Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session LP

This is the soundtrack to a 1985 London TV special that reunited rockabilly pioneer Carl Perkins, who wrote "Blue Suede Shoes" at Sun Records in 1955, with famous admirers: George Harrison, in his first public performance in over a decade, plus Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, and Rosanne Cash, with Dave Edmunds as musical director. Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, and Jerry Lee Lewis handled the introductions. The set sticks to Perkins's own 1950s hits, "Blue Suede Shoes" included, the song that made him the first Sun Records artist to sell a million copies.
