Not Fade Away

Hi,
I just got the mini 2.
I’m a Deadhead and I’m wondering what setting you guys use to get your Bo Diddley/Not Fade Away/Iko groove on.

Thank

Unfortunately I have the mini 2 so unless I’m missing something I can’t use that file.
Thank you though

Just a note: Not Fade Away was by Buddy Holly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRR2xZ5Y6Ww

Try “Country” , " Second Line".

Good call, this is pretty close!

@JFairweather yes, but it is undeniably built on the Bo-Diddley beat!

It’s actually by Charles Hardin and Norman Petty. But indeed Buddy Holly deserves a lot of credit for making it famous. Cheers!

Charles Hardin Holley. Buddy was his nickname.

BTW, I knew Norm Petty. We spoke a good number of times. He had a studio in Clovis and used to come to our studio in Amarillo for mastering.
