"Peggy Sue" is a rock and roll song written by Buddy Holly, Jerry Allison, and Norman Petty, and originally performed, recorded and released as a single by Holly in early July of 1957. The Crickets are not mentioned on the single (Coral 9-61885) but both Joe B. Mauldin (string bass) and Jerry Allison (drums) are on the recording.〔(Buddy Holly Timeline. )〕 The song was also released on Buddy Holly's eponymous 1958 album. The song is ranked #197 on the ''Rolling Stone'' magazine's 2010 list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song was originally called "Cindy Lou", and was named for Buddy's niece, the daughter of his sister Pat Holley Kaiter. The title was later changed to "Peggy Sue" in reference to Crickets drummer Jerry Allison's girlfriend (and future wife), Peggy Sue Gerron, with whom he had recently had a temporary breakup.〔Amburn, p. 78.〕 Appropriately, Allison played a prominent role in the production of the song, playing paradiddles on the drums throughout the song, the drums' sound rhythmically fading in and out as a result of real-time engineering techniques by the producer, Norm Petty. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum placed the song on its list of the "songs that shaped rock and roll".〔(Songs That Shaped Rock and Roll: "Peggy Sue". Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. )〕 The song went to #3 on the ''Billboard'' Top 100 chart in 1957. The song is currently ranked as the 106th greatest song of all time, as well as the third best song of 1957, by Acclaimed Music.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Acclaimed Music Top 3000 songs )〕 In 1999, National Public Radio (NPR) included "Peggy Sue" on the NPR 100, a list of "The 100 most important American musical works of the 20th century".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NPR 100: Peggy Sue. )〕 The song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Song artist 320 - Buddy Holly. tsort.org. )〕 ==Production== The song was originally called "Cindy Lou", and was named for Buddy's niece, the daughter of his sister Pat Holley Kaiter.

Joe B. Mauldin (string bass) and Jerry Allison (drums) are on the recording.〔(Buddy Holly Timeline. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peggy Sue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
