From his wild days as a juvenile delinquent, to his first romances, to his early associations with then virtually unknown singers like Elvis Presley and Waylon Jennings, Holly emerges as a deeply tortured, driven individual and a brilliantly talented young man in a hurry to make it as a star. And like many stars, Buddy Holly's would ultimately be tragic and bittersweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46405661556946,"sku":"674f5889-c36f-3c77-8450-c85a2825f2fb","price":17.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/image_49a7549e-cd16-4345-aa44-204d0ab394e1.jpg?v=1763050779","url":"https:\/\/www.indigo.ca\/products\/buddy-holly","provider":"Indigo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
