Somethin' else

Description

Six decades since his passing have in no way diminished the interest in listening to Eddie CochranIt took Eddie Cochran only a handful of tracks, recorded over just three years, to become the most iconic Rock'n'Roll artist. The Grim Reaper, who sometimes strikes the wise rather than the crook, got the better of a destiny that seemed promising and fruitful. More than a singer, Eddie Cochran was above all a guitarist and a musician. Gifted with an original style, a sliding playing style and excellent picking technique, he was a fine instrumentalist, often hired to accompany other singers. Rather than forever mourning the ghost of a body of work that could not be fully realized, let us rejoice in being able to listen again to the timeless songs he left us.CD digipack: > 72 tracks including 58 originals + 14 alternative versions (Summertime blues, Pretty girl...), rare (Fool's paradise, I want Elvis for Christmas...) and live (Money honey, Sweet little sixteen...)> 40-page booklet - French / English text> Limited editionDouble vinyl: his 32 best tracks
