If your brother won't rock then your sister will

I've had a song from Dan's Rock & Roll mix (http://danschwartzblog.com/post/192889087/rock-roll) stuck in my head for maybe two months now. Well overdue for posting here. (Wo, that makes me feel old - Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Cochran - tells me that Eddie Cochran died at the tender age of 21! Also of note is the fact that Dave Dee of Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick, and Titch, learned to play guitar on the guitar of Eddie Cochran's that was impounded after his death by automobile accident).

It somehow makes me think of a 1950s Ramones, I guess it is Rock & Roll after all so shouldn't surprise me so much. Consequently I am drawn to the melodic similarities between C'mon Everybody and I Wanna Be Sedated.

Eddie Cochran - C'mon Everybody (buy it)

The Ramones - I Wanna Be Sedated (buy it)
