I went to the Buddy Holly museum in Lubbock Texas and it gave me chills to see Buddy's personal belongings there. Then I met the caretaker of the museum outside who knew and hung out with Larry and Buddy when they were younger. What a thrill that was!

It is an unbearable pain, and from experience I can say that whether they were a genius/legend or not is meaningless because they're *my brother* before anything else. Not being a downer I just think that when it comes to family "status" is meaningless.
Thank you Mark. My exact thoughts. Larry is a great man and a proud WWII veteran. I actually did a complete interview with him when I met him the second time. I also was honored to perform a set with Buddy’s niece (Larry’s daughter), Sherry, at the Clovis Music Festival, in Clovis, New Mexico.
RIP Larry Holley, may you have a heck of a jam session, with Travis, and Buddy. Also thank you for your service, to our country. Being one of the first Marines going into Nagasaki, defines the word hero.
I was a young kid hanging around the house, and I was always hearing my eldest brother singing buddy holly songs.. I heard him so often, I began to know them off-by-heart from him.. we couldn't afford the records, my brother had an old reel to reel tape recorder our uncle gave him so when Buddys songs came on the radio, my brother recorded them.. I was 'hooked' on Buddy and learnt all his songs, later on a guy gave me an old acoustic guitar, and I painfully learnt a few cords from Buddy's song books.. Years on my brother died of a heart attack, I was crushed.. he was my mentor.. I had a reth made for his funeral, on it was "Buddy Holly" and a pair of black rimmed glasses. I am now 70 with a Gibson guitar still playing Buddy Holly songs, if only my brother was around to hear me playing them.. the old reel to reel tape recorder burnt out, but I still have the old Buddy Holly song books ! Larry I feel your heart strings my friend, god bless you !
Such a great comment. Thanks for watching my interview clip with Larry Holley. What a truly great family they all are. Buddy is why I play guitar today. Please check out some of my Buddy Holly song arrangements...Larry Cappetto. WEBSITE: larrycappetto.com
Hey kingdom, great post about your love and story. If you get a chance Google the Gary Busey appearance on Orsineo Hall show. He brings Buddy's Gibson guitar On the show ( foke guitar). Busey bought it at auction for A top bid of $230,000 ! Buddy Probably paid 100 dollars or less In the 50s. When Gary Busey dies It may be worth half a million. By The way the money went to his Widow who lost their bady by miscarriage after the plane crash. Busey is the best person in the world to care and own his great Guitar. Have a grand summer of 2024. From Colorado ❤
People today don't understand that life is precious and too short. ipads , iphones cars etc. have taken over. What has been removed is FAMILY. If you have a good family togetherness like I feel Larry and Buddy had, you have it all.
Buddy Holly was a legend no doubt about it, he influenced thousands of bands and musicians after him, even the Beatles and the Rolling Stones were heavily influenced by Buddy, he may not be here, but his music will live on forever in our hearts, and Larry, thank you for sharing your story, thank you for your service and God bless you sir!
I was six years old when he died. I must have heard about his death on the radio news and I was shocked. I thought since he was dead I would never hear him singing again. When I heard his songs on the radio later that day, I thought that the news report must have been a mistake. I thought that he was still alive. I must not have understood that only his records were played on the radio. Five months later, I got the same kind of shock when I heard that George Reeves had died. I still couldn't understand how I could see him as Superman on television everyday and he could be dead. Looking back 61 years later, I think I was right back then. As long as his songs are played, he is still alive.

Thank you to the Holley family. Visited your family grave last summer. A privelege and an honour. Drove 6 hours from Dallas to Lubbock as tourists from Salford.Manchester. Brought up on Buddy's music by my hero, my dad; along with Elvis, The Everly's....Will cherish those vinyls and the memories of Lubbock.I'm 52 this year. 😊
Grover, that is so cool. It seems like Buddy Holley, The Everly's, Eddie Cochrane, Elvis were so well loved in England. I loved how the stories of American sailors would bring their 45's to ports like Liverpool and that is how the early American rockers got a foothold in England.
Happy Birthday Buddy. Today would have been your 81st birthday. You were just a young man of 22 when you left the world in Feb. 1959. Gone but NEVER forgotten! You influenced countless of artists & musicians over the decades and your songs have been and STILL are played around the world! You left us with such a powerful and tremendous legacy of music and all was accomplished in a short period of time! A super talented young man who made many pick up a guitar and want to learn "That'll be the day", Peggy Sue, Rave on, Maybe baby, Oh boy and on. You are missed by many and we can only wonder and imagine what other great songs you would have recorded as time moved on. Happy Birthday Buddy, Rest in Peace and Thank you for the wonderful legacy of music you gave to us all......................
I know just how you feel, Larry. I lost my brother, January 19, 1995 to a heart attack. He was the best friend I have ever had. Buddy was it. That "kick" you talk about was "excitement" ... "Rave On" and "Oh Boy" were just alive with it. Buddy influenced more rock musicians than probably any single other person in the business, if you look at the effect he had on Dylan and Lennon and McCartney and Harrison and all the other British Invasion musicians. Then look at the effect they had on the rest of the world's musicians. I loved what you said about Buddy being up there with the Lord. So glad to hear it. He's probably signing autographs for my brother! God bless, Larry. We'll all be together in the next few years, the way this world is going. Cheers, and rave on, brother!
Buddy and his music is the inspiration behind my music and legacy. I've worked with his family and recorded with them also. I've also performed live with Buddy's niece. I hope you've seen Larry's entire interview.
After all those years and to see this grown man choke up only illustrates a little of what Buddy Holly meant to everyone. My mom always told me of her teenage days listening to all three that were lost in Iowa..She would still choke up just talking about it..She also told me growing up in that era was so so much fun, it was original, sincere and innocent..-Buddy Holly will forever be a legend !
Consider what else could have been... Consider what else might have been... We'll never know the greatness of the songs he never had a chance to write or record... All these things are gone...forever and ever gone.
Your hurt is still so obvious after all these years. I was born in 1960 so never new of Buddy during his lifetime and so never got the chance to see him perform live in my home town of Wigan in the Uk in 1958 at the Ritz cinema.I certainly grew up with his music though, my personal favourite being 'True Love Ways and 'I'm Looking For Someone To Love' It is because of this legacy that his memory and music will live on ensuring he will never be forgotten. So long as you have Buddy in your memory and heart, Larry he will always be with you. God bless you all
Larry, and didn't he just make it successfully! an inspiration to many many people. there were 3 big inspirations who had an effect on popular culture. Elvis, James Dean, and Buddy Holly. without Buddy's influence, the Beatles..may have existed, but would've been different. And it's still.having a knock.on effect to this day...and always will do. make no mistake, he will live forever.
Never saw Buddy's bro. He seems like a real sweet guy. The love he has for Buddy all these years later is really moving. Thanks for sharing these things with us Larry.
What a wonderful man!!!! To love his brother so much after all this time speaks of how close their family was. We need more of this in this world. Love you Larry!

God Bless You Larry Buddy is singing with the angels along with a lot of his friends like Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, Phil Everly, Waylon Jennings and so many others
I am 13 years old, and I love to listen to old music. And Buddy Holly is one of the people I listen to. I am the only person I know who likes this kind of music. My Dad has raised me with good music.
You need to get a copy of Larry's book, "I Don't Know How I Made It, But I Did" He has a chapter on Buddy, but he was also one of the first Marines, to go into Hiroshima after the bomb was dropped. Talk about emotional.
I have his entire interview that I did with him at his home in Lubbock if you are interested. He talks with me about his WWII service. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
58 years to this day we lost such talented people, Buddy, Ritchie and the Big Bopper, my heart goes out to all their families including the pilot's mr. Peterson Such a tragic incident R.I.P. XXXXX All the way from Scarborough, North Yorkshire. UK. .Never forgotten
That is so sweet and precious! Larry you and yours are sincerely always in my thoughts and in my heart, just want you to know that you are each deeply treasured and appreciated!
I found buddy holly after his passing and my heart hurts like yours. I remember listening to his music in the hot summer of 1976 and when I found out he had already passed I felt like I had gone with him. What a beautiful person he was and some how I know this snd I have never met him. May his wonderfull music live on FOREVER
@@jessicawiley5797 I dont know why it would? I do know some Wileys here in Canada, but that's it. Dont think weve ever met. You have a lovely family. Take Care.

The love Larry has for his little brother...wow...so raw the emotion. Mr Holley, your brother is so loved and admired throughout the world. You loved him most, and we know there will never be anyone like him. I think Buddy was a really good guy, I believe I would have got on well with him. A really nice guy, and so talented.
David this was one of the most cherished and loved interviews I have done. I interviewed Larry for 90 minutes. We talked of his service during WWII also.
David if you would be interested in the entire 90 minute interview of Buddy Holly's brother, Larry Holley, please email me. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
I remember the day he died. I was about 4 years old and my sister told me but I was too young to know who he was of course. Thank you for the video Sir. Seeing his brother is a sharp reminder of what he could have been if he had been spared. May he rest in peace and may his family be blessed
Dear Larry Buddy,s music was and still is Great and always will be Norman Petty did do a good job in his producing the music. God Bless You All love Jenny.
Last thing on my bucket list is to visit the crash site of the greatest rock n roll star who ever lived.75 now and its a long way from Botswana to Clear Lake but i,ll be there.RIP Buddy
Their aunt was my gym teacher in high school. We would just talk sometimes. She spoke of Buddy with great affection and pride. Now that I'm an aunt, I better understand her loss. She was a sweet lady. Seems like a pretty nice family.
The key to Buddy's singing was he sang with so much feeling. AMEN. With Jesus. And MY brother. Not much longer, Larry ... we won't have to wait much longer ...
My older brother was in a band in 1958-61 called The Corals. He played every single Buddy Holly song and threw his voice to sound like Buddy. I was 10 years old sitting on our couch in our living room when the news flashed that Buddy had been killed with Richie Valens and the Big Bopper. I became so upset that I cried. Buddy was part of our family. We all were never quite the same after his death.
As a young an growing up in the 70s with an uncle who very much admired buddy holly i realised what an amazing talent I was listening too. Buddy holly is and will aways be one of the most amazing singer/musicians of all time. This is a musician singer bigger than elvis will ever be
Words can’t say enough about what happened. But for that short time the boys had on earth they sure did make an impact. All three were talented enough to make any music icon these days jealous with envy. Buddy’s music was pioneering and still today it is been played all over the world and definitely one of the greatest and we should never forget.
"I think of Buddy up there with the Lord." So do i Larry Holley, Buddy had some of the greatest music. So many songs have been covered by others. Most don't sing any where near the quality or feelings of Buddy. I think of the strings and all, such good stuff. I was there from His beginning with the Crickets. I worked at a grocery store and a friend told me there he had died. I still have the records i bought. I bought a best of- type of album three years ago. God Bless and comfort you Larry, millions still listen to his music and love Buddy.
Larry, that was a wonderful short interview. Buddy was my very favorite singer. I even had an exact pair of those black framed glasses I wore everyday. God bless you and all the Holly relatives. Favorite songs: Everyday, Rave On and It Doesn't Matter Anymore.
Buddy's mother, how she talked, etc reminded me of my mother. They are very strong people to go thru such a tragedy yet keeping their dignity and composure. One thing I just don't understand is why Maria Elena packed up and left for NY not bothering to go to Buddy's funeral. According to the book, Whatever happened to Peggy Sue, by Peggy Sue Gerron, not seeing Maria at the funeral, she went to the Holley residence to check on her. Peggy said that Maria was dressed in a white outfit and according to the book, Maria said Buddy is dead and she was going back to her home in NY. I know Maria has all the rights basically to Buddy's life, but there just so many questions about her and how she conducted herself with Buddy and others in his circle, that as a fan of Buddy, can't help but wonder about.
People who managed and promoted Buddy expected him to become bigger than Elvis. He would have. He was such a great musician and the sound that he had developed was amazing.

I've lost relatives. The pain doesn't go away it just becomes who you are.
So touching, that is the definition of a loving brother.
AMEN!!
I went to the Buddy Holly museum in Lubbock Texas and it gave me chills to see Buddy's personal belongings there. Then I met the caretaker of the museum outside who knew and hung out with Larry and Buddy when they were younger. What a thrill that was!
I sure hope you took pictures and had your iPhone camera out to record that conversation.
Awww... poor guy. Even after all this time he breaks down about his brother. Made me tear up a little. Family is everything

@@XxDemon23xXso when you reflect on someone, you think of genetics before you think of their positive qualities?
So touching. I imagine Buddy being a very kind older gentleman, just like Larry had he lived. Indeed Larry, your brother was a genius.

@southpaw1889 Buddy may have wondered I'll never do as much as my brother did.
After all those years and still you can tell how much he loved his brother. The grieving process never ends.
What a beautiful comment 😌
I was a young kid hanging around the house, and I was always hearing my eldest brother
singing buddy holly songs.. I heard him so often, I began to know them off-by-heart from him..

Hey kingdom, great post about your love and story. If you get a chance Google the Gary Busey appearance on Orsineo Hall show.
He brings Buddy's Gibson guitar
On the show ( foke guitar).
Busey bought it at auction for
A top bid of $230,000 ! Buddy
Probably paid 100 dollars or less
In the 50s. When Gary Busey dies
It may be worth half a million. By
The way the money went to his
Widow who lost their bady by miscarriage after the plane crash.
Busey is the best person in the world to care and own his great
Guitar. Have a grand summer of 2024. From Colorado ❤
People today don't understand that life is precious and too short. ipads , iphones cars etc. have taken over. What has been removed is FAMILY. If you have a good family togetherness like I feel Larry and Buddy had, you have it all.
What a shame. What a loss. Everybody that ever picked up a guitar and rocked owes a debt of gratitude to Buddy Holly.
Tony, I agree with you. He truly was and still is the inspiration behind my music. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
He and Buddy have the same eyes. He cries in every interview when he recalls the crash. Larry was the one who claimed his body.
Larry comes across extremely genuine and very down to earth. Even through his music alone I can see that Buddy came from very fine people.
Robert Caffrey, southern people from that era are about as down to earth people as God ever made.
Buddy Holly was a legend no doubt about it, he influenced thousands of bands and musicians after him, even the Beatles and the Rolling Stones were heavily influenced by Buddy, he may not be here, but his music will live on forever in our hearts, and Larry, thank you for sharing your story, thank you for your service and God bless you sir!
"Even the Beatles?" The Beatles took his own whole act. Without him they would've ended up another Liverpool skiffle band.
He was a genius. He was branching into television and making his own studio.
I hope someone grieves like this man 60 years after I'm gone...
Buddy holly is a legend RIP.
what a sweet final comment for a brother to say,
Very moving tribute from a loving brother.
To be loved so deeply for so long, how beautiful. Larry your brother Buddy was blessed to have had you.
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere?!!..
LONG LIVE BUDDY HOLLY! His music will be around as long as this world exists!

Larry, and didn't he just make it successfully! an inspiration to many many people. there were 3 big inspirations who had an effect on popular culture. Elvis, James Dean, and Buddy Holly. without Buddy's influence, the Beatles..may have existed, but would've been different. And it's still.having a knock.on effect to this day...and always will do. make no mistake, he will live forever.
53 years later and you can still see and feel his pain..

I am 13 years old, and I love to listen to old music. And Buddy Holly is one of the people I listen to. I am the only person I know who likes this kind of music. My Dad has raised me with good music.
Thank you for watching my interview clip with Larry Holley. God bless you!! Larry
God bless you Larry. I just know, by hearing you, that you're a wonderful human being.😊😊
You need to get a copy of Larry's book, "I Don't Know How I Made It, But I Did" He has a chapter on Buddy, but he was also one of the first Marines, to go into Hiroshima after the bomb was dropped. Talk about emotional.
I have his entire interview that I did with him at his home in Lubbock if you are interested. He talks with me about his WWII service. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
58 years to this day we lost such talented people, Buddy, Ritchie and the Big Bopper, my heart goes out to all their families including the pilot's mr. Peterson Such a tragic incident R.I.P. XXXXX All the way from Scarborough, North Yorkshire. UK. .Never forgotten
Thank you Vicky. I appreciate you watching and commenting all the way from the UK. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com

Thank you for your comment!!
That is so sweet and precious! Larry you and yours are sincerely always in my thoughts and in my heart, just want you to know that you are each deeply treasured and appreciated!
Buddy touched so many lives and will be admired and missed beyond this century.
Buddy was the true king of rock and roll
I found buddy holly after his passing and my heart hurts like yours. I remember listening to his music in the hot summer of 1976 and when I found out he had already passed I felt like I had gone with him. What a beautiful person he was and some how I know this snd I have never met him. May his wonderfull music live on FOREVER
That was pretty awesome. You can feel how much Larry loves his brother. RIP Buddy

Thank you Larry for sharing with us. Buddy was/is the greatest, no doubt about it. A tragic loss for the music world. He was with me in my teen years & still is. God rest his soul.
Clearly he still misses his brother so much that it brings a tear to his eye, and why wouldn't it. Cheers
Thank you for watching my film clip Darryl. God bless you!!

Buddy Holly was a great man. I always enjoyed his music. Good to see his brother still alive and healthy, telling stories about him. R.I.P Buddy
Thanks Joe.
yep that made me cry
Me too.
The love Larry has for his little brother...wow...so raw the emotion. Mr Holley, your brother is so loved and admired throughout the world. You loved him most, and we know there will never be anyone like him. I think Buddy was a really good guy, I believe I would have got on well with him. A really nice guy, and so talented.
David this was one of the most cherished and loved interviews I have done. I interviewed Larry for 90 minutes. We talked of his service during WWII also.
David if you would be interested in the entire 90 minute interview of Buddy Holly's brother, Larry Holley, please email me. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
I remember the day he died. I was about 4 years old and my sister told me but I was too young to know who he was of course.
Thank you for the video Sir. Seeing his brother is a sharp reminder of what he could have been if he had been spared.
May he rest in peace and may his family be blessed
Buddy Holly was a great man with a great family. He had a wonderful short life and lived to the fullest while he.was here. Buddy loved people!
Dear Larry Buddy,s music was and still is Great and always will be Norman Petty did do a good job in his producing the music. God Bless You All love Jenny.

Their aunt was my gym teacher in high school. We would just talk sometimes. She spoke of Buddy with great affection and pride. Now that I'm an aunt, I better understand her loss. She was a sweet lady. Seems like a pretty nice family.

Buddy Holly was a true instrument of nature! And a gift from the musical gods for all the world to enjoy! RIP Buddy😢💜❤️💙🌹
thanks larry for the interview,
Buddy Holley, the very first Stratocaster legend.
The key to Buddy's singing was he sang with so much feeling. AMEN. With Jesus. And MY brother. Not much longer, Larry ... we won't have to wait much longer ...

God Bless you Larry Buddy enspired me so much I still sing his songs in My act In the UK
My older brother was in a band in 1958-61 called The Corals. He played every single Buddy Holly song and threw his voice to sound like Buddy. I was 10 years old sitting on our couch in our living room when the news flashed that Buddy had been killed with Richie Valens and the Big Bopper. I became so upset that I cried. Buddy was part of our family. We all were never quite the same after his death.

@@jessicawiley5797 I am retired now.
As a young an growing up in the 70s with an uncle who very much admired buddy holly i realised what an amazing talent I was listening too. Buddy holly is and will aways be one of the most amazing singer/musicians of all time. This is a musician singer bigger than elvis will ever be
Thank you for your kind comments. Buddy will forever be a legend. I hope you can watch some of my cover songs of Buddys.
Amazing how love never dies. Thanks for sharing this interview. Very touching.
Buddy Holly had the best brother a brother could have.
In this interview Larry still sounds like he had not gotten over Buddy's death
Sorry for writing you, just out of curiosity your page come up on my suggested friend lists so I was just wondering if I knew you from somewhere?!!...
I was born ten years after Buddy died and it still makes no sense to me why he had to die. It changed the history of music for sure.
@Ray Pellerin I was born in 73 so a good while after Buddy had passed.
@@jessicawiley5797 maybe
Words can’t say enough about what happened. But for that short time the boys had on earth they sure did make an impact. All three were talented enough to make any music icon these days jealous with envy. Buddy’s music was pioneering and still today it is been played all over the world and definitely one of the greatest and we should never forget.
Thank you for watching my interview with Larry. God bless you!!

Nice interview with Buddy Holleys brother. All these years and still feels sadness. So does the world my friend. Take care
Thank you for watching my interview with Larry Holley Phyllis: Larry R. Cappetto - larrycappetto.com
"I think of Buddy up there with the Lord." So do i Larry Holley, Buddy had some of the
greatest music. So many songs have been covered by others. Most don't
sing any where near the quality or feelings of Buddy.
I think of the strings and all, such good stuff. I was there from His beginning with
the Crickets. I worked at a grocery store and a friend told me there he had died.
I still have the records i bought. I bought a best of- type of album three years ago.
God Bless and comfort you Larry, millions still listen to his music and love Buddy.
Thank you for watching my interview with Larry Holley. I appreciate your comment too. Great information. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
Larry, that was a wonderful short interview. Buddy was my very favorite singer. I even had an exact pair of those black framed glasses I wore everyday. God bless you and all the Holly relatives. Favorite songs: Everyday, Rave On and It Doesn't Matter Anymore.
This was absolutely heart wrenching. I feel so sorry for Buddy's family. They loved him so much.
Thank you for your comment and for watching my interview. I have met the Holley family and they are amazing people.
Buddy's mother, how she talked, etc reminded me of my mother. They are very strong people to go thru such a tragedy yet keeping their dignity and composure. One thing I just don't understand is why Maria Elena packed up and left for NY not bothering to go to Buddy's funeral. According to the book, Whatever happened to Peggy Sue, by Peggy Sue Gerron, not seeing Maria at the funeral, she went to the Holley residence to check on her. Peggy said that Maria was dressed in a white outfit and according to the book, Maria said Buddy is dead and she was going back to her home in NY. I know Maria has all the rights basically to Buddy's life, but there just so many questions about her and how she conducted herself with Buddy and others in his circle, that as a fan of Buddy, can't help but wonder about.
I would like to hear more. Please send me an email. Thank you. EMAIL: lcappetto@icloud.com
People who managed and promoted Buddy expected him to become bigger than Elvis. He would have. He was such a great musician and the sound that he had developed was amazing.
