About "Blue Suede Shoes"
Blue Suede Shoes: A Rockabilly Session was a televised concert that was taped live at Limehouse Studios in London, England on 21 October 1985. The show featured rock n' roll pioneer Carl Perkins along with friends as guest stars, including former Beatles George Harrison and Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Rosanne Cash, Phantom, Rocker & Slick, and Dave Edmunds (who also served as the concert's musical director). Most of the repertoire performed in the concert consisted of Perkins' classic rockabilly songs from the 1950s.
The concert special was directed by Tom Gutterridge and originally broadcast Channel 4 in the UK on January 1, 1986, and on Cinemax in the US in 1986, with introductory comments from Perkins' friends, contemporaries, and occasional collaborators Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Perkins performed 16 songs with two encores. Perkins and his friends ended the session by singing his most famous song, 30 years after its writing, which brought Perkins to tears. The concert is a memorable highlight of Carl Perkins' later career and has been highly praised by fans for the spirited performances delivered by Perkins and his famous guests. It was the first public performance by George Harrison in more than ten years.
