Vintage Rock  |  Vintage Rock Presents Eddie Cochran  


Introducing the new Vintage Rock Presents, Eddie Cochran.

Eddie Cochran was one of the most innovative and influential rock’n’roll musicians of all time. With songs such as Twenty Flight Rock, Summertime Blues, C'mon Everybody and Somethin' Else, he electrified his teenage audience and created a back catalogue that continues to excite and inspire music fans to this day.

Sixty years on from his death, we celebrate the life and career of this rock’n’roll pin-up with a 130-page special. .. read more We look back on his early recordings as one half of The Cochran Brothers, and look at his relationship with fellow innovator Gene Vincent. We also examine his short-lived movie career and take an in-depth look at his first two albums. Elsewhere we talk to superfan Darrel Higham and to Eddie’s guitar hero nephew Bobby Cochran.

From the beginnings of his career to his tragic death to the lasting legacy of his music, this must-have Eddie Cochran tribute is packed with interviews and features about this much-missed rock’n’roller.  read less

Very entertaining

Ideal magazine for those who have an interest in the history of rock Reviewed 12 April 2022

Superb mag for real music fans

Thought the cover feature on The Beach Boys was really interesting. Went back to the roots of the band rather than just the usual features you see about Pet Sounds and Smile etc that are in other music mags. Brilliant magazine for real music lovers. Reviewed 30 November 2016

Superb features on a wide range of artists

Love this mag!! Features lots of my favourite artists from the 50s and 60s as well as up-to-date acts, too. Covers lots of artists from rock'n'roll, rockabilly, vintage soul and R&B. A great read. Reviewed 30 November 2016
