Originally, the group comprised Niki Sullivan on rhythm guitar, Jerry Allison on drums, and Joe Mauldin on bass, but Sullivan dropped out after a year or so. After Holly's death, they continued performing with several changes in the line-up. The photo shows: (left to right) Allison, Holly and Mauldin.
