I love Elvis and I could never slag him, but Eddie was a more 'technically' good artist, in terms of guitar playing and writing, for sure. Eddie was equally good looking and I think had he lived he would have had a phenomenal impact on music to day. How nice to listen to the man speak-he sounds about 60 in his speaking voice though!
this guy shoud've been bigger than Elvis and would've been, had he lived longer.....he wrote his own songs, played guitar (unlike Elvis, who used it for a prop)and was more tuned into teenage angst. It's a real shame that we didn't get to see him develop all his talents......I doubt he would've ended up in Vegas with a white jump suit on in the 70s doing karate kicks and mumbling his early hits
thanks for this--down here in Aussie, we never knew much about Eddie except that we loved C'mon evertbody and 20 flt rock and summ. blues--so this is a rare treat hearin' him talk.
@mirlimirli thank you :)

I saw one of Eddie's last concerts in London. He was the most dynamic of the rock acts at the time. He put on a fabulous show. Great musician too.

12,000 at a concert in 1957.
Amazing
Practice all I want. Aint never, ever, gonna be a
another Eddie, or Buddy, or even John Lennon.
Born to it.....not made.
I think John Lennon was in that Tony Sheridan band that
keeps showing up on the posters.
Thank you Eddie Cochrane.
