Install It Perkins, who had a history of surviving serious health problems--a near-fatal car wreck in 1957, a successful battle with alcoholism and, in 1993, beating back throat cancer--never recovered from a series of strokes he suffered over the past three months.
Along with fellow Sun Records artists Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash, Perkins pretty much founded rock 'n' roll in the '50s, pioneering the rockabilly sound--a hybrid of country, rock and R&B. Although usually remembered as an Elvis tune, "Blue Suede Shoes" was written and recorded first by Perkins.
The Beatles idolized Perkins and, under his supervision, covered "Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby," "Matchbox" and "Honey Don't." Perkins later played guitar on Paul McCartney's Tug of War album in 1981, including the No. 1 smash, "Ebony and Ivory." He also penned hit songs for the Judds and Dolly Parton.
