THE CRICKETS
THE CRICKETS AND THEIR BUDDIES
(2005)
When someone brings up the subject of THE MOST INFLUENTIAL ROCK BAND, the usual answers are THE BEATLES, THE STONES, LED ZEPPELIN and THE WHO.  All of them are british and all were inspired by that strange fusion on country and western with blues and rock-a-billy. In short, they were inspired by one of rock n roll's original artists, THE CRICKETS, BUDDY HOLLY'S band.

On THE CRICKETS AND THEIR BUDDIES, not only can their influence on modern music still be felt, they've got some notable names paying them lip service such as ERIC CLAPTON, NANCI GRIFFITH WAYLON JENNINGS, GRAHAM NASH and VINCE NEIL of MOTLEY CRUE.

You can call it a stroll through memory lane or a nod to the sound that  THE CRICKETS helped create. Either way, ROCKWIRED is pleased to showcase such an act. The next time anyone brings up the subject of most influential band, THE CRICKETS will be nudged in somewhere in that top 5 list in your head.
