It is 49 years ago tomorrow (Feb. 3rd)since "the day the music died" and I have been listening to a couple of recordings that I knew existed but had never heard before yesterday:

Carolyn Hester backed by Buddy holly on acoustic guitar singing "Wreck of the Old 97" and "Scarlet Ribbons" - both recorded in 1957. The train song also has harmonica on it.

Given the a lot of folkies of my generation are also Holly freaks perhaps there is a case for Holly as a folk singer (see Lennon thread).
