Allmusic's critic William Ruhlmann gave this very rare and collectible disc a near-perfect 4 ½ stars, and wrote: "The debut album by The Crickets and the only one featuring Buddy Holly released during his lifetime, Buddy Holly And The Crickets (a 1962 reissue of the 1957 album The "Chirping" Crickets) contains the group's #1 single "That'll Be The Day" and its Top 10 hit "Oh, Boy!" Other Crickets classics include "Not Fade Away," "Maybe Baby," and "I'm Looking For Someone To Love." … those five are among the best rock 'n' roll songs of the 1950s or ever, making this one of the most significant album debuts in rock 'n' roll history, ranking with Elvis Presley and Meet The Beatles." The Goldmine Guide values this album at $150 in NM condition, but you can enjoy this very playable, hard-to-find specimen for a LOT less.
