Buddy Holly - Rave On - The Story Of A Musical Legend

On February 3rd 1959 in a snow-covered cornfield near Mason City, Iowa, the plane carrying Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and 'Big Bopper' J.P. Richardson crash-landed, killing everyone on board. Buddy Holly was just 23 years old and his career had spanned a little over two years. His hits, including 'That'll Be The Day', 'Peggy Sue' and 'Oh Boy', were some of the most influential in early rock 'n' roll. He was one of the first to use drums and rhythm with the basic country style and his band The Crickets were among the earliest to use the new standard line-up of two guitars, bass and drums. Buddy Holly's vocal style and melodic compositions inspired many later musicians - the Rolling Stones' first major hit was a cover of his song 'Not Fade Away'. Featuring contributions from international stars such as Keith Richards, Waylon Jennings, Phil Everly and Graham Nash as well as a host of photos, rare footage, performance clips and exclusive interviews.

Jacques Cousteau Odyssey - Complete Series

During a period of over 40 years Jacques Cousteau crossed the world many times over in their ships, the Calypso and the Alcyone, filming the undersea world as never seen before to create a unique collection of entertaining and informative films for the whole family. Since 1943 when he and Emile Gagnan developed the first regulated compressed-air breathing device for deep sea diving (the Aqualung), until his death in 1997, Captain Cousteau was a leading spokesman for the protection of the underwater world and the global environment. Born in France in 1910, Cousteau first started filming in 1951, when he perfected the first underwater camera equipment. The films his team made constitute a unique record of the marine environment, introducing millions of people across the planet to the marvels of the undersea world and the importance of protecting it. Filmed between 1977 and 1981, The Jacques Cousteau Odyssey is a 3 disc box set which includes Calypso's search for the lost island of Atlantis, and leads to a quest to save the Adriatic and Mediterranean seas and the Nile river from ecological disaster. It was an Odyssey worthy of the most imaginative mythological explorations, taking viewers from lost civilizations to new-found Greek relics, uncovering beautiful underwater sanctuaries and bizarre bioluminescent fish in the deepest, darkest and most silent recesses of the ocean. This is the complete original 12 episode series on three discs.
