Request Lines Open: 3/4/2011 Rockabilly

Rock your socks off with the likes of Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, as well as some lesser-known artists from the heyday of Rockabilly music on this week's Rock Show. This is where to post your requests if there's anything specific you want to hear. We'll even entertain the possibility of some later Rockabilly Revival, but only if it really cooks!
"Me and the band are goin' to Perkins after this. Ha ha - just kiddin'!"

  2. Wow - you are going to need a lot of requests considering most rockabilly songs are roughly 2:30!

    But for my money, it doesn't get any better than Rock Around the Clock by Bill Haley & His Comets.

    Or the prequel to Walk This Way by Aerosmith...The Way I Walk by Jack Scott.

  3. Is Charlie Daniels too hillbilly, and not enough rockabilly?

  4. Also, Erik mentioned the shortness of rockabilly songs... to combat that, how about some Freebird?

  5. I second "Train Kept a Rollin'"!
