I covered this event for television and was talking with Carl a few minutes before he went to the stage to do this set. When he left the press area, every star who was there - Willie, Mellencamp, Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Jackson Brown, John Denver, and the rest - followed him up and stood in the wings watching him rock the house. He tore it up!Happy 83rd Birthday Carl!

Hace 82 años nació Carl Perkins, uno de los pioneros del Rock and Roll. Un estilo combinado de blues y country en su sonido. Rockabilly, se iba a llamar ese género. Perkins tenía el éxito asegurado, pero un accidente menguo su carrera, lo cual marcó el sitial de honor como "rey del rock" a Elvis Presley. Carl Perkins dejó composiciones de un nivel majestuoso en la historia, que muchos han tomado para darle un segundo aire."Ese sonido rockabilly no es tan simple como pensaba que era" 1932-1998
