Buddy Holly’s hit version of this song ranked #155 on the Rolling Stone ‘500 Greatest Songs Of All Time’ and was one of Holly’s biggest hits. This 80’s remake of the Sonny West, Bill Tilghman and Norman Petty composition took a Southern Rock tilt — with flavors of Cajun groove and Rockabilly. The John Mellencamp version was featured on the 1988 soundtrack to the Tom Cruise film ‘Cocktail’. ‘Rave On’ is a great Blues-based number and has plenty of room for Guitar and Horns to do their thing!
