I can't belive that I never even heard of the Collins until 2023. The kid on the guitar just smashes all of the 1950's rock n roll guitarists and should have been a headliner.
RIP Lorrie Collins (May 7, 1942 - August 4, 2018), aged 76
And
RIP Larry Collins (October 4, 1944 - January 5, 2024), aged 79
You both will be remembered as legends.
When music was music 🎶 ❤❤❤ rest in peace. U both entertained the world 🗺
Never heard of these kids, they sure needed more better promotion & exposure!
@@robertaguilar2124 tons of rockabilly artists didnt get a lot of airplay because of how the industry treated the genre
you either had to go full rock, pop or country
theboy kid play guitar is truly a rock star
Larry was born for this
Wow .. the freakin ENERGY !!! .. GO Larry!
Just "discovered" the Collins 3 days ago. I am 65 and have never heard of them. I am making up for lost time! The Collins boy's energy, enthusiasm and his sheer joy just make you feel good watching him.
Same here, just discovered them on CZcams three days ago. I'm 71.
58 and same here. I'm from Nashville and thought by now They'd be Houshold names. Incredible!
It's Western Swing. They had lots of hopusehold names playing it. Not Rock.
Lots of people say it's not. BUT, before Rock n Roll, Western Swing was the quickest thing you could dance to.
Bill Haley and the Comets played Western Swing and were adapted in by the Memphis Rock n Rollers.
His sister Laurie is beautiful.
i am stunned that i have never come across such talent....i am 75
Tex Ritter was more progressive than I would have imagined, having a couple of young rockabilly siblings on the show as regulars. Thanks CZcams! I never would have encountered this awesome duo with out your nifty algorithms.
I don’t know about anybody else ,but I long for those simpler times! Jim
Yeah - great times. All the entertainers and ALL the audience were, of course, white. But let that pass.
The boy, Larry, is an incredibly polished performer for being around age 12!
He may have played it earlier and then did the dancing with lip sync Lip sync started in the 1930s
He was 14 here and had been playing live since he was 11. He was a seasoned performer. These were taped live, vocals and guitar, not lip synced.
@@rockinredneck57 Yes, Larry himself said, in later interviews, that all those '50's performances were %100 live.
@@bobsmoth-iv3sp No it didn't. I've been in live studio recording since the 60's and double track layover didn't exist....no lip sync. You must be thinking Millie Vanilli or Janet Jackson.
WHY have I never heard of them? They're great!
You took the words right out of my mouth!
They were very popular in California and now in the Rockabilly Hall of Fame.
Because the music studios didn't like "cowboy" music. Until Buddy Holly and the Crickets made it happen. Hence, The Beatles.
RIP Larry Collins........a truly gifted player and entertainer.
Larry was the show,only started watching these 2 very recently after they poped up on my you tube feed,figured why not watch,well ive since found out Both have passed on,Larry in January, he was such a show man,i read he was like maybe only 11 at this time, such a talent,im hoping hes rocking with the best of them in Heaven❤
Man, her voice during the intro could melt glass.
😃
It melted an old mans heart and I’m not kidding. lol she married him twice her age.
Who'd she marry, and how old was she when she married? Also, the fiddle player's pretty easy on the eyes.
@@TheBrooklynbodine She married the manager of Johnny Cash then. And this because Cash was serious after her and this would‘ve raised a scandals. You can read this all in the Johnny Cash biography by Robert Hilburn. Lorrie was 17 when she married 26 years old Stew Carnall.
@@mariowildner5874 12-16 is the normal age when men find women most attractive, so 17 is fine.
This is pure rock and roll
The kid is a born performer.
Larry's love for his sister shines through 💙
That boy is great
Lorrie is as pretty as a new set of truck tires, and boy can she sing! Brother Larry is smokin' on that gitar as well...
"... pretty as a new set of truck tires ... " - I'm stealing that!
ricky nelson wanted her bad, but i think the mom and dad discouraged it.
This video should be the most wieved of all times. Those kids rocked like crazy!
There were literally hundreds of them all over the south and southwest, particularly Texas...where swing started.
Richtig geil die zwei!!! So viel Talent!! Wie er seine Gitarre bespielt Weltklasse ❤
I've know about them for many years but started to actively listen to them today. I am surprised they were not bigger in the 1950s. RIP Lorrie.
And now Larry.
@gcord21
In my book, at an absolute minimum they deserved to rule the world.
I just heard...I am so sorry to hear about Larry Collins passing... Much love and prayers to family and friends.
(thanks for all the great music you have shared with all of us over the years)
I just hung out with Larry, the kid on the double neck guitar. He's a really nice guy! I'm liking this music too!
Dang, those Collins Kids are hep. Love it.
RIP Larry. I first heard of the Collins Kids just over 40 years ago via a rockabilly compilation album and thought who the hell are they and was amazed the boy Larry was about 10. I then had to search for one if their albums. What a dynamo. Both of them so talented and should've been more well known.
Still not too late folks to get one of their albums to have in your possession.
She's gorgeous
That kid belongs in the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME. Precursor to many of the guitarist of several generations.
Heppest of The Hep is right. Larry and Lorrie Collins will blow you away with their originality and talent. I just recently "discovered" the Collins Kids and have become a huge fan. Got Volumes 1, 2 & 3 of "Collins Kids At Town Hall Party" by Bear Family Records, and those DVD's are absolute treasures. I'm actively looking for more clips all over YT and elsewhere, plus any more DVD's that are available.
Where have these kids been all my life 🎸🤠🤙🏼
A couple of really talented and dynamic kids.
I am looking at the signed autographs of both Lorrie Larry, which I got in 1993 Hemsby in the UK, RIP Lorrie
Man! Rock n roll was in it's infancy here, and yet these two are rocking like some only wish they could today! Way to go
Collins kids. Rip.Laurie.
Wow! That boy wrote "Delta Dawn"
He also wrote You're the reason God made Oklahoma.
@@Eustice2Co wrote with Sandy Pinkard.
No words to praise. Excellent.
I first heard this song covered by King Biscuit Boy. The Collins Kids doing it blew my mind.
Yup, that's where I heard it, too. Slightly different vibe ... !
I saw the Collins kids on Town Hall Party live 2:05 in Compton when I was about 7 yrs old (1957). He was a real inspiration so I have been playing guitar since I was 12.
It was amazing to him, Joe Maphis and Merle Travis all playing on one double neck guitar.
Have you ever seen such energy!!
Larry was 14 here and already a veteran performer. He was a guitar protégé of the King of the Strings, Joe Maphis, who also performed on this show. Larry's guitar is a Mosrite double neck, the second one ever built. Joe Maphis played the first one. If his high energy hurt the act, Tex Ritter would have had him dial it back a bit. This was in 58, and they were competing with early rock and roll acts. They were a very popular act then.
My name is Collins and I approve this act!
That riff... Oh my God!!!!
great resto work thank you RIP Lorrie...2018
Wow, so clear, thanks. ! Happy 76th Birthday this week Lorrie, almost exactly 25 years since the Collins Kids first reunion gig anywhere in the world, and we were there, Hemsby UK in May 1993.
I love her. And brother rockin this is still HEP today!
R.I.P. Larry Collins 1/ 2024
RIP Lorrie Collins
Oh boy, Larry is great guitarist
I love this group they know they could pick that guitar I have they made many years ago call shortening bread I still play it today I just love this group fabulous they are just fabulous
They remind me of Les Paul and Mary Ford singing “How High the Moon”!
Aww let’s rock again now!
They're amazing. Never heard of em but judging around that time Rock n Roll was shamed so badly it cost them a good boost to the big league cause thy are pure rock n roll.
1958 and they rocked more than Elvis or anybody!!!
I've seen this clip many,many times but never as good as this , I don't know man, you must be a magician, thank you so much!!
Wow! Underrated indeed. Thank you!
The birth of Rock n Roll !!! What nostalgia!
But it was 50 years later with "Wayne 'The Train' Hancock" that this tune became a song I HAVE to sing & dance along with (right up there with "Jukebox Jumpin'").
Yes, what a wallflower!
So great to see beautiful Lorrie in HD!
Very attractive and talented kids.
Umm? What?
Found these guys about a year ago. Looking to see what Tex Ritter was like. I grew up on John Ritter and Three's company (Tex is his Dad). Saw Larry and Lorrie and about fell over backwards! I feel like they never got the recognition they deserved. The most amazing siblings I have ever seen perform. Larry is the most talented performer I have ever seen in my life. Watching these performances by these wonderful, talented, sweet people, just makes me wish I had been alive to see it when it was new and fresh. Salute! Lawrence and Lawrencine Collins!
What a Girl!
RIP, Lorrie.
Excellent 😀
I was like 4 years old back then !
Great quality!
Este menino é demais. Estou encantada
Eis aqui o "menino" e a "menina"!
Ele com 62 e ela com 64!!!
Em 2006.

Ларри просто огонь! Жаль, что раньше не знал о нём и его сестре Лорри. Царствие ему небесное. Сколько же в жизни хорошего и интересного прошло мимо нас. Не одобряю нынешнего но и железный занавес не очень желателен.
RIP Larry, the great Rose Maddix playing Steel Guitar here.....
I thankss god that he has given us the opportunity to see such artist and entertainers, i wish that these will born in my country (INDIA).
Stars.
Amazing charisma. Star quality all over him - and her.
RIP, Larry... 😢
Super quel belle époque Merci pour ce partage 🎸🎸🎼🎼😍😍👍
AWESOME.
❤Beide Legende ❤❤R.I.P😢😢😢
Erinnerungen bleiben ❤❤❤❤❤
they play and sing like gods. and are basically unknown.
I have an old LP with the Collins kids doing Walking the Floor Over You. I'm 70 years old and that's been my favorite song throughout my entire life, even though Ernie Tubbs made it famous.
Keep on rockin in heaven Lorrie
RIP Lorrie
Never heard of them. This is fandamntastic.
Wonderfull
I have got THE COLLINS KIDS HOY HOY on a CD
Hoy. That's how the Aussies say hi, explained by an Aussie Karchka Riley. Think I spelled his first name wrong.
All their performances were so marvelous ❤️❤️
Why haven’t we heard more about him. The little guy sure puts older, far more famous musicians to shame. If I had known about him when I was a youngster I would have been inspired to play and perform far sooner than i did.
GORGEOUS 😂😅😢
I was born on that year .
Here after The NY Times obit Sunday 1/14/24. Love these Collins kids!
RIP Larry Collins and big sis Lorrie. Talent wrapped up in young bundles.
Helicopter parents today would have Larry on Ritalin for displaying such energy.
Amazing quality for such an old show!! :-)
Youth is not always wasted on the young.
I first became aware of the Collins Kids in the documentary "The Women In Rockabilly" that can be found here on CZcams . Please watch it. They Collins Kids were under contact by Mitch Miller who never quite understood the talent they had to offer. They were not a top priority act for Mitch who spent most of his time producing his own HiFi singalong albums.
mj7den If Sam Phillips at Sun Records, had signed Larry and Lorrie Collins, this amazing sister-brother duo would have rocketed to superstardom. Mitch Miller at Columbia Records was clueless about the incredible talent and unique act of the Collins Kids.
With all the energy Larry had, I wonder if he ever tripped over his instrument cable or accidentally whacked his guitar into Lorrie's acoustic.
Sounds super cool! Dig it!
Great entertainers!!
Rock and Roll music
shes beautiful!
Good God. I just burned about 300 calories watching Larry perform
R.I.P. Larry
If they’re on American Idol, they would win!
I’m surprised they weren’t more popular, singing rock n roll in the early stage of rock n roll. Funny thing is it was on a country western show.
Just now finding out about these kids how is that there great and ahead of there time
