"Buddy Holly" was the second single released from ''The Blue Album''.  Its initial cover art featured a photo of a very young Rivers with a female friend.  Apparently, the photo was used before gaining permission from this girl, and a search for her turned up fruitless.  When [[Geffen]] realized they may be in an actionable position, they quickly changed the cover, and a photo of Rivers and his brother [[Leaves]] was used instead.

The incorrect cover only appears on promo copies of the single, except in Austrailia, who rushed a "Buddy Holly" single out so fast, it not only included the banned photo, but no exclusive B-sides.  [[Karl Koch]] would later say, "These Austrailians seem to rush into everything."

The retail single utilized live recordings from a November 1994 show in Rochester, New York as B-sides, along with the [[DGC Rarities, Vol. 1|DGC Rarities]]'' version of "[[Jamie]]".
