December 19, 1955 – Carl Perkins recorded “Blue Suede Shoes” two days after writing the song. Johnny Cash told Perkins of an airman he knew in the Air Force who referred to his dress shoes in that way and suggested it to Perkins as a song title. #ROCkabillyHop #BlueSuedeShoes #CarlPerkins #RocHop #OTD #RockNRoll
