Description:The 1960 tour of the UK by Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran marked a defining moment in British popular culture. Previous visitors such as Bill Haley, Buddy Holly and - very briefly - Jerry Lee Lewis had been treated as variety acts, but now the nation was exposed to raw rock'n'roll by two of the genre's most charismatic artists. At the Liverpool Empire, the Beatles were inspired by their performances. The first generation of British rock guitarists, such as Joe Brown and Big Jim Sullivan, learned so much simply by sharing a stage with Cochran, the most prodigiously talented musician of the rock'n'roll generation. Between them, the angel and the devil, the good-looking, guitar-toting Cochran and the skinny, demonic, black-leather-clad Vincent, defined the enduring images of rock music.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
