I agree with Lothar about "Aha" not being Buddy. I would hope that would be fairly obvious based on what has been posted on youtube.

As for Derek's message about about the live "Maybe Baby" CD/LP that we released ("Off The Record"), I can confirm that sales were low, but that was only to be expected due to the dwindling fan base of serious Buddy Holly & Crickets collectors. Universal certainly don't consider BH&C collectors items to be worth bothering with. They prefer to repackage the hits over and over...

The best we can hope for is that a few remaining unreleased items will eventually be released. I have heard the tapes that were 'discovered' a year or so ago by Maria and regret to say that I did not hear anything that we have not heard before. No disrespect, but I would not particularly expect Chris Difford to be an expert in such matters.
