Eddie Cochran - Sittin' in the Balcony

[@MikeBlitzMag]

One of the most perfect records ever made by one of rock and roll's absolute masters. He is greatly, greatly missed.

[@kathycantrellbrown]

Eddie a wonderful singer he will be missed, and all these videos are great thanks for posting.

[@davidallahgod3217]

Eddie would have been the king of of rock and roll if he never died early on in his age I am 40 years of age with some music knowledge

[@claudeflorentin]

Super ta vidéo j'adore Eddie Cochran et ce n'est pas de mon époque Good

[@Elvislover1978]

Great footage. Thanks so much for sharing. Wish there was more of Eddie out there on film. Wonderful talent and very good looking. What a loss. Wish he was still with us today. Very tragic.

[@brownies4you]

WOW! Now this is an oldie....I don't even remember this one by Eddie....sweet work with the reverb to sell a pop record. Also, love those cat-eyeglasses...what's weird is that nowadays I've seen plenty of young women wearing glasses very, very similar to that style. Ten years from now they'll see their old photos of themselves and say, "Whoa! Look at my glasses....so tiny and slitty...it's a miracle I could see properly!"

[@johnneeexus8276]

Thank you for Eddie Cochran's great music

[@boerborn]

great music. Eddie had the best hair in rock n roll.

[@Jim4979]

Super cool Eddie!

[@maarit40]

I LOVE EDDIE COCHRAN :) :)

[@ritared236]

Eddie was an angel on earth...

[@ritared236]

he lives on through his fans. Otherwise he would have been forgotten a long time ago. This is a unique case in the history.

[@paulkosik5474]

A very under rated artist along with Gene Vincent-both more popular in England than here in the USA-RIP both-Paul was here-07-23-16.

Purdy sure if he sat next to me held my hand like that i would pass out!!!! holy hell he was a perfect man R.I.P Eddie its 51st anniversary of his passng today

[@ProductTestingClub]

Check out the Cochran boys before he went solo when country music was very close to rock.

[@ritared236]

@rockakitty1993 Eddie Cochran forever!

[@ritared236]

He had that something special...

[@1ED2DD]

@neverbeen2graceland If there was ever a song that took me back to the 7th grade this one is it and also learning how to dance too.

[@TasteTheRad1um]

That girl looks like she's thinking, "Ewww go away, creeper!" I woulda been hamming it up if that was me! Eddie was just plain adorable.

[@fernandomaron87]

I guess she's shy, it was a big deal to appear on television like that. I think she's freaking out on inside but is trying to keep cool to not ruin Eddie's number.

[@ritared236]

& here too

[@ritared236]

yes, really curious It's possible that it was his own idea, Eddie had such creative ideas to promote his career.

[@VintageLady1980]

Thanks so much for sharing this. Eddie is too hot! I just LOVE that hair! :D What was up with that lady? My god...how could she not be happy about being touched by him? Prude! lol!

[@ritared236]

In those early days of TV, things were live and the kids were just afraid they might do something bad.

[@rolandjohansson2714]

Most or all in US have no clue about Eddie or Gene and that's a crying shame as what they did and how many musicians they influenced, esp in Europe, beginning with The Beatles and many more. One of the few US Rockers I know that was heavily influenced by Eddie was Jimi Hendrix. K, he was not my cup of tea except a couple of songs BUT that man wanted Eddie's "Nervous Breakdown" played at his funeral. He got it. When I was visiting my cousins in MN (Minneapolis) 2006 I wanted to go down to Albert Lea (Eddie was born there in Oct, 1938) to check the museum where they had some Eddie stuff, his black leather pants, silver vest, red/black checkerd shirt & black shoes from NME Poll Winners Concert in UK, 1960. My cousine is a wiz coming to computers, but she wanted to check up this small town. How hard can that be? I mean, just Google it. Eh, she came back after a while, when I had breakfast, and said, like she was ashamed: "I couldn't find the town of Albert Lee at the border to IA" Ha Ha...I told her it spelled Albert Lea. We really had a good laugh - I, a guy from an alien country, namely Sweden knew how to spell that city in MN, and tell her the short version of Eddie, and she had no clue. It was damn crazy. But she learnt as later, without me saying anything we went down to Clear Lake, last gig of Buddy Holly, Ritchie & Jape Richardson aka The Big Bopper. They died Feb 3, 1959 in that air crash. Anyway, my cousin Lois also took me to that place were the accident that killed them all, included pilot Roger Peterso (only 21 years old) It was really something she made for me. BUT one gotta wake up people. Thanks letting me rant. ;O)

[@ritared236]

@neverbeen2graceland YES, they didn't expect the opposite, lip-synching was the common practice in those days

[@ShireGeordie]

You mean miming!

[@lorrainedalu9344]

You can say that again !

[@thomasritchie5668]

Wonder where that gitfiddle is now. Never heard a sound like that on any guitar. Lotsa people would like to have that fiddle man.

[@Diogenes1360]

Crazy, an Alien world complete with odd eyewear and echo sounds re-verberating, planet Claire, seems to be closely connected.

[@kylecrazyford]

Does anyone know the guitar chords/tabs for this song, it's so amazing.

[@whirlbirdy]

I think so.

[@ginger1959able]

The 17th of April is the 50th anniversary of Eddies death remember and play him and Gene forever VERY LOUD>

[@davidamurdoch]

i'll hold your hand... i'll kiss you too.

[@raphaelhernandez4088]

Return to Macon county line!

[@RockabillyDelilah]

@ritared236 I know...it's been 60 years... too bad :/

[@ritared236]

@RockabillyDelilah Probably no one remembers them in 50 years from now

[@GeorgeSwift-qj1ik]

Those girls are so nervous sitting next to him.

[@mikeystrafford]

@eltwentynine Give him my sincere love next time you visit Mikey xx

[@Wolfhoundersful]

I'm just a-sittin' in the balcony Just a watchin' the movie Or maybe it's a symphony, I wouldn't know I don't care about the symphonies Just the cymbals and the timpanis Just a-sittin' in the balcony on the very last row I'll hold your hand and I'll kiss you too The feature's over, but we're not through Just a-sittin' the balcony Holdin' hands in the balcony Just a-sittin' in the balcony on the very last row We may stop lovin' to watch Bugs Bunny But he can't take the place of my honey Just a-sittin' in the balcony Just a-smoochin' in the balcony Just a-sittin' in the balcony on the very last row Just a-huggin' and a-kissin' my baby on the very last row

[@ritared236]

say the truth, those eyeglasses have a lot of personality

[@neverbeen2graceland]

lol, hey.... where's his guitar and mic, didnt anyone attending this show feel ripped off, not rippin on the great eddie, jst not sure if people were jst more accepting of lip syncing back then

[@RockabillyDelilah]

Please kill me. That man makes me feel dizzy with his eyes, voice and acts and songs. Miley Curys, Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber and even Lady Gaga are NOTHING compared to him!

[@angeleyes11966]

Boy the girls on either side must have been dead or somethin.
