Ask any rockabilly fan to name their top-10 most-influential rockabilly musicians and it's almost a guarantee that the name Eddie Cochran will appear toward the top of the list. As I sit down to write this article it's the 51 anniversary of Cochran's tragic death on April 17, 1960 in a late-night car crash while on tour in England. Eddie Cochran had only scored a few hit singles in his short career, but his influence on the future of rock and roll can not be overestimated.
