Artist: Carl Perkins

Song titles: Blue Suede Shoes/ Honey Don’t!


Label: Sun 234

Condition: VG

 

Notes: Carl Lee Perkins (April 9, 1932 – January 19, 1998) was an American singer-songwriter who recorded most notably at the Sun Studio, in Memphis, beginning in 1954. Amongst his best-known songs are "Blue Suede Shoes", "Matchbox" and "Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby".

According to Charlie Daniels, "Carl Perkins' songs personified the rockabilly era, and Carl Perkins' sound personifies the rockabilly sound more so than anybody involved in it, because he never changed."Perkins's songs were recorded by artists (and friends) as influential as Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Cash and Eric Clapton which further established his place in the history of popular music. Paul McCartney claimed that "if there were no Carl Perkins, there would be no Beatles."

Called "the King of Rockabilly", he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Rockabilly Hall of Fame, the Memphis Music Hall of Fame, and the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. He also received a Grammy Hall of Fame Award.

 


All records are play graded on a modern professional turntable, using a brand new Stanton 2.7 mil stylus, using the standard Goldmine rock grading system. NM, near mint, VG+, excellent, VG some wear, VG-, more pronounced wear

Typical of the well made 78s of the 1950s, these almost always play better than they look
