Re: Eddie Cochran vs Gene Vincent
Tough one, but I ultimately went with Eddie. Gene did embodied the rockabilly rebel a bit more. Given more time though, I think Eddie (along with Buddy Holly) would have changed the face of music in their time, much more so.
Plus, Gene looses a point for "Be Bop A Lula". Try as I might, I just can't like that song!

Re: Eddie Cochran vs Gene Vincent
It is a tough one, but I went with Gene. He has a much larger body of work, and some really great tunes. I choose to ignore everything that he did in the 60's and 70's, and with those not counted he is one of the greats. If Eddie had a few more years, I probably would've chosen him.
