Gene Vincent, también The Catman (El Hombre Gato); el gato salvaje de Norfolk. Gene Vincent fue, junto a Eddie Cochran, uno de los rockeros más macarras del universo del Rock & Roll. Las niñas se derretían por el guaperas de Elvis, pero los Rockers idolatraban a Vincent y a Cochran. Gene Vincent fue pionero en usar el cuero negro como elemento distintivo de su imagen, lo que también le valió el apodo de Príncipe Negro. Otros, por su parte, se referían a él como un Hamlet de cuero negro, por su imagen de atormentado, algo que estaba muy de moda en el cine de aquella época con tipos como James Dean o Marlon Brando. Y tenía motivos para atormentarse, porque lo cierto es que a Gene Vincent la vida le fue dando una hostia tras otra hasta el final.Pero para llegar al final hay que empezar por el principio: Eugene Vincent Craddock nace el 11 de febrero de 1935 en Norfolk (Virginia), en el seno de una familia pobre. Su primer contacto con la música lo efectúa a través del Gospel, aunque enseguida aumenta su interés por los sonidos negros cuando descubre el Blues, según una amigo suyo, a los 12 años. El joven Gene iba paseando por Norfolk cuando vio a un cantante callejero aporreando un bidón y cantando algo así como lula lula lula (muchos estudiosos del Rock han creído ver aquí el origen de Be-bop-a-lula, su canción más conocida).Nuestro protagonista se enrola voluntario en la marina a los 17 años, en busca de emociones y de ver mundo, y surca durante cuatro años todos los mares del planeta. Compra su primera guitarra en Nápoles, con la que se entretiene en sus ratos libres. Pronto da pequeños conciertos a sus compañeros, tocando temas Country y Blues. En 1955 es destinado a la base de Norfolk como mensajero en moto. Un día, es embestido por una mujer al volante de un Chrysler, causándole una rotura de fémur en la pierna izquierda que le manda al hospital. En los largos meses de convalecencia mata el rato practicando con la guitarra. A finales de año es licenciado y obtiene una pensión vitalicia. Este dato es importante porque Gene, al tener la vida resuelta en lo económico, se decide a intentar abrirse camino en la música. Nuestro héroe acude a los estudios de la Emi
