1	Gold (2005) more music like this by Buddy Holly Geffen/Decca/Chronicles' 2005 release Gold is a retitled reissue of the 1993 double-disc set The Buddy Holly Collection, bearing different artwork but the same liner notes. Given the reluctance of MCA to release a CD version of the complete Buddy Holly recordings (due to either legal issues or a skepticism of its commercial worth), this set -- ... see all copies from $16.46! new only from $16.46!
2	The Definitive Collection (2006) more music like this by Buddy Holly 2006's The Definitive Collection replaces 1996's Greatest Hits as the best available single-disc Buddy Holly collection on the market, and it replaces 1985's From the Original Master Tapes as the best single-disc Buddy Holly CD yet released. At 26 tracks, it's eight songs longer than the 1996 set and six songs longer than the 1985 set, so it's ... see all copies from $11.12! new only from $11.12!
3	The Great Buddy Holly [MCA] (1982) more music like this by Buddy Holly In 1967, Decca Records reissued Buddy Holly's That'll Be the Day album with new cover art and this new title, minus one song ("Ting-a-Ling"). That album has remained in print to the present day, due in part to the fact that it's always been popular as a low-priced LP or CD -- the latter is a result of the ironing out of the contractual and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $4.50!
4	From the Original Master Tapes (1985) more music like this by Buddy Holly MCA got serious about reissuing vintage music from its library in the 1980s, when it put the responsibility in the hands of producer Steve Hoffman, who was willing to spend the time and do the research required to find the right masters and also to propose doing right by them. One of the first results was For the First Time Anywhere, which ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $19.28!
5	Rockin' Bones: 1950s Punk and Rockabilly (2006) more music like this by Various Artists It's easy to look at Rhino's four-disc 2006 box Rockin' Bones: 1950s Punk and Rockabilly and confuse it with the label's 1999 four-disc box Loud, Fast & Out of Control: The Wild Sounds of '50s Rock. It has the same garish neo-pulp artwork, covers the same era, and even has several of the same songs, usually big hits like Eddie Cochran's ... see all copies from $50.30! new only from $50.30!
6	The Best of Stray Cats: Live (2005) more music like this by Stray Cats Usually, live albums are associated with amped-up renditions of songs -- heavy on the energy and feedback from the audience. At various points of The Best of Stray Cats: Live, it's the complete opposite, as you'll find surprisingly laid-back versions of such Stray Cats classics as "Stray Cat Strut" and "Rock This Town." But there are a few ... see all copies from $2.35! new only from $2.35!
7	Forever Gold: The Stray Cats (2002) more music like this by The Stray Cats Forever Gold: The Stray Cats contains four studio outtakes and eight live tracks that capture the raw energy of the retro rockabilly band in their prime. Inspired studio takes of "Stray Cat Strut," "We n' Love," "Mystery Train," and "Summertime Blues" are tame compared to the raucous live tracks. The sound is a bit thin, especially since Slim Jim ... see all copies from $2.17! new only from $2.98!
8	Forever 22 (2001) more music like this by Buddy Holly see all copies from $10.03! new only from $10.03!
9	The Singles + (2001) more music like this by Buddy Holly This collection starts deeper and more interesting than its title would lead one to expect, and for 29 of its 45 songs, it's also wonderfully enjoyable. Assembling all of the Buddy Holly singles and B-sides issued in America and Europe between April of 1956 and September of 1964, it covers Holly's music and career the way the ordinary listener ... see all copies from $20.13! new only from $20.13!
10	Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story [Original London Cast Recording] (1991) more music like this by Original London Cast Recording This popular London musical, which opened in 1989, tells the story of one of modern American music's greatest legends -- Buddy Holly. Holly's death is clearly the sort of incident that becomes mythical, but the musical concludes just before the ill-fated plane crash, preferring to focus on the incidents that formed him as a person and a phenomenal ... see all copies from $9.95! new only from $79.88!
11 view cover	The Great Buddy Holly [RedX] (2000) more music like this by Buddy Holly Things can get a bit confusing in the Buddy Holly discography since he released material both as a solo artist and with his backup band the Crickets during his lifetime. Contrary to popular belief, members of the Crickets did not sing harmony for Holly. That task fell to the Picks (John Pickering, Bill Pickering, and Bob Lapham), although they ... see all copies from $10.29! new only from $10.29!
12 view cover	The Great Buddy Holly [Collectables] (2004) more music like this by Buddy Holly Collectables' The Great Buddy Holly is a good budget-priced, ten-track collection containing some of the rock & roll legend's most overt rockabilly tracks, including "Rock Around With Ollie Vee," "Love Me," "Don't Come Back Knockin'," and his first number one hit from 1957, "That'll Be the Day." Please note that this edition includes the exact ... see all copies from $3.88! new only from $3.88!

14 view cover	Not Fade Away (2008) more music like this by Buddy Holly A Hear Music release available through Starbucks stores, Not Fade Away is pretty much a standard-issue Buddy Holly hits collection, containing most of his big singles -- "It's So Easy," "Words of Love," "Everyday," "Peggy Sue," "Oh Boy!," "Think It Over," "Maybe Baby," "It Doesn't Matter Anymore," "Not Fade Away," "Rave On," "That'll Be the Day" - ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
15	That'll Be the Day (1958) more music like this by Buddy Holly The tendency of most critics is to dismiss this album, comprised as it is of the songs from Holly's 1956 Nashville sessions, which yielded a somewhat too tentative, country-oriented sound that suited neither him nor the public. In actual fact, at least ten of the 11 songs on this LP (the one exception being the ballad "Girl on My Mind") have aged ... see all copies from $5.00!
16 view cover	Live at the New Morning (2007) more music like this by Albert Lee and Hogan's Heroes see all copies from $21.89! new only from $21.89!
17 view cover	Tear It Up (2002) more music like this by Albert Lee/Hogans Heroes see all copies from $18.56! new only from $18.56!
18 view cover	I'm on Fire (2003) more music like this by Razorbacks see all copies from $8.20! new only from $16.39!
19 view cover	Reminiscing/Showcase (2001) more music like this by Buddy Holly In recent decades, both Reminiscing and Showcase have enjoyed less than stellar reputations among Buddy Holly fans and '50s rock purists, as both albums were made up of the products of producer Norman Petty's posthumous redubbing of Holly's unfinished demos. Apart from the bizarre inclusion of "Wait Till the Sun Shines, Nellie" -- a B-side chosen ... see all copies from $20.46! new only from $20.46!

21 view cover	Buddy Holly [Madacy] (2007) more music like this by Buddy Holly Simply put, when it comes to compilations made by "classic" artists, Madacy usually spares all expense and gets right down to the budget nitty-gritty. They did that here, too. That said, if you already know the material by Buddy Holly and don't need extensive liner notes or complete recordings, and just need something that sounds half decent and ... see all copies from $17.15! new only from $17.15!
22 view cover	Roughneck Blues 1949-1956 (2007) more music like this by Grady Martin Strictly speaking, this isn't a Grady Martin CD so much as it's a compilation of recordings on which his guitar work as a session player figures prominently, although he's credited as the leader of the featured or backup group on a few of the cuts. Still, on most of these 32 tracks from 1949 to 1956 he was a hired hand, lending his licks to a ... see all copies from $17.92! new only from $17.92!
23	Buddy Holly Rocks (1988) more music like this by Buddy Holly This 32-track album, released by British reissue specialists Charly Records, focused on Buddy Holly's more uptempo material. It was well assembled, but unauthorized by MCA, and had to be withdrawn. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide see all copies from $18.00!
24 view cover	Great Rockabilly, Vol. 2: 1955-1957 (2008) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $9.83! new only from $9.83!
25 view cover	That'll Be the Day/Remember (2002) more music like this by Buddy Holly This disc is an interesting pairing, combining the contents of two LPs from opposite ends of the efforts to tap into Buddy Holly's catalog. That'll Be the Day, released in April of 1958, was Decca Records' first attempt to give a boost to the available Buddy Holly material, assembling 11 of the songs that he'd cut for the label during his four ... see all copies from $22.01! new only from $22.01!
