Buzz joined The Crickets in 1964 following the ill health of Jerry Naylor. He had previously been with a group called The Casuals. Recording on his own as "Gary Miles" he scored a US top 20 hit "Look For A Star", and wrote the hit song "Everlasting Love".
Buzz hooked up with The Crickets through his association with Snuff Garrett at Liberty Records. Heavily involved with A&R for Liberty, he also had a large part in not only performing, but producing the group.
