The LP was released in the US in 1957, and in the UK in 1958. It was re-released by Coral in 1962 as Buddy Holly and the Crickets. After being out of print for many years, it was reissued as a remastered CD in 2004 with bonus tracks.

In July 2023, the album was reissued by Rollercoaster Records in England as The Alternative "Chirping" Crickets, a CD containing remixed Mono, Stereo plus the twelve tracks, in stereo but without the backing vocals that the Crickets felt were intrusive and inappropriate. Positive reviews followed.
