Eddie was like 50 years ahead from his time , he was a really good guitar player and also a great singer , watching Eddie in this video is electrifying.
Yeah, I'm not surprised ... I never realised Eddie was such a polished live performer such terrific stage presence! I guess these live performances have only appeared because of youtube and other such places otherwise you had to be there. Musical nostalgia and history. Shoot that tiger! 🙂
It's time to make a movie about eddie, not a low budgeted movie but a quality film like bohemian, title choice, cherished memories, 3 steps to heaven or summertime blues. It will gonna be a hit like la Bamba, and eddie's music will be re introduce to the new generations
They gotta play the songs right. I've heard a lot of imitators, and they just can't "get it". Most of the bands are quite sloppy. I'd like to add "Nervous Breakdown" to the program of the proposed movie, as the visual was great, and Eddie performed it with shimmy's and shakes accompanying the lyrics, and you could imagine a fellow in various stages of, well, a nervous breakdown! Too bad we don't have a video of him performing that! Well, if a director asked me how Eddie performed it, I could tell him, if I'm still around.
Eddie was actually a studio musician till someone asked if he would try singing. So he could play guitar with the best of them. He modified his Gretsch , if u look closely, he changed the neck pickup, and a few more modifications, a few years ago Gretsch came out with an Eddie Cochran signature model built the same way Eddie built his. What a great tribute to a great entertainer.
He changed the neck pickup to a dog ear P-90. It gave him the "big sound" he wanted from the 6120, it definitely can be heard on the intros to "Come On Everybody" and "Summertime Blues", he got the best of the P-90 and the DeArmond he left in the bridge position. A local guitarist who I have known for many years uses an Eddie configured 6120 reissue as his main guitar, through a vintage blackface Fender Deluxe Reverb.
You're both wrong Eddie Cochran was well known and is still well known yo people from the era he was popular in. He was a big rock and roll singer in that time he was heard of and known all over the world. It's u that don't know much about him n your age group b cuz y'all were born many years after he had died. And he was n the beginning, of his making hits he was heard of and well known just like Elvis and b cuz he looked a little like Elvis. It is you very young people they haven't heard of him. Because that style of music is not played on the charts and the people that you look upon as sex symbols are people that are in your age as singers and rock and roll just like in every era of music
It is so sad that this extraordinary and charismatic musician had to die so early. I am sure he would have become one of the greatest rock stars well into the sixties.
Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly are forever frozen in time in the Fifties. I wish they had lived into the Sixties at least to see them change and grow musically. It would have been Something Else! Now we will never know what could have been. 😢
This backing group, except for the Drummer, Gene Riggio, is not the backing group he took on his Midwest tour later in '59. It was Riggio on drums, Dave Shriver on bass, and two others. They were known alternately as The Kelly Four, or The Hollywood Swingers. Guitarist Mike Deasy went on to become a studio guitarist in The Wrecking Crew.
Unbelievable, this was 1959! Vocals. Guitar. Looks. Showmanship. Eddie was a cynosure who would have been a huge star. Also, Dick D' Agostin and his band were excellent backing.
This performance took place four days after Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens tragically died in a plane crash. Eddie and Buddy were very good friends and Buddy's death hit Eddie very hard. The great performance Eddie does here shows what a consummate professional he was even though he was grieving for his friend.
Eso si que fue todo un arte, aquellos primeros rokeros....el buen Rock, Bluss hasta que llegaron a los últimos rokeros en los 80ss. Lo mejor del Rock fue 50ss ,60ss, 70ss y 80ss
Amen, Eddie Cochran was absolutely ahead of his time Eddie was such an incredible, guitar player he was taken from us way too soon, just think of the songs he could have created.
Wow!! What an incredible performance by one of the greatest legends of them all. True classic rock music. Definitely stands the test of time. Hail Hail Rock & Roll!!
Very rarely see a Capo on a Bass Guitar, like here doing the Gene Autry Song. Eddie Cochran was a vastly underrated Guitar Player, he was years ahead of his time as a Guitarist. Fantastically talented & a damn shame we lost him at such a young age.
Why not, you can use it to damp the strings for a double bass sound. Or you can use it when you want to play bariton Guitar licks on the Bass. Listen to carol kaye she play the bass offen with this damp (?) sound, listen the Beach Boy song "good vibration" and other songs of the Pet Sound Album she play the bass there.
Mais il y a des Français aujourd'hui qui écoute encore Eddie Cochran car j'ai l'impression d'être le seul qui reste en France sur UA-cam comme un "extra terrestre" qui n'a pas oublié que ce type là, les amis, est le précurseur, le mentor, il a scellé les fondations des musiques Rock diffusées aujourd'hui, et qu'il mériterait selon moi des millions de vues...
Gear Alert- Leo Fender supplied the THP amp backline and was often in the audience. Here you can see numerous shots of a " big box" high powered Fender Twin Amp equipped with a single 15" Altec speaker. "Single 15" equipped Twins were not available to the retail public. During the 1958 Johnny Cash THP footage, his guitar player, Luther Perkins is playing through a prototype brown Tolex Fender Concert Amp with no faceplate. The amp would be publicly released at the end of 1959. On at least one THP show, mention is made from the stage referencing the Fender equipment that Leo supplied. THP was broadcast from 400 S. Long Beach Blvd, Compton CA, not far from the Fender factory then at 500 S. Raymond Ave, Fullerton, CA.
I have seen a few live recordings of Eddie but this is the best. I had The Eddie Cochran Memorial album given to me on my 21st Birthday in 1968 ... I still have it x it's still one of my favourite albums.
charles mays They should make a movie about his relationship with Gene Vincent and their wild days of booze, women and rock n roll in England together prior to Eddie's fatal crash.
When I watch these old films of the early rockers, I am thankful I was born in 1945 . I've lived through all the great genres with the greatest artists. I didn't have the talent, but my brother Joe did and he rocked.
EDDIE COCHRAN WAS NOT ONLY ONE OF THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS BUT HE WAS A HERO. HE THREW HIS BODY OVER HIS GIRL TO SAVE HER LIFE IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHICH INSTEAD KILLED HIM. WHAT CLASS!!!
I would NOT want to die by sacrificing my life for a STUPID girl who had allegedly promised him marriage. If there is any truth in the claim of this strange girl (she's a woman of more than 80 years now - IF SHE STILL LIVES AT ALL) OR NOT A FALSE FEMALE YELLOW PRESS GOSSIP,....no one can prove that. I watched her in an English documentary on Eddie Cochran televised in the early 80s + it looked to me that she was nothing but a very unimpotant person who had happened to intrude into Eddie's precious private life by obsessively bothering him. What an "irony" that Eddie died in the SAME car where she had intruded again + so Eddie could NOT testify anything. You believe EVERY NONSENSE WOMEN TELL YOU, EVEN WHEN THEY ARE DEMENTED IN A NURSING HOME + CHATTER EVEN MORE ABSURD CRAP: YOUR PRIVATE NAIVE LIFE MUST BE REALLY AWFUL.....BUT NAIVE MEN INCURABLY OBSESSED BY ABSURD FAIRY TALES OF DEMENTED OR PRE-DEMENTED WOMEN; CAN MOSTLY NOT BE CURED.
A great posting, We real music lovers appreciate this cat. He was with us for only a short time, but what an influence he'd have on so many to come. Even more amazingly, how many people who have forgotten or just don't know The Great Eddie Cochran. He's rockin' the angels in heaven!
There are very few stations that play the real oldies, I still have my 45 records from the Era of the fifties. These great guys like Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent and Carl Perkins were about the ROCK n ROLL of the 50's. Elvis came along, then the Beatles, sad but it happened.
The guys I liked, the real Rocker's of the 50's, because Elvis came along, but I was ever a fan, because he was not Rock N Roller like these guys. Om so lucky to have grown up in this Era, great music, and I still prefer it.
ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING PERFORMANCE BY MY HERO & THAT EDDIE'S APPEARANCE AT THE 'T.H.P.' HAS SURFACED AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!! THIS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF ANY EDDIE COCHRAN FAN'S COLLECTION!!! WHAT A GUY!!! GREAT TO SEE 'GUYBO' & SEVERAL MEMBERS OF EDDIE'S 'KELLY FOUR' GROUP IN DICK D'AGOSTIN'S BACKING BAND!!!!
He was lucky the back up band was great.Back in those days someone like Eddie or Chuck Berry would just show up with their guitar & amp.alot times they would get stuck with shitty back up bands that where available.Anyway on this show it was great Ed looked great & sounded great vocally& guitar was on time &sounded just like the records..Impressed I am.We Love you ,EDDIE ROCK N ROLL ON..💯..Add on 5/12/22.The guitar player got shafted.You hardly see him.When Dick takes the guitar from the guitar player. & plays a weak version of a instrumental.He should have. Let the guitar player play it.The guitar player regretted teaching dick how to play it.Dick looks to the guitarist & smiles at the guitarist. Like look at me.I don't know how great a guitarist Dick was.when he played that guitar piece it needed alot of work to add feeling.The guitarist almost refused taking the guitar back.If see him he is frustrated.when every one is interviewed the guitarist was nowhere to be found.He was so peeved he had to go smoke a cigarette.Love is the key...
I wonder if these guys ever thought nearly "70 years..." later, people might be watching their performance on a little flat computer on their screen or even phone?
IMHO … Eddie Cochran would really be the only “threat” to Elvis had he lived . He had immense talent , charisma and stage presence !!! he’s a true rock n roller …. The sky would have been the limit for him had he lived !
Great guitar sound. Great song writer. Did his own multitracking. The " Elvis ripoff" comment is unfortunate. No disrespect to Elvis but Elvis was not a songwriter. Cochran was. The Brits hold Cochran in high accord - Bill Haley as well. Here, they're looked at as one hit wonders unfortunately.

I watched him in concert at Taunton the week before he died. He was electrifying and we were all enthralled.
David de Montseret that must have been wonderful i would love to have been there
You witnessed and were a part of history. Something to be proud of.
Closest I can get to that is I was born at St Martin's
Yeah, I'm not surprised ... I never realised Eddie was such a polished live performer such terrific stage presence! I guess these live performances have only appeared because of youtube and other such places otherwise you had to be there. Musical nostalgia and history. Shoot that tiger! 🙂
@@amandamiller304 ,and I, what a nice boy, what a loos
A true rockabilly pioneer ,he influenced so many bands , sorely missed .
Eddie Cochran was the best rock and roll musician of all time. Pure and simple. Died way too young. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
It's time to make a movie about eddie, not a low budgeted movie but a quality film like bohemian, title choice, cherished memories, 3 steps to heaven or summertime blues. It will gonna be a hit like la Bamba, and eddie's music will be re introduce to the new generations

I agree, its way overdue !
I don't there has ever been a good music biopic. Cash, Lewis, Holly or Valens, they didn't do justice to the artists.
@@TheThaggs La Bamba was great
@@alienzufo1125 Was that with Lou Diamond Phillips? That sucked too, imho.

Yeah, looks like a P90 at the neck
And it costs a fortune!😂😂
Joe Brown tells the story that when Eddie toured the UK he showed how he replaced the wound third with a plain second that could be bent more easily.
The sad thing is that most young Americans have never heard of this American Legend called Eddie Cochran!
Why just mention USA? Why not mention the whole world? The whole world needs to know about him.
You're both wrong Eddie Cochran was well known and is still well known yo people from the era he was popular in.

@@michaelcraig9449 Nah...his 'Elvis" imitation looks and vocals are really dated. The 50s are littered with the remains of these guys.
I often keep coming back to this clip, for the simple reason, its the birth of rock n Roll, Eddie was right up there with Little Richard and The king.
Amazing 🙏🙏🥲🙂🥲😊
Oh yes.
With this music and charisma, Eddie would still delight any audience today.
yes with a wide variety of sound of Rock and Roll music
That’s what makes people even more sad thinking about their passing. The music and everything they could have accomplished. RIP EDDIECOCHRAN
Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly are forever frozen in time in the Fifties. I wish they had lived into the Sixties at least to see them change and grow musically. It would have been Something Else!
Now we will never know what could have been. 😢
to see what they would have done with modern effects on the guitar they were both awesome guitar players
Eddie was the coolest! He influenced so many musicians. Best music of all time!
This backing group, except for the Drummer, Gene Riggio, is not the backing group he took on his Midwest tour later in '59. It was Riggio on drums, Dave Shriver on bass, and two others.

Died way to young. This guy was about to really make it big time. He already had some great songs to his credit.
He didn't even make it to the 27 club...
Seriously this dude literally lived in the golden age guitar off pure rock ‘n’ roll!! He was already big!!!
Eddie had real CLASS and he was a real gentlemen and loving young man.❤️❤️👍👍❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
what a talent he was, and what a tragic loss when he died at age 21.
Yes
One of my teenage heroes and he had something ,talent and charisma next to young Elvis one of the best.
Unbelievable, this was 1959! Vocals. Guitar. Looks. Showmanship. Eddie was a cynosure who would have been a huge star. Also, Dick D' Agostin and his band were excellent backing.
Eddie was a great genius,so now he playing music in heaven. Eddie we miss you so much. Love You 😍 ❤️❤️❤️👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
R.I.P Eddie Cochran. Died 17th April 1960 - 63 years ago.
So sad - he had it all - Defo the King of Rock'n'Roll!!
And such a nice guy too xx
This guy Eddie Cochran really was something else ! So talented, and so missed for sure.
Eddie was an outstanding vocalist.
He had a great rock n Roll voice.
Watch the tall "Sax-man" diggin Eddies riffs and Eddie looks at him and almost laughs....raises his spirits. Fantastic stuff.
Eddie was th real deal. His death was a tragic loss for the music world 💔
It is a pleasure just to be able to see and hear such a legend.
Grew up in this Era, Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent, Carl Perkins, the first Rock N Rollers of the 50's when I grew up.
This performance took place four days after Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper, and Ritchie Valens tragically died in a plane crash. Eddie and Buddy were very good friends and Buddy's death hit Eddie very hard. The great performance Eddie does here shows what a consummate professional he was even though he was grieving for his friend.
I never knew there was a whole Eddie Cochran gig. I was raised in the 70s and 80s with Eddie playing. Wish I could of watched this with my Dad
Eddie Cochran is rock and roll music. The guy is a love potion.
Love this! During the late 50s-early 60s guys like Eddie, Carl Perkins, James Burton were my teachers. I wore records out. What a great post this is !
One of my favorites. Heavens knows how far his talent would have taken him. I was in England when he was killed, and it's like it was only yesterday.
☹️☹️☹️☹️🥲
Best rock n roll voice in the league!

I'am listening and Learning What a great Talent Thank you
Thank you for sharing these wonderful moments with us! Kind regards !!
There's no telling where Eddie would have taken R&R on his guitar.
Great stuff!
Great to see this footage... love the. Early USA Rockers.. cheers 🍻 from Oz 👍 it's in the blood born 56..🍻

Fabulous footage thanks for sharing.
So wonderful, all of it.
he had a voice alright, great sounding raspy grit to it
He had class in everything he did.

N'oublions pas Johnny BURNETTE.

drops his pick at 6:59 ,never misses a note :)

Super sax !!!!

George Harrison loved Eddie, in fact they all did, superb player and artist. 👍
Happy fun Music
Awesome!
Still sounds great and fresh!
Exuberant celebration sure beats the hell outta self introspection!
very good!!! bonjour de FRANCE !
Like all great artists Eddie and Buddy Holly both had to die before their genius was recognised. RIP.
Right , almost every great Rock n Roller are dying way to fast.... greetings from germany, have a nice sunday 🙂👋
He was one of the first to show the real blues!
Eddie we miss you ❤
Un visage d ange un sourire craquant voix merveilleuse tu nous manquera toujours

The local Musician's Union used to staff the bands off their list. The same way I got construction jobs since 1978 through Laborers Local 703.

Who knows what heights?

IMHO … Eddie Cochran would really be the only “threat” to Elvis had he lived . He had immense talent , charisma and stage presence !!! he’s a true rock n roller …. The sky would have been the limit for him had he lived !
More incredible this was held in Compton California!!
I wonder how he could perform this was like 5 days after buddy holly and Ritchie valens & the big bopper were killed
Great guitar sound. Great song writer. Did his own multitracking. The " Elvis ripoff" comment is unfortunate. No disrespect to Elvis but Elvis was not a songwriter. Cochran was. The Brits hold Cochran in high accord - Bill Haley as well. Here, they're looked at as one hit wonders unfortunately.
That was hard rock for that time.
LE MEILLEUR
When rock and roll was real music, not shouting f bombs andshowing everybody everything your momma gave you.
