Eddie Cochran - The Unforgettable Hits Collection 1956-62 (LP)

Stock Status: Temporarily Out Of Stock

Eddie Cochran was one of the most iconic figures of the rock ‘n’ roll era, his mystique and legendary status heightened by his tragic death in a road accident in 1960 when he was only 22. With heartthrob good looks and stylish image, he featured in the movie “The Girl Can’t Help It” even before he had a hit record.

He was a sensational songwriter, a hyper energetic performer and innovative guitarist, pushing his instrument to the limit, using unwound strings to add a different and more emotive voice.

This 20 track LP celebrates Cochran’s legacy by bringing together all his hits, the most memorable tracks and glories in the young man’s tenacious talent. It naturally includes the landmark records C’Mon Everybody, Twenty Flight Rock, Summertime Blues, Somethin’ Else, Three Steps To Heaven and Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, ending with the incredibly intimate, rendition of Pink-Pegged Slacks. All in all, it provides an in-depth overview of his glittering career and is a must for any rock n roller.
