SUNDAY IN FRANCE WITH GENE




I was rummaging through YouTube looking for clips of Eddie Cochran when I found this little trove of live Gene Vincent from the early 1960s. This is dynamite stuff, but kinda hardcore and mildly demented, and will probably make more sense if you’ve had previous exposure to Gene and the bop that just won’t stop.
