Rave On

This week, M. Ward, Marshall Crenshaw, The Real Kids and Sonny West all battle it out over Buddy Holly’s defining version of “Rave On.” We remember the musical legacy of Buddy Holly as we approach the 51st anniversary of his tragic death. “Rave On,” one of Buddy’s signature tunes was written by Bill Tighman, Norman Petty AND Sonny West. Sonny actually recorded the tune FIRST in early 1958, but it was Holly’s version in May of ’58 that would propel the tune to #37 on the charts. From there, many different renditions of the song have appeared. I’ve chosen four of them for your consideration this week. Don’t try and compare them to Buddy’s version, as they will all surely fall short. Please try and compare them against each other and vote for the one you truly DIG THE MOST!
