317 The Crickets with Buddy Holly (1936-1959) “Maybe Baby” 1958

“Though Buddy usually had the original idea for the melody and the themes of the lyrics, the songs were often finished in the company of the other Crickets.” Joe Mauldin said, “We’d say, ‘Well, let’s put so-an-so’s name on that one.’ And I don’t think Buddy cared that he might be giving away money this way” (Goldrosen and Beecher, Remembering Buddy).
