• This quintessential collector’s edition includes Cochran’s most famous and essential albums for the Liberty label, consisting of his debut album ‘Singin’ to My Baby’ (1957) and the posthumous ‘Eddie Cochran - 12 of His Biggest Hits’ (1960). These two masterpieces helped define the exact nature of rock & roll.

• Hoodoo have also added 9 bonus tracks from the same period. Highlights include the original hit recordings “C’mon Everybody”, “Summertime Blues”, “Somethin’ Else”, “Sittin’ in the Balcony”, and the edgy “Boll Weevil Song”, which walks a tightrope between rockabilly and country-pop without ever slipping off.

• One of rock & roll’s great stars, a fine songwriter and singer, whose brash, fat guitar sound helped lay the groundwork for the power chord. He was also an innovator in the studio, using overdubbing at a time when that practice was barely known on rock recordings. He tragically died in a car accident in Chippenham, England at the tender age of 21.

• Personnel : Eddie Cochran, vocals & guitar, plus: Sonny Curtis, Perry Botkin (guitar), Conny “Guybo” Smith (bass), Ray Johnson (piano), Earl Palmer (drums), Plas Johnson, Mike Henderson (saxophone), The Johnny Mann Chorus (backing vocals), among others. Recorded in Hollywood (California), between 1957 and 1960.

• Total Time: 64:53 mins. - 30 tracks - also includes: 16-page booklet, rare photos, vintage visual memorabilia & detailed liner notes.
