Dave
was introduced to his first 45 record player by Buddy Holly on one of the
Greyhound buses that he
and
the Crickets shared. This was the only fitting since Dave and The
Diamonds' "Little Darlin" was the
first
hit record on that new seven inch innovation, the 45 RPM record.
The Diamonds formed in 1955 with
Dave
somerville, Mike Douglas, Ted Kowalski and Bill Reed. All were vocalists
and were riding the road
of
the beginning of Rock and Roll.
