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.

For me they were one of the best rockabilly bands.

Esto era Heavy Metal en los 50's. Una bestia Johnny! Rockabilly salvaje!

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!

I love listening to Johnny Burnette's music.

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.

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.

Elvis grew up in the same neighbourhood as these guys. He once asked to join their band but wasn't considered dangerous enough! The Burnette brothers loved to fight- in the middle of a show they would throw their instruments down and join in on a battle on the dance floor. I LOVE Elvis but apparently the Burnettes didn't think he fit in at the time.

I seriously doubt that Elvis ever asked the Burnettes to join their band or anyone else's band, for that matter. As far as I can tell, he never sang with anyone else until he hooked up with Scotty Moore and Bill Black at Sun. What is your source for this story? Besides, Elvis was a singer and you only have room for one singer in a band so why would he even ask them? It makes no sense at all.

@michaelcraig9449

Exactly..I think Steve is correct. Elvis was a truck driver and studied to be an electrician at night school. I doubt he had much time to get in a lot of bands before this. He did music as a side project, a hobby, before he went into Sun Studios.

The devil sucks. This is awesome music, nothing to do with the devil. . Basically, rock and roll was partially created buy the oppression, regimentation, and boredom of society then. Also the fear of getting blasted in a nuclear war with the Soviets. "We might not be here tomorrow, so we are going to rock out tonight". Rock and Roll was freedom music! Society was the dangerous thing.. this music was setting people free from all the sickness of society.

Bullshit. Elvis was friendly with Johnny Burnet who grew up in the same town but attended a different high school. But that is as far as their relations went. Elvis was a star by the time he was 19 years old and he never sang with the Burnetts or was "scared" of them. Where do you get this ignorant nonsense from? What's your source?

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.
