Eddie Cochran was one of the great heroes of my teenage years.
often wondered why I was already listening to music that was played before my parents' time. There's only one answer: everything that came after was crap. I think that's true :) Who cares .... C'mon Everybody

"Blue Jean" is a song written and recorded by the English singer-songwriter #DavidBowie for his sixteenth studio album #Tonight (1984). One of only two tracks on the album to be written entirely by Bowie, it was released as a single ahead of the album and charted in the United States, peaking at No. 8, becoming his 5th and last top 10 hit with no features. The song is loosely inspired by #EddieCochran.

Back to the early days of Ted Tocks Covers.

Eddie Cochran died tragically, 65 years ago today.

ā€œI’m gonna take two weeks, gonna have a vacation
I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nation
Well, I called my Congressman and he said quote
"I'd like to help you son, but you're too young to vote"
