A song at the Buddy Holly crash site - 'Everyday' - Acoustic Guitar Cover

Back in November last year I travelled to the United States to visit various locations associated with my musical hero, Buddy Holly. In this video I'm playing one of my favourite Buddy songs in a field just outside Clear Lake, Iowa. As you can hear, it was a pretty windy day. I'm standing beside the memorial which marks the spot where the plane carrying Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper crashed shortly after take off during a snowstorm at around 1am on February 3rd 1959. The three rock 'n' roll stars were killed along with their pilot, Roger Peterson.

Funny, I was listening to a Buddy Holly "Best Of"-type album on my music player when I was walking home today, and then your lovely tribute popped up just now on a sleepless night. Great job, as usual, with this classic, Jez, particularly given the windy conditions. Jez (another one!).

[@RocknRollSongbook]

Thanks very much Jez! It’s nice to think that my video got to you on a sleepless night. I’m a bit of an insomniac at times myself - Jez
