5 out of 5 stars Perky Perkins sides in fabulous fidelity.......2003-01-29

Much better rockabilly than the comparatively refined stuff Elvis recorded for the same label.  As a guitarist, Perkins' technique fell somewhere between Link Wray and Les Paul, with more Wray than Paul on these early tracks.  But his stuff rocks a lot harder and truer than so much else that is labeled "rockabilly," which is no surprise, considering the fact that, by now, virtually every country record made between 1950 and 1955 has been stuck on a "rockabilly" comp at one time or another.  Forget the bit about the Delmore Brothers being rockabilly, and let your ears behold the real thing, here.  Tracks to focus on: "Matchbox" (yes, the old blues song), "All Mama's Children," "Lend Me Your Comb" (the same song the Beatles recorded for Decca), "Dixie Fried," "Right String," and the fumble-fingered "That's Right" (Carl's answer to H. Wolf's "Forty-Four"?)  Perkins' technique improved, but his art didn't.  These are his greatest moments, and you'll be glad you listened to them.  Buy this!!

                  While his groundbreaking 1956 Sun recording of "Blue Suede Shoes" helped rock & roll get off the ground, a car crash that injured Perkins and his brother Jay that year prevented the guitarist from cashing as heavily as he should have. By 1958 Perkins, like most of the early Sun gang, had moved to another label--in his case, Columbia, where fellow Sun pioneer Johnny Cash had also found a home. Trying to recreate the atmosphere of his early records, Perkins came up with footwear-themed items such as "Pink Pedal Pushers" and "Pointed Toed Shoes," but the best tracks of this retrospective are more wide-angled fare such as "Going to Memphis," "Restless," and "Big Bad Blues." --Billy Altman
