Our Take

Eddie Cochran's 1957 album is a rock 'n' roll time capsule that will transport you straight back to the heyday of the genre. From the moment the opening track kicks off, you're thrown into a whirlwind of spirited guitar riffs and catchy hooks that will have you bopping along in no time.

Cochran's signature gravelly vocals shine on tracks like "Summertime Blues" and "C'mon Everybody", showcasing his effortless ability to blend attitude and charm into each performance. The raw energy of the recording perfectly captures the essence of the era, making you feel like you're right there in the midst of a 1950s rock 'n' roll frenzy.

The standout track on the album has to be "Twenty Flight Rock", a rollicking number that showcases Cochran's impressive guitar skills and playful lyricism. It's impossible not to get swept up in the sheer joy and exuberance of the music, making this a truly timeless record that still sounds as fresh and exciting today as it did over six decades ago.

Overall, Eddie Cochran's 1957 album is a must-listen for any fan of rock 'n' roll music. It's a fun and quirky trip down memory lane that will leave you tapping your feet and singing along for days on end. So do yourself a favour and give this classic album a spin - you won't regret it!
