Bobby Vee Meets The Crickets is a cross-over rock and roll album that brings singer Bobby Vee together with the Crickets. It was Vee's 7th album and The Crickets' second release following the departure and subsequent death of their front man, Buddy Holly. The album contains new versions of three songs written by or recorded by Holly—Peggy Sue, Bo Diddley, and Well...All Right—and a host of cover versions of 1950s rock'n'roll songs by artists like Little Richard and Chuck Berry. Originally released as an LP record on July 14, 1962, the album was re-released on CD in 1991, with bonus tracks not featured on the original album.

The album made its first appearance on Billboard Top LPs chart in the issue dated July 21 of that year and remained on the album chart for 23 weeks, peaking at #42. It was more successful in The UK, where it spent for 27 weeks on the album chart there peaking at #2, the highest position Vee achieved on the chart there"
