Blue Suede Shoes

“Blue Suede Shoes” – Tribute to Carl Perkins
If Elvis is the father of Rockabilly, Carl Perkins is the Godfather! Carl’s unique writing talent, singing style, and unusual rhythmic guitar give him “one-of-a-kind” status. Truly, I believe there would not be Rockabilly music, as we know it today, without Carl Perkins. Carl set the pace for all of us who followed. Carl was as uniquely talented as he was explosive. Few people remember that Carl Perkins was the first Rockabilly act to sell one million records. “Blue Suede Shoes,” written by Carl Perkins, is his signature recording and the very first million-selling record to come out of the legendary Sam Phillips’ Sun Studio.
