Sonny Curtis (born May 9, 1937) is an American singer and songwriter. Most of his work falls into the pop and country genres. He was a teenage pal and band member with Buddy Holly in Lubbock, Texas. Sonny is his actual first name, not a nickname. Curtis was born in Meadow, Texas, United States. He played on some of Buddy Holly's earlier 1956 Decca sessions including minor hit 'Blue Days Black Nights' and a song he wrote 'Rock Around With Ollie Vee'. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Sonny+Curt

Quotes

  • A-breakin' rocks in the hot sun I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won I miss my baby and the good fun I fought the law and the law won I fought the law and the law won.
  • Love is all around, no need to waste it You can have the town, why don't you take it? You might just make it after all.
