Rockabilly Johnny Carroll - Rockin' Maybelle

[melkiemelkie]

ugly bad impersonator

[bobluman4]

@melkiemelkie no.

[melkiemelkie]

@bobluman4 are you blind, he is so doing Elvis and it's NOT working. So UNnatural.

Ugly also.

[bobluman4]

@melkiemelkie he is not doing Elvis he is being a TYPICAL 1950's rock and roll singer which all pretty much sounded like Elvis LOL but i do agree on the ugly part

[melkiemelkie]

@bobluman4 That typical R&R singer is based on Elvis. Elvis started this kind of performance.

[bobluman4]

@melkiemelkie no bill hayley chuck berry and little richard did ,elvis just coped and added his own style 

[melkiemelkie]

@bobluman4 This is NO Bill, no Chuck and certainly no Richard. This a pure and bad Elvis impersonator.

[bobluman4]

@melkiemelkie sign.....you said elvis started this it was the real rock and rollers bill and chuck and little Richard not elvis , elvis just coped

[melkiemelkie]

@bobluman4 No i said Elvis started THIS KIND OF PERFORMANCE. Read!

[bobluman4]

@melkiemelkie bill hayley did actually ,Elvis just made it better

[bobluman4]

@bobluman4 besides i dont care this is pure trash he is not an impersonater this is what most 1950's rockers were like after elvis ..

[bobluman4]

@bobluman4 besides im kinda over it ,this sounds like shit

[elvisbycarlos]

So good.

[jaromir1942]

Nothing special.Very bad copy of Elvis.Jaromír 1942

[wins151]

It sounds a bit like R&R but not as good they make L Richie style sounds and a lot of eratict dancing for no reason i don't think with need this if we got R&R which sounds cool but Rockabilly sounds crap name for music thank god this crap is dead and never got a good foot hold on the market because they just wanted to make out like it was something diffrent and it was just a cheap copy no wonder EP never done any tunes from this crap style music he only covered good music.

[1950sRockabilly]

@wins151 Are you saying that Elvis newer recorded Rockabilly?

[wins151]

@1950sRockabilly Yes i was then but since then i got to understand that Elvis done some Rockabilly music so i think. I was a bit harsh then i just think R&R is better music and that's why this never got as big out the two styles but yes E P did do some R Billy music.

[brynbobhicksville]

@wins151 ..Man you dont know wot the FK you are talking about!! Elvis started playing this style of music then went on to record crap,dross film tracks. Rockabilly got more style and sound in its little finger than the so called Rock n Roll. Obviously you have never heard any decent Rockabilly so just stick to listening to your Elvis film soundtrack albums eh? Jerk.

[bobluman4]

@brynbobhicksville wins151 is strange.....

[CommanderRZ]

He ran the Cellar in Ft. Worth......When I met him at a band audition he was packing to 45 Automatics..... cool dude.

[MrRockaelvis]

una cosa es copiar a elvis osea imitarlo.

otra cosa es parecerse a elvis .

asi que Johnny carroll es autentico que tenga un parecido a elvis es coincidencia...

bola de ignorantes pendejos .i.

[eknatas]

IM IN HEAVEN!!

[deuce2go]

Rumor has it that Ricky Nelson is on the drums.

[BEATNIKCASS]

@deuce2go ------looks more like his brother david

[sloroll01]

@deuce2go Looks like David Nelson, Ricky's brother.

[Shoknifeman]

@deuce2go No WAY, deffinately not him... nor his brother... just a sort-of-look-alike

[MarcoAG100]

[Jeenkaaaa]

Love this song ;)

[squirrelnutcased]

Compare his hair in the beginning of the video to his hair at the end. I swear, in every video I have seen of Johnny Carroll it looks like he has a ferret in his pants!

Long live Rockabilly

[wfd57fatman]

Hey squirrelnutcased, would your comment have anything to do with your YouTube name? LOL! I'm happy to see young folks taking interest in Rockabilly! Checked out a video of yours... keep it up, great job! You got the sound and look down like a blast from the past!

[Oldskoolmusiclvr62]

great rockabilly indeed,truly 50's classic real & raw as it gets & it does'nt get any better.

[3fingerguitar]

baby baby baby yeah

[ffairlane57]

The Hot Rocks.

[maydom04]

First class rockabilly, all enthusiasm, no posturing or wondering what it's all about..

[renejote]

Johnny Carroll is good. Search in toutube DISCO 45 and VIVA EL ROCK AND ROLL (Manuel Vargas) and you will see an honoring from Chile to the best music of all times.

[wfd57fatman]

This is the fellow that Elvis copied.

[justicejayant]

He has copied Elvis, This guy is after 1956, where Elvis is from 1954. Elvis was live in 1956, see heartbreak hotel video, you will know, this vid is years after 1956.

[wfd57fatman]

Maybe so, maybe so... but this guy should have been born later to front the Who! Yes, Elvis was one interesting fellow, great to know you take interest in his little known sides!

[justicejayant]

I find this guy interesting as well, Keep enjoying good music.

[Rnb5104]

Actually it comes from a 1957 film called Rock Baby Rock It". Most of Carrol's hits, however, were from 1956 including "Rock & Roll Ruby", "Wild Wild Women" and "Hot Rock".

[geiston]

In the 50' everybody copy everybody....

Some time the copy is better than the former song. Listen to to Gene Vincent's Baby blue and Elvis Presley's Heartbreak Hotel.

And what about the Eddie Cochran's Blue suede shoes compared with the C Perking's original version ?

Don't matter who was the first. They are all stars of rock'n'roll !

[justicejayant]

Agreed with the whole.

[Fritztoons]

fully agree. Even today every "musician" copy another ...

Who is the lead guitar player ov J.C.? He´s /was great!

[geiston]

Sorry but I don't know .... Maybe some one would be able to answer to your question.

[LeoBullterrier]

Fark thats shocking its actually that terrible we like it a lot.

[ChristerDahlback]
