In Style was the first album release from The Crickets after the grievous loss in an air crash of front man Buddy Holly, a tragedy from which the group never fully recovered. (UK:13)

“To any fans of Holly or rockabilly who have not heard this music, you should pick it up ASAP. It is a superb collection by a group that never really made it.”

“Every cut is well produced and executed. Check out the original I Fought The Law for the 'zip gun' juvenile delinquent lyric Loves Made A Fool Of You, Deborah and When You Ask About Love which are some of the best songs of the era. The Brits knew this and charted several of these. Enough said.”

“The Crickets, post Buddy Holly had a lot to live up to. Let’s face it no group could have survived the loss of such a talent as Holly, whether it was writing some of the best pop songs of the last 50 years, his unique vocal style or his electrifying guitar work. So, yes, post Holly they were never quite as effective a force. Nevertheless in their own right they remain an extremely professional and enjoyable group with a wide range of material, and the ability to deliver soft, almost bubble gum rock, as well as beat rockers.”
