Carl Perkins Artist Snapshot:

Rockabilly pioneer Carl Perkins emerged in the 1950s around the same time as Elvis Presley, with a similar blend of country and R&B. He was denied Elvis-level fame due to poor timing, bad breaks, and a relative lack of the sex appeal that aided Presley's career. Nevertheless, Perkins was one of rock & roll's first great auteurs, and his early work was a crucial element of the rockabilly template. His songs were covered by everyone from the Beatles to the King himself, and when he died in 1998 he was eulogized as a giant of rock & roll.

Title Note

Includes liner notes by Mark Marymont.

Along with Scotty Moore (Elvis Presley's guitarist), Carl Perkins is rightfully considered one of rock & roll's first guitar greats. Best known for penning the early rock standard "Blue Suede Shoes" (which Elvis later covered and made famous), Perkins is also noted for being an important influence on such future rock purveyors as the Beatles, specifically George Harrison. The budget-priced BEST OF CARL PERKINS (BLUE SUEDE SHOES: THE ORIGINAL RECORDING) doesn't contain all of Perkins' most renowned songs. It's probably best suited for die-hard fans who may want to round out their Perkins catalogs. Neophytes who want a true introduction to this guitar great should try Rhino Records' ORIGINAL SUN GREATEST HITS.
