the result of this poll proves what don mclean said, when buddy was killed, it was the day music died.

Hey, I think it was a bit unfortunate pairing the two of them up at such an early stage of proceedings to be honest with you, especially when you see some of the other pairs that are on here, but I think Marvin Gaye has the edge over him in terms of vocal ability and legacy. His career spanned so many important stages of the development of rhythm and blues and don't forget about some of the albums he produced when he broke free from the shackles of Motown, which are just masterpieces and had a profound impact on so many young artists of the time, like Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson etc. I just think he's a legend. So is Holly obviously but Gaye takes it for me.
