"Carl Perkins and Friends: A Rockabilly Session" (feature) by George Harrison and Ringo Starr - ****

First released: 1985

Carl Perkins amazingly got both Ringo and George to not only come out of virtual retirement, but also appear together on this special. Ringo sings "Honey Don’t" and "Matchbox". George sings "Everybody’s Trying to Be My Baby" and "Glad All Over" and everyone sings along with Carl on everything else including Eric Clapton and Dave Edmunds among others. A great concert that made it onto video in 1986, also made a great DVD later on in 2002.
