Little Richard, my friend, the TRUE King of Rock 'n' Roll. Long Live the King!!! ua-cam.com/video/PcJrExewkYA/v-deo.html Without Scotty Moore, Elvis Presley's Sun & early RCA releases would have been nothing. Just my humble opinion...
So many kings! I'm surprised the Americans ever got rid of George III. :) Carl Perkins, surely the undisputed king of rockabilly - except for those who prefer Johnny Burnette, Sonny Burgess, or Charlie Feathers (to name but 3!). Chuck Berry, greatest rock n roll lyricist and for some, the king of rock n roll. Gene Vincent and his Blue Caps, the first on the list when they were all inducted individually in the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. (Gene was inductee #1.) Little Richard, the wildest voice and most theatrical performer in early rock and roll, but best known to the general public today for only for a handful of his hits. Jerry Lee Lewis, the first great wild man of white rock and roll, still alive, but largely forgotten by the public. Buddy Holly, and Eddie Cochran, both great rockers, but also pioneers in developing the music in new directions before their lives were cut short. Sam Philips, without whom so much of it may never have happened. Bill Haley, now chiefly remembered for one single, but the greatest rock n roll dance band leader of all time. Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller, who were the writers behind some of Elvis's biggest hits. The egregious Colonel Parker who managed and manipulated Elvis into a position where he is now known and accepted by many as "the king" although in reality, Elvis was just a damn' good singer with massive stage presence who moved on from rock and roll and became a a lonely and unhappy parody of himself. Elvis is widely accepted as "the king" mainly because we keep being told that he's "the king." Nothing against Elvis, but I agree Little Richard was a greater pioneer. But then, Elvis was only a king. Lemmy is God.
@@mikefule330 it is about time someone get it right ,Elvis was way over rated as he was a Gospel singer an learned from most of the people that you mentioned from watching them at barn dances & clubs ,it is even said in the History of Rockabilly music! Sorry about the much delay but had to chime in ,too many music reactors dont know the story!.. Awesome history check Bruh!..😎💯👍
What rock you been under? Burnett brothers were a couple of years before Vincent , but didn’t have the air play because of their ‘unchristian’ ways. Rock and roll was the Devil’s music, and what they were playing was against God, humanity and all the freedom of expression that exsisted back in the those early days. Damn, if music had stayed that way, instead of rap , condoning killing cops and whoever, this world could have been a much nicer place.
I just discovered these guys. I’ve never heard of them but wow they’re great! I did some research and Johnny Burnette definitely contributed a lot to rockabilly music! Sadly he died in 64 from a boating accident. This album on the original vinyl is very valuable too!
Funny story. I learned about the 'Trio from watching an episode of Pawn Stars where someone was selling this album and the expert talked about how influential they were.
Esquire . 1950. Paul Burleson . He was a good friend of mine . Look up " Rock & Roll Trio . Johnny , Dorcey Brunette & Paul Burleson. Train kept a Rollin ' etc
The connection is Paul Burlison, lead guitar, worked as an electrician at Crown Electric and Dorsey Burnette was an apprentice electrician at Crown. That's where they met Elvis who drove truck and was learning the electrical trade. They were all pioneers, but Elvis took it to the next level. His SUN recordings still give me chills.
TOTALLY agree.🎸 Obviously Elvis was not only the King of RocknRoll, but the King of Rockabilly. R.I.P. Scotty Moore... THE King of Rockabilly AND RocknRoll guitarist.🎸
I love rock and roll and rockabilly is rock and roll but too many seem to not understand that and to only remember Elvis is a one sided love affair there was too many other greats not getting remembered and that's not right including Conway Twitty too whom started at Sun Records
@@user-ym7iz6pg3j - knew many of the old SUN greats and recorded a few of them later in their careers. I don't deny any of their abilities or creativity. More unsung than Conway (Harold Jenkins) Twitty are Warren Smith, Billy Lee Riley, Sonny Burgess, etc. At least Conway got picked up by M-G-M and had some decent hits. Jerry Lee did the best to take the crown from Elvis, but he had to marry Myrna. Not uncommon in the Southern USA, but to the World scandalous. To a man everyone of them recognize the importance of Elvis Presley and acknowledge his impact.
I agree that Elvis Is I'mportabt but he was not the whole world he himself said he was a man so let's keep that in mind as no man is a🌎 and inside this world is other people and Harold Jenkins wrote Rock House and what is the rock and roll hall of fame it's a rock house let's give others credit where there is plenty of room to give it I like Elvis but I don't think he carried the world on his shoulder
Man I'm like 66 young but wen I hear hot rod tunes I still go to my garage n crack open a cold one n jack with my old rods 54belair 64impala 65 impala it's good medicine
I was so surprised to walk into my neighborhood record store in 1999 and find Rocky Burnette and his dad's guitarist Paul (shown in video above) browsing thru the rockabilly record section. I was priviledged to be able to chat with them for about an hour or more. They were supposed to perform in a club across the street but the place had a power outage. I had just watched my RnR Trio videos (The name of Johnny Burnette's trio) the night before! Paul unfortunately passed away a year or so later from cancer.
+Rotis59 i havent seen any videos of burlinson playing with the trio that match the playing on the studio recordings which were likely done by grady martin.
ESTILO de cantar próprio o mesmo para o guitarrista Paul Burlison, um exímio guitarrista que também é único na sua maneira de tocar que com a batida do SLAP do baixo acústico de Dorsey burnette, completa a apoteose do momento. maneco - Porrto Alegre-RS - Brasil.

1950s RocknRoll is my favorite music, and I pretty much swear by the originals, but IMO the 1979? version of Rockabilly Boogie by Robert Gordon, with Chris Spedding on lead guitar is the best version.🎸
Be glad glad you’re born in this generation. You can literally listen to whatever you want with the tap of your finger. If you were actually put in the 1959, you’d want to go back.
The 4 girls dancing sequence is taken from "Don't Knock The Rock', a 1956 movie in which the Bill Haley band performs "Hot Dog Buddy Buddy". It runs over 2 minutes complete and can be found on UA-cam. Outstanding.
@@carllafong4791 Thank you Carl Looking everywhere for those Girls.NO one seems to comments that "Train kept a rollin "was recorded in 1951 3 years before Elvis.
@@davidking9887 The song was recorded by Tiny Bradshaw before Elvis recorded, BUT this Burnette version of the song was recorded in 1956. Presley's first commercial recording was done in July 1954...
Rock-a-billy boogie as a little more swing too it ! Cool Jazzed up Music ! I love the awesome steady swing beat it has !! Elvis was superior Singer at Blues, Rockabilly, Gospel, Country Music......thanks to the Cool Black & White Folks he hung with younger. Elvis had great taste in Music ! He was a nature young talented person at that .....! To bad the bad hardcore booze and bad hardcore drugs destroyed him right in front of our eyes ......???? You could tell he was slowly destroying himself in the end........What ashame !!! I think he missed his Mother big time !!
He was! That great era of rockabilly lasted only a short period and was over 60 years ago, and only a few of the names are widely remembered now, but at the time, they were popular. Also, Johnny Burnette was one of the "big names" who had a second flowering in the late 1970s revival and his records were played a lot around the clubs in the UK. Sadly, he was not alive to see it. Whereas some others from the great generation of rock and rollers died in plane crashes or car crashes, Johnny Burnette was drowned after a boat crash.
THIS WAS FAR AHEAD OF ITS TIME. THIS SONG IN PARTICULAR I WOULD SAY IS WHAT SHAPED ROCK MUSIC AS WE KNOW IT TODAY. I WOULD SAY THIS MUSIC STEMS BACK RIGHT INTO THE LATE 30S. BUT NOBODY HAD RECORDING EQUIPMENT TO RECORD ALL THIS GREAT STUFF. THOSE DANCES DIDN'T COME INTO EXISTENCE OVERNIGHT. THAT FORM OF DANCING PROBABLY GOES BACK A DECADE/DECADES BEFORE THE 50'S MADE ROCKABILLY MUSIC POPULAR.
Johnny Burnette (guitar) had a son Rock in 1953. Dorsey Burnette (bass player) had a son Billy the same year. They wrote the song about the two baby boys. Rock and Billy.
Who would've thought that Johnny would create his own record label (Magic Lamp) and one of the earliest artists to record on it would be Karen Carpenter!

Colin Escott of Showtime Magazine states that during or after his stint with his own trio, Dorsey recorded a demo session with Fabor Robinson (owner of Fabor Records, co-owner of Abbott Records and sometime manager of Johnny Horton and Jim Reeves among others). French researchers Giles Vignal and Marc Alesina place the demo session at the Sun Records Studio in November 1956 and they have Dorsey being backed by Johnny Burnette and Paul Burlison. "Let's Fall In Love" and four other tracks were cut, but all are believed to be lost. On November 24, 1956, Dorsey went to a session at the Fabor Studio in Malibu, California, where he cut four tracks, "The Devil Queen", "Let's Fall In Love", "At A Distance" and "Jungle Magic". These tracks were released as two singles, "Let's Fall in Love/The Devil's Queen" (Abbott 188-45) on November 24, 1956 and "Jungle Magic/At a Distance" (Abbott 190-45) on February 23, 1957. Fabor Robinson offered to place Dorsey on either the Louisiana Hayride or the Town Hall Party (the West Coast's leading country music showcase). After moving to California, Dorsey found work as an electrician to make ends meet and began writing songs in his spare time. Once he had settled down, Dorsey sent for his family. By the fall of 1957, Johnny Burnette was now unemployed and he decided to try his luck on the West Coast. With a friend, Joe Campbell, he hitched a ride in a railroad boxcar out to Los Angeles, where they joined Dorsey. With their past differences forgotten, the brothers attempted to resurrect The Rock and Roll Trio by sending for Paul Burlison. He joined them briefly, but decided to return to Memphis and concentrate on his electrical business. Dorsey continued with his day job as an electrician to pay the family expenses, while he and Johnny continued with their song writing activities in their spare time
1950s rock and roll was REAL. No power chords and distortion and lights and smoke. Good ole playing and fun.
Johnny Burnette Trio has playing with distortion back in 1956, listen the "The Train Kept A-Rollin'" / Honey Hush"
Lead guitarist Paul Burlison did indeed employ distortion, discovered when a tube in his amp was loose.

You do the rockabilly till the break of day
Well, it's a rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie tonight
Well, they kick off their shoes, gettin' ready to bop
They're gonna rockabilly wearin' their socks
You wiggle your hip, feel the thrill
So come on, little baby, do the rockabilly-bill
Well, it's a rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie tonight
Well, there's little ol' suzie, turnin' seventeen
Well, everybody knows her as a rockabilly queen
And there's ol' slim, as quiet as a mouse
He grabs ol' suzie, they'll tear up the house
Well, it's a rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie
A rock, rock, rockabilly boogie tonight

Colin Escott of Showtime Magazine states that during or after his stint with his own trio, Dorsey recorded a demo session with Fabor Robinson (owner of Fabor Records, co-owner of Abbott Records and sometime manager of Johnny Horton and Jim Reeves among others). French researchers Giles Vignal and Marc Alesina place the demo session at the Sun Records Studio in November 1956 and they have Dorsey being backed by Johnny Burnette and Paul Burlison. "Let's Fall In Love" and four other tracks were cut, but all are believed to be lost. On November 24, 1956, Dorsey went to a session at the Fabor Studio in Malibu, California, where he cut four tracks, "The Devil Queen", "Let's Fall In Love", "At A Distance" and "Jungle Magic". These tracks were released as two singles, "Let's Fall in Love/The Devil's Queen" (Abbott 188-45) on November 24, 1956 and "Jungle Magic/At a Distance" (Abbott 190-45) on February 23, 1957. Fabor Robinson offered to place Dorsey on either the Louisiana Hayride or the Town Hall Party (the West Coast's leading country music showcase).
After moving to California, Dorsey found work as an electrician to make ends meet and began writing songs in his spare time. Once he had settled down, Dorsey sent for his family. By the fall of 1957, Johnny Burnette was now unemployed and he decided to try his luck on the West Coast. With a friend, Joe Campbell, he hitched a ride in a railroad boxcar out to Los Angeles, where they joined Dorsey. With their past differences forgotten, the brothers attempted to resurrect The Rock and Roll Trio by sending for Paul Burlison. He joined them briefly, but decided to return to Memphis and concentrate on his electrical business. Dorsey continued with his day job as an electrician to pay the family expenses, while he and Johnny continued with their song writing activities in their spare time
Thanks for the background info on the Burnettes.
