December 1958 Eddie Cochran Hollywood, California unissued / lost Hurry Up (demo) Eddie Cochran unissued / lost 'Hurry Up' is a demo for Ritchie Valens who recorded it in January 1959. Eddie's fiancee Sharon Sheeley had written 'Hurry Up' for Eddie as he was always late. Eddie felt it would be a great song for Ritchie to record.

January 12, 1958 The G - Notes Goldstar Studio - Hollywood, California GUYDEN 2012 Johnny Johnny Johnny Linda, Nancy & Colleen Gino 2:25 Not available on CD Musicians – The Gino sisters (real name: Giancano): vocals - Eddie Cochran: guitar – Unidentified musicans Same song as “Jeannie Jeannie Jeannie”, as Eddie recorded it. (see abow) Release date / first mention: March 1959.

Eddie asked Ricky Page (background singer on many of Eddie’s recordings), composer of this song, to be allowed to record the song and so Eddie's version "Jeannie Jeannie Jeannie" was created on January 12, 1958 and released on January 20, 1958. The original title "Johnny Johnny Johnny" was published in February 1958 by Kay Cee Jones on DOT and as "Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie" by Jimmy Maddin on Imperial. According to Derek Glenister (see Biography for EMI Box Set), both, Jones' and Maddin's version, were recorded a few weeks before Eddies (sic!). Finnis further reports that George Motola played Eddie the Maddin version to arouse his interest. (Accordingly, Eddie would not have changed the title name, however, he may have suggested it). If I understand Ricky Page correctly, the G-Notes track was recorded before the others (with Eddie late 1957/58), but published in early 1959. "J.J.J." does not contain a guitar solo.

Ricky Page remembers: "Eddie Cochran was a very dear friend of ours, Georg and myself, before recording "J,J,J,"... he was hired to play guitar for the G-Notes session on "Johnny, Johnny, Johnny " and fell in love with the song, asked to record it, thus the change to ''Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie". Eddie and I were both on LIBERTY Records at that time." (Quoted after Dik de Heer). "To be honest, you can't hear Eddie and it was a terrible recording." (Quoted after Tapio Vaisanen "Rockinrecords Mailing List" (30.08.2010))

Linda Kealey (form. Gino) remembers on YouTube: “The Gino Sisters - Gone You're Gone”: “I have Eddie Cochran's autograph but don't remember much about meeting him since I was only twelve. (...) In those days the instrumental tracks were laid down first and then the musicians left the studio and the vocal tracks were laid down.”

Bill Beard wrote: "Regarding the G-Notes. They were two sisters named Gino, that's why they called themselves the G-Notes. When I spoke to Ricky, she said that Eddie never played on her sisters' records."

At least it is also possible that Eddie was only involved in demo sessions to 'Johnny Johnny Johnny' in 1957/58 but not in the final recording.
