liked working with Norman Petty up until the end of his tenure with him at the end of 1958. Great how they have made his studio into a nice museum. Fun to see. Thanks.
I could listen to you interview David for hours. His memory is unbelievable.

I wish that the next time there is a Buddy Holly documentary, they would interview David Bigham. What an new insight to Buddy's and Norm relationship.
great!!! I hope it comes out soon!!
Love Buddy Holly. Great find!
