Jackie Lee Cochran Jackie Lee Cochran - Rocks (CD)

This CD includes his explosive ’50s rockers recorded for Decca, Viv, Sims, and Jaguar – among them classics like Riverside Jump, Hip Shakin’ Mama, Mama Don’t You Think I Know, and Georgia Lee Brown. With “Jackie Lee Cochran Rocks,” Bear Family Records presents a career-spanning collection that traces his journey from the early days in Dallas to his triumphant return during the rockabilly revival of the 1970s and ’80s.

Also featured are his powerful Rollin’ Rock recordings for Ronny Weiser’s label – proof that even decades after his first hits, Cochran still delivered with passion and punch. His blend of raw energy, rhythmic drive, and heartfelt vocals made him a fan favorite on both sides of the Atlantic.

From his dramatic early shows on the “Big D Jamboree,” complete with a giant black cat stage prop and glowing red eyes, to his later European performances that sent crowds into a frenzy, Jackie Lee Cochran embodied the true spirit of rockabilly – wild, emotional, and real.
