Eddie Cochran died in a car crash on a
country road in the early sixty’s . The legacy of his guitar lived
on . His taxi he was in hit a lamp post outside Chippenham Wiltshire
. One of the first police officers at the crash site . Was a young
Dave Dee later off sixty’s chart topping band Dave Dee Dozy Beaky
Mick and Titch. Cochran was rushed to a hospital in Bath where he
later died . The young copper Dee took Cochran’s guitar back to to
the police station . He practised on the guitar for 2 weeks until it
was officially claimed back . This short time with Cochran’s guitar
inspired the young copper to pack in the police force to pursue a
career in music .
Dave Dee |
Early in the Tour a young fan who had
blagged his way back stage . Helping Cochran’s band pack away their
gear. He had proudly carried the same guitar to Cochran’s car and
handed it to him . That fan carrying guitar was a young Marc Bolan.
Obviously getting the same vibes from the powerful guitar . Sadly
after huge success Bolans fate was to be the same as Cochran’s . He
too was involved in a fatal car crash . The difference being he was in a
private car it hit a tree not a lamp post . But in both cases they were not the drivers.of the cars.
