Carl Perkins plays Dixie Fried live!

1957 Carl Perkins and band play live "Dixie Fried" on Tex Ritter's Ranch Party. Not the best film print but at least you get to hear and see a phenomenal performance! Restored for your pleasure. Super rare! Rave on Chillun! Let's all get Dixie Fried! The heart and soul of Rockabilly music! #heppestofthehep#hep #hoth.

Told to me as the truth by an older musician: you couldn’t hear this song on the radio. He says due to the character of the song, it wasn’t played, at least at stations in the south for quite awhile. Shame, cause it is a great song. Carl sure was talented, he could even do the Travis 3 finger picking very well also. Singer, songwriter, the timing just got off on his big break due to a car wreck. He was set to explode big and a car wreck delayed it and the impact that would’ve had. Because I think, by then, Elvis has cut his record. And beat him out the gate with his own record, due to car wreck delays? May have that wrong.

What happened to the Facebook page? I sure do miss it!

They shut it down because of complaints. Facebook censorship!

OMG how horrible!! I saw so many performances that I had never seen before. Hadn't ever seen some of the people. All that information that was shared by others. Unbelievable. I don't understand why anyone would complain. Hopefully You Tube won't kick you off!!!

They really don’t make them like this anymore!
