1958 single by Eddie Cochran

"C'mon Everybody" is a 1958 song by Eddie Cochran and Jerry Capehart, originally released as a B-side.^[2][3]

Background

When Cochran recorded his lead vocal for the song, he also created an alternate version of the song called "Let's Get Together".

The only change to the lyrics was exactly that: the phrase "Let's get together" in place of "C'mon everybody". This alternate version was eventually released on a compilation album in the 1960s.
