BONUS EPISODE: Hall of Fame Drummer Jerry Allison on Buddy Holly & The Crickets' 1957 Seattle Visit

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel digs into the "field tape archives" for his 2017 conversation with the late Jerry Allison, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame drummer for Buddy Holly and The Crickets, about the band's only visit to Seattle in October 1957. Mr. Allison passed away in 2022 at age 82. As Feliks says in the intro, "I confess, this is a bit of fan-boy interview, and the sound is on the somewhat sketchy side. The main goal was to gather Mr. Allison’s recollections of the Crickets’ one and only visit to Seattle in October 1957, but we also jumped around a bit, topically speaking. I like to think I’m a better interviewer now than I was in 2017. While that may or may not be true, I definitely have better recording gear."
