Those apartment recordings are terrific, and as far as covers go, I can never get enough of Rick Danko singing "Rainin' in My Heart", a song that sounds as if it were written for him.jeff knoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-28796959829114757972012-07-12T17:14:22.942-07:002012-07-12T17:14:22.942-07:00Poor Side is a great song.

Love my Buddy and "Words of Love", partial to the Beatles one of course (their sincere admiration for Holly infuses their version), but I really like all of them. <br /><br />I have always loved "Poor Side of Town" specifically Rivers' version, his phrasing/singing. Thanks for sharing the Lowe one, nice. It was actually the earworm I woke up with this morning, so it was weird seeing it here though in a different version of course.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995401767239413515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-15726297519580974842012-07-12T10:45:14.051-07:002012-07-12T10:45:14.051-07:00I love the fact (among others) that the drums are ...I love the fact (among others) that the drums are J.I.'s levis.John Wickernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-31539059364406683702012-07-12T09:27:05.862-07:002012-07-12T09:27:05.862-07:00Can't argue about a great song.

Wherever it stemmed or was derived from, it's three chord heaven, like many other of Buddy's songs.<br /><br />The Beatles, Shoes and Jeff Lynne really nail it. The Patti Smith version, I think I'll take a pass on. Too much of a dirge.<br /><br />Good choice Sal!FD13NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964671671960423199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-16897271908377492082012-07-12T08:05:09.778-07:002012-07-12T08:05:09.778-07:00Poor Side of Town is a great cover.

He had no idea when he recorded this that Johnny Rivers had had a big hit with it in the US.sclinchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18069220308628291546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-20707195913702544512012-07-12T05:56:21.930-07:002012-07-12T05:56:21.930-07:00You know of my love of Buddy Holly Sal and Words O...You know of my love of Buddy Holly Sal and Words Of Love is amazing.<br /><br />My parents were big Buddy Holly fans and I'd have to admit that the great man was what spiked my interest in music as a young kid.Anything Should Happenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05593722184088140203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-72502126807918669332012-07-12T05:42:14.546-07:002012-07-12T05:42:14.546-07:00What a great surprise.
