What were some of buddy holly's achievements?
It is a shame that Buddy Holly died so young, because he undoubtedly would have become even more famous than he did. His main achievement was having a number of hit songs in the early years of rock & roll, as a member of the rockabilly group Buddy Holly & the Crickets, and as a solo artist. His two biggest were probably "That'll Be the Day" (with the Crickets) and "Peggy Sue" (as a solo artist). To this day, his hit songs from the 1950s are still performed by contemporary rock and country performers.
