Color Of Vinyl Subject To Change Without Notice / Call To Confirm Colored Copies Are Still Available

Carl Perkins' "Blue Suede Shoes" released on Sam Phillips' Sun label in 1955 became a milestone in rock & roll history as the first rockabilly record to make the national Top 10, as well as being the first to make the pop, country and R&B charts and sell over a million copies. As well as being a highly successful songwriter, Perkins also wrote hits for the likes of Johnny Cash, Patsy Cline and The Judds. He was also a phenomenal guitarist whose playing style came to epitomize rock & roll and inspired the likes of George Harrison, Eric Clapton, and Dave Edmunds. 

Newly-remastered from the original Sun tapes and pressed on audiophile-quality colored 10-inch vinyl with definitive career-spanning sleeve notes by Sun Records authority Adam Komorowski. This fifth release in the Sun Rockabilly Legends Series has been personally overseen by Sun Entertainment Corporation president John Singleton in Nashville and Charly Records founder Jean-Luc Young and continues the long relationship between the companies begun by Shelby Singleton and Young almost 50 years ago.
