Hi Cousin, This is a great web site! I loved the pictures of your family. I had forgotten how much my dad and your dad looked alike. Except, I never saw my dad with a moustache! And never saw your dad without one. Great memories!

I'm a 5th generation Texan, my dad grew up in the fifties and used to talk about Buddy Holly and The Picks, think he saw ya'll live somewhere here in Texas. People have been calling me Pick since the seventh grade. Was wearing some reading glasses the other day and I guy I Work asked me where me and the Crickets were playing. Got me thining about the guys my dad used to talk about, so here I am. Maybe we're kin somewhere down the line. Thanks for listening to me ramble. Tim Pickering, Flynn, TX.

Great to hear about the Grammy nomination and good to be back in contact with John. The music is as fresh and new today as it was back in 1958. I never grow tired of listening to it.

We hope you are enjoying the Panda Cheese commercials out of Egypt that are being seen worldwide on search engines. Buddy Holly & The Picks "True Love Ways" is used as the music on the video.http://il.youtube.com/watch?v=RzLmiMvVh-E

I recenty turned twenty and have enjoyed listening to Buddy Holly for years. I read a few books about Buddy with interesting information about the remarkable background singers 'The Picks'. I have always loved the sound of full background singers and the Picks have satisfied my ears entirely! Thank You Picks!

I loved Buddy's music since I was 12, in 1957. I have searched for the identity of the singers who "made" those recordings so beautiful.

I am so grateful to finally have found the answers! You did a wonderful job on those recordings. I have listened for so many years from time to time and have been so blessed by your great harmonies. At times I thought it was a duo, trio & even a quartet. The mysteries have finally been solved.

Just know, that despite the relative anonymity, you have made millions of people happy with your gifts.

Thanks so much,

Stan W

I have loved the music of Buddy Holly,The Crickets and The Picks for most of my life. The songs sound as great now in 2010 as when they were first recorded. Your website is terrific.
