He was one of the only American rock musicians to tour England in 1958, and was also on Sunday Night at the Palladium while he was there, so many young people got to see him live, unlike other American performers who didn't tour overseas. He also was one of the biggest influences on The Beatles in sound and name, the name of his band "The Crickets" influencing The Beatles to choose their name. John Lennon was especially a huge fan of Buddy.
