 Carl Perkins

The King Of Rockabilly

Sun Records 70th Anniversary

(Sun Records)




You've doubtless already got Carl in your collection. But here, his essential tracks have been remastered. The man had a way of bending notes until the country and blues unified and flowered as nascent and globe-altering rockabilly. One of the giants.

Recommended: "Movie Magg," "Blue Suede Shoes," "Matchbox," "Honey Don't" (alternate version), "Put Your Cat Clothes On," "Boppin' The Blues," "All Mama's Children"

Video: "Movie Magg" (non-LP version)
