This used to be subversive
Silly monkeys.
Buddy Holly rocked.
And there will always be Republicans to tell us he and people like him don't.

I thought you'd all enjoy a bit of rock 'n' roll tonight, to get your minds off the New Depression
Here's another one

wow, I don't see a cable from his guitar to the amp. Was buddy one of the first to have a wireless transmitter on his guitar to amp connection?
50 years went by like standing still
I like this one better, but I do listen to oldies:

I believe it's called lip-syncing...
The day the music died was 50 years ago, yesterday...
From wikipedia:
"J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper)had developed a case of the flu during the tour and asked one of Holly's bandmates, Waylon Jennings, for his seat on the plane; Jennings agreed to give up the seat. When Holly learned that Jennings wasn't going to fly, he said, "Well, I hope your ol' bus freezes up." Jennings responded, "Well, I hope your ol' plane crashes." This exchange of words, though made in jest at the time, haunted Jennings for the rest of his life.
Ritchie Valens had never flown in a small plane before, and asked Holly's remaining bandmate on the plane, Tommy Allsup, for the seat. Tommy said "I'll flip ya for the remaining seat." Contrary to what is seen in biographical movies, that coin toss did not happen at the airport shortly before takeoff, nor did Buddy Holly toss it. The toss happened at the ballroom shortly before departure to the airport, and the coin was tossed by a DJ who was working the concert that night. Valens won a seat on the plane.
Dion DiMucci of Dion & The Belmonts, who was the fourth headline performer on the tour, was approached to join the flight as well; however, the price of $36 was too much. Dion had heard his parents argue for years over the $36 rent for their apartment and could not bring himself to pay an entire month's rent for a short plane ride."

It's plugged-in, it's a strat, it doesn't look that way, but stats have a weird plug-in, I wish I had that guitar, but then again, it would be like wanting to have a Mc-Mansion. Yes, that guitar should be in some museum somewhere, it may be, but it's probably a fake, just like everything else these days.
But, no, that is all "live", fake-shit wasn't "cool" back then, even James Dean went-out in a flaming/crushing hell, like his character in, "Rebel without a cause".
It took me about a minute to think of that movie, must be getting old, also Sal Mineo died tragically from a knife wound during a mugging and Natalie Wood died in a tragic drowning at sea at a fairly young age, they were also stars in that movie. She was also Elvis Presley's young girl freind and Elvis died at 42 yo.
Ain't the USA a great place! Long live Buddy Holly!
Still trying to understand the hip-hop thing, unsucessfully. Actually I gave up on that one.
Anon's,
Take a look at the bottom left of the guitar- there is a patch cord in place and it looks like it goes into his suit or trousers. You can see a faint cord going into his amplifier- I think his guitar is really connected. His chord changes match the music.
For vocals- maybe this is lip synced or he's singing so loud an area mic picks it up???

I believe this is the most important issue Soot and Ashes has ever focused in on: Is he or is he not plugged into that amp. And by implication was he or was he not lip-syncing. I hope someone out there who anything to do with that show comes forward to resolve this issue.
Maybe our grandparents were right about rock and roll. It all went down hill after that. And this from a HUGE Black Sabbath fan...
