Obviously my memory is not what it was.
I have been a Buddy Holly freak since before I first heard Adam and, when I heard his first hit single, I thought that he was a pale imitation of the great man. However, he had his own style and did some interesting stuff.
John Barry provided the backing on the early records with his orchestra and it was his film score for Adam's first film that got him into what he is best known for now - movie music (especially James Bond.)
