#GreatAlbums1950s - #CarlPerkins – The Dance Album (1957). Sidelined after a 1956 car crash, Perkins watched from a hospital bed as “Blue Suede Shoes” topped the pop/ country/ R&B charts, only to be overshadowed by Elvis’s cover version on LP and TV. Still, Perkins made a mark with songs like “Honey Don’t,” “Everybody’s Trying to Be My Baby” and “Matchbox” (all covered by the Beatles) -- epitomizing rockabilly as an enduring form beyond the fickleness of the charts. #GreatRockAlbums, #Rockabilly

"Matchbox" was recorded as a #rockabilly song by Carl Perkins in December 1956 and by fellow #SunRecords performer, #JerryLeeLewis – who played piano on the original track – in 1958. #SamPhillips.

I'm posting this one for two reason:
1; It's Carl Perkins, 'nuff said.
2: The sheer joy on George Harrison's and Dave Edmund's faces throughout. Also George's solo. There the added bonus of Eric Clapton looking very pissed off. Plus Ringo being, well, Ringo -

Vanaf de jaren 80 en de split van Wings werkt hij enkel nog solo en op albums van andere artiesten onder eigen naam, oa met #StevieWonder, zijn idool #CarlPerkins en met #MichaelJackson.
In 1984 scoort hij een grote hit met wat we noemen #TheFrogSong, en produceert hij de animatiefilm die er bij hoort #RupertAndTheFrogSong een opluchting na de flop "Give My Regards to Broad Street"
In 1985 sluit hij het benefietconcert #LiveAid af met de song #LetItBe van

#PaulMcCartney
18 juni 1942
In 1957 leert Paul via een vriend #JohnLennon kennen en stapt in diens band #TheQuarrymen, vanaf dan start een geschiedenis met de popmuziek nadat ze hun naam veranderd hebben in #TheBeatles.
De band waarin Paul de bassist werd bestond van 1960 tot 1970 en verlegde grenzen in de popmuziek, in het begin met covers van onder andere #CarlPerkins maar gaandeweg met enkel eigen songmateriaal. Ze zullen de best verkopende band ooit. Na de

Carl Perkins - Roll Over Beethoven (1957)
Het leuke van een cover is het feit dat de artiest zijn eigen draai aan het origineel kan geven.
Carl Perkins geeft zo het typische Chuck Berry nummer een "Perkins-touch".
Carl's cover kwam nooit op single uit en verscheen pas in 1975 op een verzamelalbum.

Tonight in 1955 — #OzarkJubilee debuted on ABC.
It was the first network TV show to feature #CountryMusic performers like #JohnnyCash, #PatsyCline and #CarlPerkins.

DID YOU KNOW? When Elvis Presley was recording his cover of Carl Perkins’ “Blue Suede Shoes” he insisted on singing “You can burn my house, steal my car, drink my pee-pee from an old fruit jar.” It wasn’t until Perkins showed up with a blackjack in hand threatening #Presley that the king finally acquiesced and sang the correct lyrics! BELIEVE IT…OR NOT!
