Carl Perkins "That's alright mama"

In 1987, British independent television broadcast ''Love Me Tender,'' an all-star tribute to Elvis Presley, two days before the 10th anniversary of the singer's death. The program, taped before an invited audience of 400 in Nottingham, featured such artists as Boy George, Roger Daltrey, Robert Plant, Kim Wilde, Carl Perkins and Duane Eddy performing Elvis songs.

That was NOT Carl Perkins' song...it was Arthur Crudup's song...This was Elvis's first big hit and what is regarded as the song that started Rock 'n Roll.

Everyone remembers Elvis, and Jerry Lee few remember what an influence Carl Perkins was in those days.

Carl rips this one up in his usual style...love this version!
