THE NORMAN PETTY STUDIO In 1955 Norman Petty opened a recording studio in his hometown of Clovis, New Mexico. A risky venture at the time, the Petty Studio went on to produce some of the greatest rock and roll of the late fifties. Petty's earliest recordings included Roy Orbison, before his work at Sun Stu- dios. Petty also recorded Charlie Phillips, who wrote the song "Sugartime," later a massive hit for the McGuire Sisters. Petty's first real success was "Party Doll," a national hit for Buddy Knox. Lightning struck when Buddy Holly and the Crickets recorded "That'll Be the Day," in February 1957. It went straight to the top of the national charts and es- tablished Holly and the Cricket as rock and roll stars. Over the next two years Holly and the Crickets produced a string of hits at the studio including ‘Every- day,’ ‘Peggy Sue,’ ‘Not Fade Away,’ ‘Its So Easy’ and ‘Heartbeat.’ The Studio had a unique feel and sound. Petty used state of the art recording equipment and technology. The recordings were rockabilly in flavor, but had a cleaner and more polished feel than sessions cut at other regional studios. Petty's recording innovations and Holly's creative musical ability were a win- ning combination. After Holly's tragic death in 1959, Petty shuttered the original Studio and moved to larger facilities in downtown Clovis. Petty continued recording and had some success including hits with the Fireballs in the 1960s. The Fireballs had instrumental hits including "Torquay" and later vocal success with "Sugar Shack," and "Bottle of Wine." Rock & Roll Museum The museum is located in the Clovis Business Enterprise Center, which is also home to the Clovis/Curry County Chamber of Commerce, at 105 E. Grand Ave. It is designed to give visitors a glimpse into the Norman Petty Studios on Seventh Street, where musicians such as Buddy Holly, Buddy Knox, Roy Orbison and other early rock and roll greats recorded some of their hits. Some of the museum’s attractions include the working equipment from the actual studios, including the original mixing board used during Buddy Holly’s recordings. In addition, memorabilia from the Petty’s personal collections are on display, offering a behind-the scenes look at their lives and careers. Even experts in “Petty-ology” will discover something new, with never-before-seen artifacts and many interesting stories captured on video and audio, and displayed throughout the exhibit. The construction of the museum also is unique. It encompasses a re-creation of two of the studio’s rooms, as well as diner booths and lots of neon. A central attraction is the oversized 1950s Fender Stratocaster – the guitar that Buddy Holly made popular. It hangs over the entrance. Since the museum opened in 2008, visitors from around the world have made the music pilgrimage to visit the Seventh Street Studios and the Rock & Roll Museum.
