hey blair, didn't realize there's more footage of Eddie performing live circulating around, apart from your 2 great vids? same venue, but what's up with a different footage of C'mon Everybody? (I like this version better, what a groovy bass intro sound, but also a few fuck-ups by the piano guy)

The missing one I'm really curious about is There's a Star Spangled Banner Waving #2 (The Ballad of Francis Gary Powers) by Red River Dave. I'll bet it's something special . . .

"He did 'C'mon Everybody' twice, a common practice back in those days."
Gotcha. As en encore, perhaps?
Anyhow, that interview was pretty gay. Actually, I hate all interviews from that period, especially the moronic interviewers. I mean, it's 7 february 1959, Buddy died 4 days earlier, for God's sake say a few words about the man.

Without actually looking it up, I'm guessing the songs by Americans like Johnny Mathis and Fats Domino were in the U.S. charts in 1959. Marty Robbins' El Paso was, of course, a huge hit in the U.S.
