Heath, aka Reverend Horton Heat, saw bassist Jimbo Wallace belt out Eddie Cochran’s “Twenty Flight Rock” in a Texas club and was hooked. A rockabilly union commenced that has never wavered.

Eddie Cochran was a 1950s rock star most known for his hits “Summertime Blues,” “Somethin’ Else,” “Twenty Flight Rock,” and “C’Mon Everybody.” He died in a car accident in 1960.
