December 24, 2022 Records of the Day

You can thank John Wayne for one of Rock N Roll’s greatest hits. A young Buddy Holly sat in a darkened movie theater in 1956 watching the western classic, “The Searchers.” In the film when Wayne, in his distinctive style says, “That’ll be the day,” Holly was inspired and thus was born his first big hit. The original single on Decca can sell for $300.00.The “That’ll Be the Day” album, released on Decca Records in 1957, is worth up to $250.00 if the record label is multi-colored and up to $800.00 today if the record label is black. Little things can make a BIG difference in the value of records.
