Eddie Was Really A Top Notch Singer, One Of The Best Ever.. Steve

Although recognized popularly as a rocker, his balladry was, in my opinion, every bit as good .

I’ve been past the crash site numerous times and always think about Eddie as I drive past.

[roycampbell]

As someone of that generation
I was a great fan of Eddie coachman

[garyfaught]

Loved Eddie, his style, his looks, his song writing . He was cool. BUT, to compare him (or ANYONE ELSE) to Elvis is simply not fair. No one, before or since, compares to Elvis

I'm 50s years of age and I've been a big fan since the late 70s. My friends were punks and skinheads but i was the rocker of the group. Rip Eddie cochran

Elvis was in the Army in 58 59 60 when Eddie Cochran was getting popular

Gene Vincent did not die in the crash. he suffered a bad leg for the rest of his life and he toured uk in the mid 60's. such a loss. Eddie was a beautiful and great natural talent

You cannot compare Eddie to Elvis. He was a far better musician for starters plus he wrote or arranged a large part of his repertoire.

[royphillips]

What ya gonna do with the old one then ? I thought Elvis was, is and always will be the king of musicality !

[pamelamwilliamson]

Eddie Cochran better than Elvis no offense!+♡ This guy was totally Awesome! & a gentleman!!!***

[MysteryBoy-xt]

Buddy Holly did try to copy Elvis Presley style but here, I can't see that with Eddie Cochran.
As far as I can see, I don't seem to spot anything Elvis like here. Not even the voice.

It's clear to see that Eddie had his own UNIQUE style.
His walk, his body movements, his style of playing Guitar and even his voice are nothing like any other musician of that or, any other era.

Eddie Cochran was also very Handsome.

[BoZeek-zlcv]

Eddie Cochran was good, but as a singer no one can compare to the vocal ability
Elvis Presley had. There is a reason why Elvis Presley is the King!

[DanielCocagne-epih]

Vivre vite mourir jeune et laisser une belle image rock n roll

[juancarloscabreramenendez]

No singer from the 50s can vocally compare to Elvis. Furthermore, the king evolved musically, encompassing more styles, not just rock&roll. Elvis was getting older and rock was basically music for young people, if you wanted to survive the trends you had to evolve.

Para cerrar en el 58 Litle Richar se convierte en cristiano siguiendo la fe de nuestro señor ...

[sorshiaemms]

Eddie was a great guitarist with many great instrumental tunes as well as a great voice wrote some of his own songs as well

[garyfaught]

We also lost the oft forgotten R &B great, Chuck Willis in the spring of 1958 at the age of 30.
