Carl Perkins - Movie Magg
Time for early Rockabilly as Carl Perkins sings his self-penned "Movie Magg."
Released in early 1955 on Flip #501.
This Flip Records was a short-lived subsidiary of Sam Phillips' Sun Records.
Sam had to shutter the label during 1955 after receiving a cease-and-desist letter from the owners of a same-named Los Angeles-based Rhythm and Blues label (best remember for The Six Teens' 1956 hit, a casual look).
