The book contains all of the technical information pertaining to his songs. Look up a song title and it lists all known versions (released or unreleased) and information relating to the song's writer, who performed on each version, when and where it was recorded and special notes and stories pertaining to the title. Also, transcriptions of all the known radio station promos and various interviews. A special section on all the songs on which Buddy played guitar and/or sings but received no label credit as it was another artist's song. There is a clickable index at the front of the book so you can go directly to the chapter you want. BUDDY HOLLY & CRICKETS - CLOVIS CHECKS & STUBS IMAGES This 301 page CD-ROM is basically images ofthe various checks, counter checks and the check stub ledger entries for the Buddy Holly and The Crickets checking account maintained in Clovis, New Mexico. From the original run of 213 checks, eight are not depicted, four as I belive are too personaland four that were missing originally. Full page width images of the front and back of each check are presented in color with one check to a page. The check stub ledger has three entries per page with with two pages depicted on one book page. Since you cannot search for an image, each page contains text with the check number, date, written to whom and any notes either on the check or the stub so creative searching is possible. There is no index since the checks are presented in numerical and dated order [regular checks first, counter checks next and check stub ledger entries last].

In order to read these discs, you must have ADOBE READER installed on your computer. If you don't already, you can download a free version at www.adobe.com. With Adobe Reader, you can see the pages (and photos) in their regular size, make them bigger or smaller, and with horizontal pages, turn them so they can be read. (All pages are put in as a vertical). You can also print the entire file or a single page. If you blow up a portion of a page, you can print just that portion. There are a lot of functions once you become familiar with it. NOTE: Some pages may be slightly crooked, but they are very readable. Some pages from old files may be "dirty" looking with black specks, etc. This is how the original page looked and can't be corrected. Bill took pride in publishing lots of photos, especially some that were being published for the first time. As a rule, photos turn our rather badly on an adobe prepared disc. All photos on these discs are scanned at high resolution for optimum quality. MOST of our Adobe files are searchable using the optical recognition process. Handwriting, writing on photos is not searchable, and sometimes the process misses a word completely. Each issue was originally copyrighted by Bill and a 2008 copyright is on the this complete digital version. It is registered on Ebay's VERO program.
