Eddie CochranThe Unforgettable Hits

Raw, hiccupping rockabilly from one of the wild originals, gone before he turned twenty-two. 'Summertime Blues' stomps on that immortal, foot-dragging riff and teenage frustration, while 'C'mon Everybody' bursts with party-starting swagger. Lean, electric, and impossibly cool, this catches rock and roll in its first reckless flush. The blueprint, delivered with a snarl.
