Leave it to indefatigable archivists Bear Family to put together the quintessential Eddie Cochran collection. This eight-disc box includes everything the rockabilly king recorded under his own name as well as some of his session guitar work with Wynn Stewart, Gene Vincent, and others. As if that wasn't enough, there are also demos, outtakes, interviews, and live material. The whole thing comes with a hardcover book, not just a mere booklet, putting the cherry on top of what's surely an irresistible package for hardcore Cochranites.
