The Beatles 1963:                           A letter to the Crickets - Brief an die Crickets

	THE  BEATLES  1963

Die Beatles waren glühende Verehrer von Buddy Holly und den Crickets. Ohne die Crickets hätte es nach ihrer Aussage keine Beatles gegeben.

Ohne Buddy Holly hätte es John Lennon nie gewagt, mit Brille aufzutreten.

Der erste Song überhaupt, den die Beatles aufnahmen (damals noch als "The Quarrymen"), war THAT'LL BE THE DAY.

Was wundert es also, dass sie 1963 einen Brief an die Crickets schrieben.

                 The Beatles were true fans of Buddy Holly and The Crickets.

This is the reason that their first recording was "THAT'LL BE THE DAY" by Buddy Holly & The Crickets.

They told journalists, that there wouldn't have been any BEATLES without THE CRICKETS.

Buddy Holly and his music inspired the Beatles and their first 40 songs, according to Paul McCartney.

                       In 1963 The Beatles wrote a letter to the Crickets.
