    A) You = The uncoolest guy that ever lived.
    B) Eddie Cochran = The coolest guy that ever lived.

    Ergo, if A is true, as you have already proven, then so is B.

    I never met Eddie. I wish I had the opportunity, but so what! I never met you either, nor do I want to. His influence, directly and indirectly, is still seen today. Eddie is one of the true, true greats of popular music. The fact that I, who wasn’t “even ******* born”, recognises that is a testament to his greatness.

    He looks a little like Elvis in this scene

    BBLogo27: Eddie’s guitar is an orange-colored Gretsch Chet Atkins Hollowbody Model 6120. He modified it slightly (replaced the neck pickup with a Gibson pickup and removed the gold from the pickguard making it clear). Gretsch offers a tribute model based on Eddie’s famous Gretsch guitar.

  11. BBLogo27 Says:

    does anybody know what kind of guitar that is? i keep thinking that its a Chet Atkins country gentleman but its not

    This is the $hit……..Rock in its true form

  16. smoke117 Says:

    **** Elvis. He didn’t write songs, he could barely play his guitar, and he didn’t write lyrics. He was just a singer…what we would call a pop singer now. Eddie Cochran is the real deal. Elvis has always been tremendously overrated as an ‘artists’. He’s just a pop star before that phrase was ever coined and that’s a FACT.

    Comparing eddie anyone to a Elvis Presley is a laugh of the century! You have a great sense of humour my friend…Im amused!
    By the way do your homework and quit trying to sound so peeved caus yes Elvis didnt have to write his own music …He could have if he had the time…he was busy being king! where are those who did…stupid remark really. Get Facts not jealousy..
    All these eddie came and got lost in the flory of the king!

  25. Scorcho44 Says:
