The "Chirping" Crickets by Buddy Holly and the Crickets
Style: Rockabilly, Rock and Roll
Release: 1957
Length: 25 min.
Round: Rock and Roll
I've heard a lot of rock and roll on the radio and tv. But I have to say I'm not really impressed with some of the choices on the list, and by that I mean I fail to see how they are rock and roll. Animals? The Yardbirds? British Blues and Blues Rock. So, The Circkets was a little bit of a highlight. Still, it's not the best album on the list.
What do I look for in a rock and roll album? Well, since a lot of the same ideas and songs are used, making a lot of it the same to me, I basically go by how much heart each album has. As for the Crickets debut, they have good songs and a good amount of harmonized vocals that do a good job of backing up the lead vocals. However, at the same time the songs don't seem to have the same heart that Elvis and Little Richard put in their albums. Still, I recommend it for rock and roll. rockabilly fans around, becuase it is an essential for a few great songs.
81/100. My estimate is that I'll vote it off in the middle-to-late stages of the rock and roll round.
