Carl Perkins - Birth of Rock'n'Roll


"Taped in September of 1985 this was used in the tv special "Class of 55 - A Rock'n'Roll Homecoming", that was filmed mostly on sacred Rock'n'Roll ground: the famous Sun studio and the American Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
In this clip Carl Perkins talks about writing "Blue Suede Shoes" and sings the self-penned "Birth of Rock'n'Roll". It's also on the album "Class of 55".
The video has never been released, wich is a shame, and I bet there is so much more material in the vaults to make a nice dvd for the fans. "
