DVD) [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eCD \u0026amp; DVD (NTSC 0) Set Of The Legendary 1985 UK TV Special Celebrating The 30th Anniversary Of The World-Renowned Track. Featuring Carl Perkins With George Harrison, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Dave Edmunds, Slim Jim Phantom, Lee Rocker, Earl Slick \u0026amp; Rosanne Cash. Written in October 1955 and released in January 1956, \"Blue Suede Shoes\" was an instant classic earning a place in the history books when it became the first million-seller to crossover from the Country chart to the Pop and R\u0026amp;B listings. Swiftly covered by Elvis Presley and later The Beatles, the song remains a Rock'n'Roll anthem. Fitting then that Carl Perkins, the man who wrote and first performed 'Blue Suede Shoes', should be accorded a television special to celebrate it's 30th anniversary. On 21st October 1985 at London's Limehouse Studios a superstar cast of friends and fans joined Carl Perkins to record a TV special celebrating his career and the classic songs that he had recorded during it. Perkins was joined on stage by George Harrison and Eric Clapton along with other stars including Dave Edmunds, Slim Jim Phantom and Lee (Stray Cats) Rocker plus Earl Slick and singer Rosanne Cash, daughter of the legendary Johnny Cash. George Harrison struck up a lasting friendship with Perkins and much of the continued interest in the programme lies in the prominent role played by Harrison. The former Beatle takes lead vocal on several tracks as well as playing guitar and having a great time. The Beatles connection is even stronger in that Harrison is joined by former colleague Ringo Starr with the show representing their first reunion gig since the mid-1970's. To celebrate the 35th anniversary of this unique show, Madfish are releasing the concert both on CD \u0026amp; DVD in one jewel case set featuring liner notes from Sam Szczepanski, who was one of the lucky fans who managed to get a ticket the show. This CD\/DVD captures the whole concert, both as an audio and visual experience with Carl Perkins and the All-Star band performing Perkins' finest songs which also include \"That's Alright Mama\" and \"Whole Lotta Shakin' Going On\", plus the DVD includes short interviews with Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison \u0026amp; Jerry Lee Lewis interviews discussing the importance and influence of Carl Perkins.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Boppin' The Blues\" ( 02:57 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Put Your Cat Clothes On\" ( 03:31 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRingo Starr \"Honey, Don't\" ( 04:06 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, Ringo Starr ; Eric Clapton \"Matchbox\" ( 02:54 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Eric Clapton \"Mean Woman Blues\" ( 03:27 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Turn Around\" ( 03:17 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Rosanne Cash \"Jackson\" ( 03:04 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosanne Cash \"What Kind Of Girl\" ( 02:04 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Harrison \"Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby\" ( 03:26 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, George Harrison ; Dave Edmunds \"Your True Love\" ( 04:18 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise\" ( 02:17 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, George Harrison ; Eric Clapton 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Medley : That's Alright Mama, Blue Moon Of Kentucky, Night Train To Memphis\" ( 05:17 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; George Harrison \"Glad All Over\" ( 02:36 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Eric Clapton \"Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On\" ( 02:30 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Gone, Gone, Gone\" ( 02:38 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Blue Suede Shoes\" ( 03:11 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Harrison \"Blue Suede Shoes\" (Encore) ( 02:54 ) 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Gone, Gone, Gone\" (Encore) ( 00:52 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnny Cash, Roy Orbison ; Jerry Lee Lewis Interviews ( 01:41 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Boppin' The Blues\" ( 02:57 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Put Your Cat Clothes On\" ( 03:31 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRingo Starr \"Honey, Don't\" ( 04:06 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, Ringo Starr ; Eric Clapton \"Matchbox\" ( 02:54 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Eric Clapton \"Mean Woman Blues\" ( 03:27 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Turn Around\" ( 03:17 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Rosanne Cash \"Jackson\" ( 03:04 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosanne Cash \"What Kind Of Girl\" ( 02:04 ) 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Harrison \"Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby\" ( 03:26 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, George Harrison ; Dave Edmunds \"Your True Love\" ( 04:18 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise\" ( 02:17 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins, George Harrison ; Eric Clapton 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Medley : That's Alright Mama, Blue Moon Of Kentucky, Night Train To Memphis\" ( 05:17 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; George Harrison \"Glad All Over\" ( 02:36 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins ; Eric Clapton \"Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On\" ( 02:30 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Gone, Gone, Gone\" ( 02:38 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Blue Suede Shoes\" ( 03:11 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Harrison \"Blue Suede Shoes\" (Encore) ( 02:54 ) 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarl Perkins \"Gone, Gone, Gone\" (Encore) ( 00:52 )\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"837","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50566518997288,"sku":"63655171630","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3772710-2529347.jpg?v=1763986973","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/perkins-carl-friends-blue-suede-shoes-rockabilly-se-cd-63655171630","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
