I grew up on classic rock - Zeppelin, Beatles, Stones, Clapton, Who, etc. They made some great music. But looking back in retrospect, nobody can compete with the originators. Carl, Elvis, Chuck, Richard, Buddy, Jerry Lee - what those musicians accomplished is almost impossible to comprehend from 70 years later - but they invented it all. Carl Perkins is an amazing singer, songwriter and guitarist.
Oh yeah, same here. If you ever read about the classic rock staples they generally always mention the same players you just did verbatim. That's how it is, music certainly is an inspirational thing
This man... Well, Elvis did what he did...but... this man...the fact check...there wouldn't be The Beatles without this man...So...Elvis might be the king of Rock & Roll...but this man is most definitely the King of the Rockabilly!!!! Hail to King Carl!!!
And carl is able to do solo not like Elvis Who only played by chords When You listen Elvis singing the reals guitarists are scotty moore and James burton..Who really play the technical part of the guitar in historique songs riff solo and during this time elvis moove his body. ... Are there really musicians among elvis fans.?
R I P Carl , You had us “Rocking & Bopping” when we young and You still are ROCKIN” US NOW !!! A buddy of mine said he heard thunder the other day but i told him...Nope , THAT’S CARL !!!!!!
@@user-rr2eo7gb7z Perkins is way better than Elvis. I don't care what anyone says. Carl is way more authentic than Elvis who didn't even write his own shit most of the time and also very rarely played good leads in his younger years.
"Even Elvis had his idols. Here's one of them." Elvis admired his work because Elvis had great taste in music, but Carl basically switched from country (like "Movie Magg" and "Turn Around") to rock and roll on his records because of the influence of Elvis on him.
+Joseph Scott You're exactly right. I also couldn't help but notice another poster at the top of the page omitted Elvis from his 'list' of people on Sun Records who "upset the establishment". Whether he likes it or not, it's a 'given' that Elvis should top that list. In fact, Elvis put Sun Records on the map!
Questa e' la musica che mi ha fatto innamorare dell' America, dall' Italia. Durante la guerra fredda. Ero un bambino. E mi piace ancora oggi a quasi 55 anni.
The "original" rock & roll guru. Yes, Carl certainly changed the way music is played in USA. Carl, Jerry Lee, Roy Orbison, J Cash, these are the Sun Records guys who upset the establishment. Amazing musician and guitar player. We luv him. mos60
I've read that he was in a serious car accident that put him in the hospital for months just as he was getting started. He wrote Blue Swade Shoes and while he was recuperating Elvis went and recorded it first.
Sam Phillips said that Carl Perkins was the most talented of all the great artists who came out of Sun records. That includes the likes of Elvis, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and even BB King. That’s pretty high praise from someone who should know
Yes, sure, that's why Elvis triumphed until the 70s and Perkins was just an old glory from the 50s that no one remembered anymore. Sam Phillips let the king escape but could not find a replacement and it upset him.
Согласен .поздний Пиркенс смотрелся очень респектабельного и сексуально , как исполнителя можно слушать и смотреть вечно , рассуждения на эту тему не уместны.
WELL STATED, JOHN.......Carl could sit in a chair and not say a thing and would still make today’s “singers” look like beginner rejects. WE MISS YOU CARL !!

I was lucky enough to meet Carl several times after concerts in the UK. He was one of the nicest guys you could hope to meet as well as being a fabulous performer.
The man that inspired the Beatles to have a go in a band. No Carl no Beatles. Elvis was fake compared to Carl Perkins. Cheers Carl we owe you big time! (still you done well in Copyright. Where you still boppin' when Beatles Anthologies came out?).
John Lennon's Quarrymen predated the Beatles and it was Lonnie Donegan's Skiffle craze that inspired them. Your comment 'No Carl, no Beatles' is nonsense.
We can see a real guitarist who is able to do a solo with his guitar ...not like elvis. Did you ever see elvis doing intro or solo with his guitar......?

Totalmente de acuerdo todos los que nombras de los principios, de los orígenes serán los mejores
He was so gifted and extremely humble to be as great as he truly was. How refreshing that is!
'Matchbox' was like Carl Perkins' signature song. Absolutely brilliant.
I'd say Blue Suede Shoes is his signature song
subg88 I I ilove carlperkinssomuchlcouldeathim
@@subg8858 Elvis stole it sadly
I'd argue Boppin the Blues is superior to both of those songs, though

The one and only Mr Carl Perkins......that's Rock n Roll
CARL WAS ONE OF THE TRUELY AUTHENTIC GREATS!
Yup. Elvis was fake compared to Carl Perkins.
Carl is king of rockabilly no doubt at all love the music boss man r i p
The man talent singer, guitar player and the composer of many fine tunes. Yes sir one of America's finest. RIP Carl. God Bless big guy.
Elvis MISSED to record this one also although difficult to improve Carl's !!!!
A true O R I G I N A L .....!!!

The Beatles loved this handsome man and became close friends. They knew a rocker when they saw one.

Yes real guitarist he doesn t need to have james burton or scotty moore...to do solo or intro with a guitar...you know what i mean...
Even Elvis had his idols. Here's one of them.

Elvis and Carl great friends
Great singer and great composer, one of the best of his generation
What a great writer and performer-the best
Carl one of the best, if not the best ! And seems such a great, modest man 😊RIP
Великий, неподражаемый Carl Perkins ! Отлично !!!
Got to see Carl in concert in Orange County, Ca and never had heard "Matchbox" before. I was transfixed!
Great performance by Carl and the boys! I also enjoy seeing the woman in the audience when she realizes she's on camera!
Music can heal better than pills. A great beat to this song.
YOU said IT!!
The King of Rockabilly is Carl !! it's not me who says this is johnny...Cash.
One of the pioneers one of the best of all time I could listen to him all night n day
THANK YOU - ROCK AND ROLL - AMÉRICA - AMERICANOS...

He was doing the rock n roll version of Blue Moon of Kentucky since the 40s that Elvis made famous too. Elvis just beat him into the studio.
Wow ! Its does't get any better !

the King of rock and roll i love Great music
Rock'n'Roll...just great!!!
So Great!!!!!!!!!!
How was this gentleman overlooked as one of the very best of the 50s?
I've read that he was in a serious car accident that put him in the hospital for months just as he was getting started. He wrote Blue Swade Shoes and while he was recuperating Elvis went and recorded it first.
Carl rocks!

@@juancarloscabreramenendez7628 Perkins was by far the better musician. If you do not know this then you need to wake up and smell some java.
@@juancarloscabreramenendez7628
Talented doesn't always equate with successful.
Mr. Perkins was a singer, songwriter, and guitarist! Talented indeed! ☮️🖖🏽
I wish I could have met him.
Un grand pionnier lui aussi. Quels chefs d œuvre. Ca est du rock à billy
Love it!!!!!
Fender stratocaster ! The sound ! Vintage
гениальный автор и исполнитель. к 1985 году достиг совершенства и его внешний вид. )
Согласен .поздний Пиркенс смотрелся очень респектабельного и сексуально , как исполнителя можно слушать и смотреть вечно , рассуждения на эту тему не уместны.
I’ll take Carl Perkins over Elvis hands down any day!!!!
It’s no coincidence Elvis wanted to always imitate The True King Of Rock & Roll…
Caramba! Esse Cara era fera no Rock!
Gotta love it...only one Carl Perkins...he taught em all..........
One of the better back up bands I have seen perform with Carl.
super Carl Perkins
Sacret Carl Perkins paix à son âme!!!! 😇🤠😎
He was so so great. 👍👍👍👍🎸
vintage !! la legende 😁😁😁
AMAZING
King of rockabilly ❤
Love it !
Рок 🎸 ролл твист рокобилли буги вуги шейк навсегда здорово 👍

EASY...NOBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WELL STATED, JOHN.......Carl could sit in a chair and not say a thing and would still make today’s “singers” look like beginner rejects. WE MISS YOU CARL !!

Carl perkins!!!!!!!! :D
One off the Best........✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️😎😎😎😎
Superrrrrr
The man himself r i p boss
amazing hairpiece!!
La légende
You can see who influenced George Harrison's guitar work when Carl does his solos.
Yup. Even the way he holds & looks at the guitar are the same. Uncanny.
Man if I would have met that guy
I was lucky enough to meet Carl several times after concerts in the UK. He was one of the nicest guys you could hope to meet as well as being a fabulous performer.
The real King .
Grenat Carl....Rip
❤❤❤
I also like the beatles version sung by Ringo
He shreds the 🎸
BOPPIN CAT
Carl Perkins influenced guitarists like Eric Clapton and it showed in the way Eric played for years
Carl.
Carl had some foot tappers played with Elvis and McCartney got to watch the beatles revcord some songs.rip Carl.
And a Jerry Clower bonus!!
Wow it almost seemed boring until he starts the guitar leads. Of all the Sun (white) stable he's one of the small handful that truly kill it on guitar
super
🎸🎶🎵
He was goodk when I saw him
🤩🤩
MAESTROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A+
Let's talk about the band's clothes...
Ledgend 🎉
2022.and he had me tapping my foot.sounded great.

@@Wotsitorlabart those are Paul's words so I think it was a legit statement
His Strat sounds like a Tele!!!??
No shit
Denjean88 YES SHIT BUDDY
We can see a real guitarist who is able to do a solo with his guitar ...not like elvis.
Did you ever see elvis doing intro or solo with his guitar......?
Trouble Elvis song
Elvis would occasionally intro songs on the guitar, but I don't think he ever played any solos!
Elvis was a rhythm guitarist, which is a fancy way of saying he could fuck around all he wanted without anyone hearing his mistakes
Layton Richards one of the nicest men I've ever known
Stop it Carl.He was a bad ass
Was Boppin the Blues the flip side of Matchbox?
