Seems sad to me that no one, to this point, has made a bio pic of his life and times.

Re: Eddie Cochran passed away 56 years ago today
Let's bump this two years old topic.
58 years ago today. And this year would have seen Eddie's 80th. birthday. He was gone at 21. Time flies.

59 years ago today.
This is the obituary published by "The Billboard". This same issue also featured a full one page memorial paid for by Liberty Records, but I can't upload it right now :

From a BBC 'Arena' documentary broadcast in 1982, Peter Morgan, former chairman of the Eddie Cochran Fan Club, explains how Eddie died:

Thank you, Colin. Very sad day. There should be a second opportunity for some things in life.

Re: Eddie Cochran passed away 59 years ago today
This is a fantastic version. The master is hard to beat, a true classic, but this version is great.
There's also a little-known version of the master with less, or no, overdubs. I don't think it's available on YouTube and it has been released only in one CD that I know of :
