Waylon Jennings and Buddy Holly
These two best friends are posing in a photobooth together for what would become a pretty iconic photo! Buddy Holly is best known for his influence in rock and roll. He’s influenced the likes of the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Bob Dylan. Jennings was playing bass for Holly when this photo was taken, but Jenning Secures is own recording rights and began his own career in the 1960s. Jennings says of Holly, “Buddy was the first person to have faith in my music. He encouraged me in my music and my writing. He was my friend. If anything I’ve ever done is remembered, part of it is because of Buddy Holly.” Jennings ended up altering how country music was made, including influencing the outlaw movement with Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson.
