CARL PERKINS
Black and white publicity photograph of Carl Perkins playing a
guitar.
Photograph signed: "My 'Love'/Carl Perkins/86". B/w, 8x10
overall, image 7x9 (one surface). Singer/songwriter Carl Perkins (1932-1998) had
a No. 1 hit with "Blue Suede Shoes" in 1956. In a tragic twist of
fate, Carl and his brother were seriously injured in an auto accident while
on their way to appear on television shows in New York City (The Perry Como
Show on Saturday night and The Ed Sullivan Show on Sunday evening).
While in traction, Perkins watched Elvis Presley perform his hit on Sullivan's
variety show. While his own career never regained its momentum, Perkins
continued to record and write songs for other stars, including Johnny
Cash, Patsy Cline and the Beatles, and his guitar style was highly influential.
Before his death from throat cancer, he saw himself elevated to "living legend"
status and elected to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Fine
condition.
