Carl Perkins: Here's the man to set you patting your blue suedes
Maureen Cleave, The Evening Standard, 6 June 1964
CARL PERKINS has a place of his own at the very beginning of the rock 'n' roll story. On January 1, 1956, he recorded a song called 'Blue Suede Shoes', his own composition. In it he sang that his love could burn his house, steal his car, drink his liquor from an old fruit jar, but on no account was she to step on his blue suede shoes.
