Search - Carl Perkins :: Live at Gilley's

Less a rock & roll legend than the happy leader of a working band in these early-'80s shows, Carl Perkins mixes hopping versions of his own classics ("Blue Suede Shoes," "Honey Don't," "Matchbox," "Dixie Fried") with other standards. An in-your-face recording of genially jumping performances, this volume of the Live at Gilley's series shows that while Perkins might have lost the edge of his younger self, his voice, guitar, and spirit were still hot and ready to go. --Rickey Wright
