Sixty years have passed since Eddie Cochran's UK tour. All are invited to follow, contribute to and offer corrections/clarifications to this timeline of the tour which will hopefully include some illustrative links, photographs and soundclips presented in chronological order, updated on each relevant matching date to get a real feel for the tour as it progressed.

We're a teensy bit late getting started, so let's catch up on the timeline so far.

8th January Eddie recorded three songs at Gold Star in Los Angeles- Cut Across Shorty, Cherished Memories and Three Steps to Heaven. Connie Guybo Smith, Sonny Curtis and Jerry Allison accompanied Eddie. These were recorded on Ampex 3 track and beautiful stereo mixes exist of these songs.

10th January Eddie travelled by air to London Heathrow airport, trading the balmy blue skies of California for a bitter grey London in the grip of winter.
