Hollyville U.K. Rarities
Please be patient and let the images load.....it's worth it!
I truly can't remember if I cried or if I thought that the music died but I'm pretty sure that as the years passed I knew that the songs that Buddy had made were of the very best quality and that I was sure that there was no one out there to replace the sheer width of styles that he had accomplished in his short time in and out of the spotlight.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


 


This album cover has got to be just about the rarest covers in the world because it was an in-store offer sold by Marks & Spencer in the U.K. in 1980.... the only problem was that they just didn't publicize the fact that they were selling records!
 
 








 



 
 
 

This photo was taken in one of those booths whilst Buddy and Waylon Jennings had a few spare moments on the "Winter Dance Party" tour that proved to be such a disaster for all who participated. The cold unreliable buses arrived late at each destination and gave the entourage no time to get clean laundry or attend to vital business. However from this picture it seems that it wasn't all misery!
 
 






 


This acetate on the right is of "That's What They Say" which was a planned release by DECCA in 1970 but never made it to the shops unfortunately. In the U.K. Buddy's early Decca singles were put out on Brunswick (as shown by the pre-release demo single on the left. Buddy's Coral recordings were released at first on Vogue-Coral but later the two names were split to become separate labels.
