"This is a beautiful, piano led album that goes alongside perfectly with the film it was made for.

This is mainly due to the delicate and fantastic instrumentation, such as the pian..."  [+]  Reply

"Nine Top Ten hits in barely two years and then a fateful flight on a small plane (some claim was called the American Pie) and Buddy Holly entered the realm of rock & roll legend. I consider this album a must have."  Reply
