Bobby Cochran's Rock And Roll Forever Show
Bobby Cochran – Guitar Legend, Producer, and Showman
Bobby Cochran—lead guitarist, singer, writer, and producer—was influenced early on by his uncle, rock icon Eddie Cochran (Summertime Blues). On July 1, 2017, both Bobby and Eddie were inducted into the International Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
Determined to master the guitar, Bobby quickly rose to prominence, working with major acts including Steppenwolf, The Flying Burrito Brothers, and Leon Russell. He later teamed up with Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), Billy Cobham (Mahavishnu Orchestra), Alphonso Johnson (Weather Report, Santana), Kenny Gradney (Little Feat), and Dave Garland (Righteous Brothers) to form Bobby and the Midnites, releasing music on Columbia and Arista Records.
Bobby also co-founded Burrito Deluxe with Sneaky Pete Kleinow (Flying Burrito Bros.) and Garth Hudson (The Band). His work spans motion pictures, television, and records. As a producer, Bobby helmed several of Adrian Legg’s albums, two of which—Guitar for Mortals and Mrs. Crowe’s Blue Waltz—won Guitar Player Magazine’s “Best Acoustic Guitar Album of the Year.”
Beyond performing and producing, Bobby has taught Master Classes across Europe, Japan, Mexico, and the U.S., and has designed and developed custom guitars, amps, and effects.
Critical Acclaim
Bobby’s playing has drawn comparisons to legends like Eric Clapton, Duane Allman, Jeff Beck, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Jimi Hendrix. Critics and peers describe his work as:
- “Exhilarating”
- “World-Class Blues”
- “Virtuoso guitarist”
- “A lyrical touch, like a bird singing”
- “One of the 12 best guitarists in the country”
Even George Benson once remarked: “You, me, and Chet should have done an album together!”
