Must have been sort of weird to see a little kid playing a double neck electric guitar back then.

the Collins Kids are literally at the foundation of Rock- a- Billy, and considering Larry's age and ability, showmanship..holy crap! they are ICONS!

roscoe008, you could always purchase the Collins Kids on cd. Amazon probably has used copies for pretty cheap.

Many, many times over the years I've called oldies stations requesting The Kids and never, never are they played. The jerks follow the top twenty list as if minefields exist beyond it. Thank God for this medium. I seldom listen to oldies radio anymore.

Oh how do I agree!!! There isn't anything out today that can hold a candle to these kids---and they don't appear to have any substance abuse problems which seems almost impossible in this day and age.

@roscoe008 Ha ha ha those jerks are terrified of losing their jobs and those radio station managers are imbeciles for doing this era dirty.

Fine example of what was once very common to California: live, local  rock-a-billy and country music on t.v. And a fine example of what is missing from 'country music' and 'oldies' radio programming. The Europeans know better; I wish American media programmers did too.

There are probably more rockabilly bands outside the US than inside today.

We love Eddie, Gene, Buddy, Hal, Sleepy, the Kids , Don, Johhny. You nsame it. they are played by bands every day here in Euorope.

Tomorrow they have annocunced a live segment on national television from a rockabilly rave her in Denmark.
