- Carl Perkins with Brian Setzer - Hits Medley from Buddy Holly Tribute (1988 PBS). From my Sunday Night Hall of Fame Show tapes and my VHS Buddy Holly collection:
This video features a performance by Carl Perkins that was taped for the 1988 PBS special: “Buddy Holly and The Crickets - A Tribute”
As always, Perkins looked and sounded fantastic on this show as he sings a couple of his legendary hits: “Matchbox” and then Brian Setzer joined him on stage for his classic “Blue Suede Shoes”.
Buddy Holly and the Crickets became one of my favorites in 1957 when I first heard “That’ll Be The Day” on my radio. I started writing, producing and hosting tributes to Buddy, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper as early as 1969 on WEEX - AM 1230 in Easton, Pa. That was the tenth anniversary of the plane crash and coincided with the Coral album release “Buddy Holly - Giant”. At first I called the special tribute show “Three Star Special”, as influenced by a 1959 hit song “The Three Stars” by Tommy Dee. After Don McLean’s dedication of “American Pie” to Buddy, I started calling the show “The Day the Music Died”. My tribute shows continued throughout my broadcast radio career in the Lehigh Valley, PA and Northwest New Jersey area. The last time my five-hour special aired was February 3, 1999 on WODE - Oldies 99.9.
To Recap: This video features a segment from the 1988 PBS special: “Buddy Holly and The Crickets - A Tribute”. The video and audio track have been restored from a VHS tape that I recorded off the air in 1988 as broadcast by WLVT-TV, PBS Channel 39 of the Lehigh Valley, PA.
The Sunday Night Hall of Fame Show was broadcast from 1980 to 1992 on WAEB - AM 790 and WKAP - AM 1320. My show returned between 1999 and August 2001 on WODE “ Oldies 99.9”. All stations were located in the Allentown - Bethlehem - Easton, PA area, AKA: The Lehigh Valley. - Hudba

A-freaking-mazing
Carl, the most talented of them all. Believe a very kind hearted human person. Love his all-round meaner.!!
2 LEGEND's Right here. I grew up listening to Brian Setzer and The Cat's. Take it back to Carl Perkin's.... Almost 70 Yr's of Guitar String Bender's TOGETHER...
Carl is an excellent dancer too! We can tell by his lil’ shimmying and shaking back and forth with his knees bent just a little 🔥🔥🔥 Ah Carl - we know you can & it doesn’t matter how old you are !!!
Carl Perkins Was Every Bit As Talented As Elvis -If He Hadn't Been In That Car Wreck Early In His Career ,Who Knows How Far He Might Have Gone!
Love this old rock n roll
Stray Cat's yes 👍🏼🎸🤘🏼 thankyou for sharing 🤘🏼🎸👍🏼
Thanks for watching!
Brian Setzer, Carl Perkins heck Yeah!! Dancing music 💃!!
Loved how Kris K., mentioned Sun Records studio on Beale Street in Memphis, TN, I’ve visited so much fun & history there!
Fabulous performance by the legendary Carl Perkins, a great man and musician, thank you for posting this classic gem!!
That just swings. Magic.
The real king of rock and roll......❤ missed
Elvis a repri la chanson quand Carl perkins a eu sont accident . Ça a rapporté à Carl des grosses rentrées d'argent. Carl en a été éternelement reconnaissant a Elvis . j'ai vu Carl Perkins a l Élysée Montmartre en 1995 Carl en a parlé il adorait Elvis .
Elvis était un gars super sympat .
@@marcdelente2456Thank you for this history, I had no idea Carl had been in a bad car accident. Yes, Elvis was very generous, often without acknowledgment (like he, liked it). A giving soul. You were very lucky to see Carl Live so cool!! ❤
Carl perkins was one if the true kings of rock and roll he combined rockabilly country and rock ! so much tatlent oyta memphis in the 50/60's how is it presleys called the king i think not
Carl, the best !
Carl ruled...!

How old would Carl have been here? A very youthful performance.
Thanks for these brilliant quality videos. People like you are worth GOLD for how you have helped to preserve our music history. Thanks from Australia.
Depending on the actual date of the taping he was either 55 or 56 and always rockin". Thanks for the kind comments, I appreciate it and they help make it worthwhile.
You can tell by the way Carl moves here that he’s a fantastic dancer, too. A little shimmying and shaking, that’s fabulous, Oh Yeah!!
❤
Real Rockheros i meet Brian in 89 at the Blastoff Tour very nice Person very cool......but I never seen Carl play😢
I may have reservations about Setzer, but this meticulous performance cancels them and makes me wish he'd produced an album for the wonderful & BELOVED Mr. PERKINS!
❤❤
Dommage l'utilisation lourdingue de la basse électrique à l'époque: ce n'est pas le son originel du bon bon vieux rock'n'roll avec la contrebasse!! Heureusement, à l'heure actuelle, on a fait marche arrière !
