Carl listened to me play once and after the set we spoke. All he wanted to talk about was my guitar playing. It was just two guitar players talking as equals. What a humble and classy man.
Ive watched hours of Carl Perkins vids here and its simply amazing to me how pure and even timbred his voice remained into relatively old age.He could still put that rockabilly break into his voice even at this age.Not to mention a real musician an innovator and a masterpiece of a person.
Can anyone imagine todays "So Called Stars" Praising & Giving Credit To Contemporary Stars. As Carl Perkins is Here.. Great star himself & STILL admit he had nothing but admiration for Elvis. Diferent Breed of Stars Then !! Truely learnt there trade & humble with it : Never to be Replaced "TRUE STARS & NOW LEGENDS"
Carl once said he didn't know what Eric Clapton meant when he said Carl was one of his biggest influences. If you listen to the singing intonations when EC sings, you'll DEFINITELY hear Carl Perkins singing.

all I can say is "amen" to the previous comments. Carl Perkins was a great musician, and more importantly, a great man.
