Jackie Lee Cochran earned his place as one of Rockabilly's true pioneers during the 1950s, and Rockabilly Legend proves that his songwriting talent remained undiminished decades later. Recorded for the legendary Rollin' Rock label, this superb album showcases Cochran's unmistakable guitar style, distinctive vocals and gift for writing authentic Rockabilly songs.
Originally released as his second Rollin' Rock album, the record is made up almost entirely of Cochran's own compositions, including That Gal's Wicked, They Oughta Call You Miss Heartbreak, The Lovin' I Crave, Dance Doll and Boogie Woogie Man Gonna Getcha. Rooted firmly in traditional Rockabilly while sounding fresh and full of character, these recordings demonstrate why Jackie Lee Cochran remained such a respected figure on the international Rock 'n' Roll scene.
An essential LP for fans of classic Rockabilly, Rockabilly Legend captures a genuine original still writing, singing and playing with the conviction that made the music so exciting in the first place.
