Eddie Cochran

Eddie Cochran, ‘C’mon Everybody’, 1958. Not ‘come on’, but ‘c’mon’. Slang. From America. Shudder. But the Kids know. Rock n Roll, daddio! Great riff on his Gretsch guitar, with sharp, funny lyrics. Eddie Cochran was the same age as the kids who bought his stuff. Elvis was already 23 and in the Army. This is the sound of Youth, school and being cool.

Tri-centre middle, which boosts the price for any would-be anorak collectors out there…
