Johnny Carroll - Rockin Maybelle

His classic fifties sides for the Decca label such as Crazy, Crazy Lovin, Wild, Wild Women and Hot Rocks could be considered pre-punk nuggets. Anyone who has witnessed his performance in the teen juvenile delinquent film classic Rock Baby, Rock It knows Carroll was a rock and roll wild man.
Despite being considered a rock and roll icon by the European rockabilly audience, Carroll never really achieved stardom in the States. Carroll passed away on January 13, 1995 due to liver failure.
