Casey's Really Scratchy Record Collection Presents: "Movin" Bill Black's Combo
Bill Black was the bass player on Elvis' Sun Studio Sessions. A few years later, he formed Bill Black 's Combo playing a mix of instrumental rock, blues and r&b. They were stars in the early sixties, selling millions of records, recording a couple of top forty hits and even starring in a movie ("Teenage Millionaire" with Rocky Graziano!). Sadly, they are largely forgotten today. Bill Black died in 1965, he was 42 years old.
Here is Bill Black 's cover of Little Walter's "My Babe" from 1961's Movin' lp.
