Oh, Boy

Buddy Holly Now! - Review:

A four year gap since 'Yeah, Buddy!' has given Runaway Express time to develop a few new ideas; this one is a bit more challenging, but the tracks that don't get you first time around do get you in the end.

Again, their strength is that they are true to the character of the songs, but take the space to interpret them in their own way. They are keeping the music alive - as it should be! (Too many 'fans' want to keep Buddy Holly in a museum!).

Go on - risk a few dollars. You may not like every track, but I'm sure there's something here for everyone, and quite a lot for most. Listen to the lyrics; listen to the music, and don't forget the harmonies; it's all here.

Andrew Heenan
