  • @moviemagg - i disagree. This is fine stuff! Good recording, great vocal, dig the piano, nice drums & fuzzy guitar. Recorded at Bradley Studios/Quonset Hut...where Gene Vincent & Blue Caps and Johnny Burnette Trio laid down the finest stuff of their careers! Owen B. and the A-list Nashville Cats were good company to be amongst. This track kind of reminds me of some classic Dale Hawkins recordings (Tornado, Yea-Yea (Class Cutter), Little Pig, Suzie-Q).

  • That stand up bass is pale blue.....

    I just looked in my dictionary under; ' are you shitting me cool instruments', and there was a picture of this very same bass.

  • never heard this tune. Thanks

  • To me thsi man was the epitomy of the Rockabilly sound a wwill never be bettered. RIP Carl... you were a legend then and always will be.

  • The reason Carl Perkins fell into Elvis' shadow was due to a car accident that sidelined Carl for a while. Almost messed up his guitar playing. Elvis recorded Blue Suede Shoes and the rest is history. These are facts that can be checked.

  • @moviemagg I heard the reason his carrer died is because he was supposed to be on Ed Sullivan but had a cold, so they clled Elvis to appear. And the rest is History.

  • @moviemagg Have you forgotten that Jerry Lee Lewis played piano at Sun and elsewhere with no ill effects?

  • If Elvis was the King, Then Carl Perkin's was the Prince of rock!!

  • You may keep most of the Sunrecordings of Carl. Jive after Five, and all the covers of legendary Rockclassics on Columbia are the best we know from Carl!
