The Classic Carl Perkins
(5-CD LP-sized box set with 24-page book) Other companies have Carl Perkins sets, but no one else has all the Sun recordings (complete - with some previously unissued) as well as his Columbia recordings from 1958-1962, and everything he cut for Decca between 1963 and 1965. We start in 1954 with the early rockabilly sound of Honky Tonk Gal, then the early country singles, and then Blue Suede Shoes and those classic Sun rockabilly tracks. We have Your True Love at its original tempo and sped-up for single release, and we have newly discovered alternate takes. Then we have all the early Columbia recordings like Where The Rio De Rosa Flows, Jive After Five, Pink Pedal Pushers, and Pointed Toe Shoes, and finally we have the Decca sides from Nashville and London, like Big Bad Blues, Lonely Heart, and Monkey Shine. The first and last word on early Carl Perkins. Classic indeed!
