| This
is Eddie Cochran's biography and an overview of his achievements.
Eddie Cochran was only 21 years old when he died in a tragic
accident while on tour in the United Kingdom. In these biography
pages you can read about his live and music. For a comprehensive
reading about Eddie Cochran check out the In Print page which
lists a few essential books. Dark Lonely Street is an article by
Phil Davies about the circumstances around the accident that took
Eddie's life. The Facts page gathers the hits, the songs he wrote,
the movies he played in, etc. A timeline of Eddie's life is on the
Biography page. 43
years after Eddie's death I was in Chippenham to take some
pictures of the memorial plaque and the site where the fatal
accident happened. You can find the pictures on the Chippenham
page. I was very fortunate to meet the Cochran family in Eddie's
birthplace Albert Lea in June 2004, see the Albert Lea pages. |
