Eddie Cochran(see also best songs 422) was born Ray Edward Cochran October 3,1938,in Albert Lea,Minnesota,U.S.,he was only 21 years old when he was killed in a car crash on April 17,1960.The taxi he was travelling in lost control and crashed in to a lamppost,no other vehicle was involved.At the moment of impact Cochran who was seated in the centre of the backseat threw himself over his fiancee Sharon Sheeley to shield her,he was thrown out of the car when a rear passenger door opened in the collisions force,he died from severe head injuries.
During his lifetime he only released one Album called ‘Singin’ to My Baby’ in 1957,but after his death the remainder of his music has been released on many compilations including his posthumous UK Number 1 single ‘Three Steps to Heaven.’ In 1988 following the use of ‘C’mon Everybody’ in a Levi’s Jeans commercial the song once again became a hit.
‘C’mon Everybody’ was co-written by Cochran and his manager Jerry Capehart(1928-1998,) they also teamed up to write ‘Summertime Blues.’
