Description

Buddy Holly signs his iconic hit single, 'Peggy Sue'

Sought-after Coral Records 45 RPM record for the Buddy Holly single ‘Peggy Sue / Everyday,’ signed on the orange label in black ballpoint by Holly. Professionally double-matted and framed with a vintage Bruno of Hollywood portrait photo of Holly to an overall size of 16 x 25.5. In fine condition.

Only the third signed 45 RPM single record from Buddy Holly that we have offered, with this example particularly desirable for its lack of inscription and famous song title — released in 1957, ‘Peggy Sue’ has since become one of Holly's most well-known and enduring songs, despite only reaching number three on the Billboard Top 100 chart. Considered a pivotal track in the evolution of rock and roll music, ‘Peggy Sue’ was included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum’s list of ‘Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll,’ and, in 1999, was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame and featured as part of the NPR 100, a list of the ‘100 Most Important American Musical Works of the 20th Century.’
