Elvis first recorded in 1953 - then in July of 1954 - he did That's All Right Mama - And Blue moon of Ky. - Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash came in 1955 - Gene came along in 1955 - but didn't start being known until 1956- Billy Haley and The Comets - Were the first BIG known Nation act - with Number one hits. Elvis didn't get USA number til 1956 with Heartbreak Hotel but in the south he was huge for years before that.- They ALL got it going- Regadless. The FIRST King of RnR was Billy Haley tho

"You're no judge of music. You don't read it. You don't talk it or you don't live it. I do" - Gene Vincent . GO GENE!!! The interviewer is a D-bag.

@georsand Just for the record. Vincent was one of the first to pick on the new sound. Capitol released his first single in APRIL 1956! Right after Elvis came out on TV in January 56´. Vincent was Capitols answer to RCA´s Elvis Presley, Burnette was with CORAL. By then Orbison was still crawling around Memphis, recording at SUN, trying to get with the new beat. He flopped, because he was a balladeer from the start, no rocker. Little Richard is a boogie man, aint no rockabilly.

Blimey! Gene would have had an easier interview with Jeremy Paxman. "Question Time" has nothing on this. Well played Gene Vincent.
Very interesting - exactly when in 1971 was this recorded , given he died in Oct ?
