True Love Ways (Holly-Petty) by Peter and Gordon, conducted by Geoff Love

This version of the familiar Buddy Holly tune by the British duo was the only recording of it to make a significant dent on the U.S. ‘pop’ charts, though Mickey Gilley’s 1980 version was a #1 country hit. Holly’s 1958 recording hadn’t been released until 1960--more than a year after his death--and made little impact at the time (listen here: [ Ссылка ] )
