Listening to these albums to celebrate the births of the Stevie Ray Vaughan and Eddie Cochran

I did not realize that two of my musical idols shared the same birthday. One man helped to change the course of modern blues and the other help to create Rock and Roll. Who knows what more they could have done had their lives not been cut short. May you both rest in peace.

Song of the day Lonely by Eddie Cochran

Summertime Blues- Eddie Cochran

Eddie Cochran

Last weekend at an antique store near my cabin,I got a record from Rockabilly star Eddie Cochran.The album is called Summer Time Blues.His career only lasted a few years due to his death in a car crash in England in 1960. Also in the car was Gene Vincent and songwriter Sharon Sheeley they both survived but suffered serious injuries. Eddie Cochran was also from Albert Lea Minnesota RIP Eddie.
