Carl approaching , an overjoyed, Clapton didn't go in for a hug , handshake , high five or fist bump ..just dipped his guitar as a salutation and salute.
I met Carl Perkins once. He watched a gig I was doing. When we spoke all he wanted to talk bout was my playing! What a humble man... rockin' Hillbilly Cat!
Clapton is in awe of these two. That's a cool thing to see. These days there are so few people that are as influential as him that aren't people he's known for decades. Perkins was a brilliant guitarist, underrated as hell.
Don't know why, but the talking between Clapton and Cash is so respectful and and full of genuine appreciation for one another that it always brings a tear to my eye. I think I need to get out more...
Many people today don't know Cash helped many rock legends back in the day,they are reasons why people like Eric Clapton,U-2,Ringo Starr and Bob Dylan nick named Cash King of Music
I have said this before but we are so lucky to have stuff like this available at the click of a button. .. Three absolute legends of popular music together like that is just priceless
The look on Claptons face when Cash walks out is priceless. You can see he is Absolutely awe struck and I know Clapton and so many other Guitar Gods wanted to be just like Perkins. Talk about legendary!
@@joshg2350 Yeah, Clapton could've retired after Cream and retained his legendary status. His most iconic works were recorded before he turned 30...that's just damn impressive.
@Pan Aaronowski I love Clapton 1970 -83 the most...live and studio.....he had Albert Lee from 79 -83.....Just One Night......they wailed....the expanded Derek and the Dominoes Live at the Fillmore.... the expanded E.C. Was Here...Croosroads 2 Live in the 70's....phenomenal....yeah he did some mellow and laid back tracks on album but Live he kicked it in the ass....saw him several times in that era .....
Jerry Perkins I'm guessing you are a relative, so l better say something nice. To be honest, as an Aussie teen from the '60's, l hadn't heard of Carl. But since l have used YT, l have learnt heaps about him, and what an enormous influence he was for many of the '60's artists, including the Beatles. Plus our own beautiful Tommy Emmanuel, speaks freely of his respect for Carl, and won an award named after Carl. So in a nutshell how could l not respect this pioneer musician, who also comes across as a very gracious man.
This is what I love about youtube.. I'm sitting here in Melbourne Australia on a rainy monday morning watching this fricken awesome video... from the Johnny Cash show 1971.
i remember my mom hollerin to me "eric claptons on tv!" i ran in the living room and got to see this fantastic song..i was 13 at the time and my favorite band was cream...thank you tube for giving me a fond memory!!
Amazing how Johnny was able to get all these icons on his show in a short time.Seen some other clips with Waylon Roger Miller the list goes on.These folks will be remembered forever.!
His friend George Harrison loved Carl Perkins as well, when the silver Beatles went touring in Scotland , he took the name Carl Harrison because of Carl Perkins and Paul was Paul Ramon
Carl was a guitar technician to all of them, Page, Beck, Harrison, Clapton you name it. This episode incidentally was recorded about two months after his good friend Jimi passed.
@caroline bjerkelund "Blue Suede Shoes" and "Matchbox" were songs by Carl Perkins, both being Elvis' first hits as Carl was recovering from a bad car accident at the time. When a car crash rewrote the script of the R&R history. "Car Crash" ... a good title for a good blues song on the R&R history .
He was a big landmark to me especially, because I am autistic and he was music therapy for me. When I was 6 months old I had headphones placed on my head with his music playing through them, and basically it was the only thing that would soothe me. Also if it weren't for him and his music, I probably would have been slower in learning things like talking and reading. He was great. We miss you Johnny. RIP.
The structure of Eric's playing is blues, which country has some roots in. Musically Eric's playing the major pentatonic scale, which is a lovely country/blues scale.
Hearing Carl Perkins playing especially his solo I can definitely hear the influence he had on George Harrison early Beatles work & Eric being close friends with Harrison that would have been a blast for Clapton playing on stage with legends who paved the way for the British Invasion
I was lucky enough to have put this and a couple other guitars together for Carl back in the 70`s when I worked at a guitar factory in Maryland also got to pick with him a couple times , He was a great guy ! I miss him
I some times wish I could of lived in this time when musicans made real music and the media wasnt filled with crap for our children and the styles of dancing where clean . This song rocks thanks for the upload Hank Hamm ! I listen to it every day and play along with it !
Not many players had the class of carl . You can see Eric is in Awe and loves them both . Still like Eric though . He has been through alot in his life and so glad he is still with us today
Well yeah, Johnny Cash crossed all musical boundaries successfully. He was not a single genre, but rather created his own subgenre that fell between folk, rock n roll, and country music. He sang all types of music and made you believe that he was actually in that genre, and also what he sang and his band played.
Americans and some stealth Canadians were the idols of a lot of the British guys and of one particular Irish one, Van Morrison. As a fan of the Van and George Harrison and a few others, I found my way to the Americans they idolized by reading liner notes. Information was not easy to come by back then. We squeezed every last datum out of whatever we had and appreciated what we got.
@littlechoppers and I love youtube because I get to hear about littlechoopers sitting in Melbourne Australia on a rainy monday morning watching the awesomness of Mr.Perkins, Mr.Cash and Mr.Clapton when I'm doing the exact same thing in the USA. My regards to your excellent musical taste my friend.
PedroMO7U He had a weekly TV show for nearly 2 years, and he had some incredible guests. Check out Cash's duet with Tony Joe White on Polk Salad Annie.
Came from Johnny Cash Show which is available on dvd collection. People who watched with me were surprised that Clapton was playing. They didn't recognize him without glasses snd beard.

This is the only time I have ever seen Clapton starstruck. When he looks at Johnny, he just looks in awe of him.
Its gotta be cash boomin authoritive voice
That was done more than a day or two ago
2 min 29 sec is all they had. PURE LAZINESS.
Carl approaching , an overjoyed, Clapton didn't go in for a hug , handshake , high five or fist bump ..just dipped his guitar as a salutation and salute.
You can tell Eric is very happy to be on the same stage with these two legends.
And they are very fatherhood towards him.....(did I invent ThE Word??+:)
I met Carl Perkins once. He watched a gig I was doing. When we spoke all he wanted to talk bout was my playing! What a humble man... rockin' Hillbilly Cat!
wow that is truly amazing. I have to say I might be a little jealous!
I love the way Clapton is respectful and plays a tight little break in the genre and doesn't turn it into an ego trip. A musician's musician.
Clapton is in awe of these two. That's a cool thing to see. These days there are so few people that are as influential as him that aren't people he's known for decades. Perkins was a brilliant guitarist, underrated as hell.
the greatest rockabilly of them all rip Carl
TALK ABOUT SERIOUSLY FOLKS. GE
KICK OUT THIS JAM !! PURE RAW, BABY !!
Don't know why, but the talking between Clapton and Cash is so respectful and and full of genuine appreciation for one another that it always brings a tear to my eye.
I think I need to get out more...
Many people today don't know Cash helped many rock legends back in the day,they are reasons why people like Eric Clapton,U-2,Ringo Starr and Bob Dylan nick named Cash King of Music
yup and he often hired down and out musicians
I have said this before but we are so lucky to have stuff like this available at the click of a button. .. Three absolute legends of popular music together like that is just priceless
it's amazing
Clapton is a god all his own.
Carl Perkins is the greatest guitar player. I can listen to him all day.
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,

One fact is quite often overlooked. Johnny CASH was a brilliant rhythm guitar player!!
Clapton's just a kid here and he can already jam with these legends... no problem! That's how good he is
Seriously check out his earlier stuff if you haven't!
Shit, he had already played in John Mayalls’s Bluesbreakers and Cream by this point and played with Duane Allman. He was a vet by this point.

Mark, In 1972 I was playing in a band with "Kevin Bloody Wilson" (4yrs)in Kalgoorlie and we met John & June Carter Cash Promoting there new CD

Amazing how Johnny was able to get all these icons on his show in a short time.Seen some other clips with Waylon Roger Miller the list goes on.These folks will be remembered forever.!
Perkins was an astonishing guitarist and band mate. He was the “3” of “Johnny Cash and the Tennesse 3.”
Luther Perkins was Johnny's guitarist.
Cash is the man, Clapton holds the flame , Perkins started the fire!
This is what happens when 3 of the best play together. Awesome overload.
Clapton is like the pup, getting to show off with the big dogs. So great!
It is amazing to see that Eric is in awe of Johnny and Carl.
His friend George Harrison loved Carl Perkins as well, when the silver Beatles went touring in Scotland , he took the name Carl Harrison because of Carl Perkins and Paul was Paul Ramon
Why the hell don’t we have tv shows like this anymore 😢
I love the way Eric is looking at Carl... he knows Carl helped start it all....ADMIRATION...RESPECT...LOVE
I was sad.. This decades been hard at best! How can you be sad after hearing this amazing talent! On one stage!! Wow!! 🎶🎶❤️❤️🙌
Johnny Cash could play his acoustic along side anyone without a care in the world; only to make music. God Bless him

can you imagine eric clapton and johnny cash together?? on top of that carl perkins??? wow incredible ....thanks for uploading it...
Carl perkins rips that solo with true style!
Carl Perkins shredds those guitar solos like a boss!
Carl Perkins, UNDERRATED And Wrote Many GREAT Songs That People Like Elvis Got Credit For.
Carl's slide down the neck at 02 07 Oh my goodness!
@@alanpowell9369 Yeah that suprise me I could'n beleive it !
@@jackdull5699 Yeah, he did. He schooled Clapton in this performance. Clapton's like wow, why'd you have to do that?
Yep! Carl Perkins...one of the absolute God fathers of rock'n'roll!!!! :-)
Colsoloact Along with Ike Turner, Little Junior Parker, Muddy Waters.
And Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley. Let us not forget Jerry Lee Lewis.
With the worst stylist....

What a fantastic gem it was!! R.I.P. Carl and John R. /CD
Wow, Eric really blended into that rockabilly guitar style perfectly.
The structure of Eric's playing is blues, which country has some roots in. Musically Eric's playing the major pentatonic scale, which is a lovely country/blues scale.
Rock N Roll is just RockaBilly, you could say that blues is just like Kung-fu, in the martial arts sense, it's ENDLESS.
Claptons solo ripped right out from Chuck Berry
That’s why he’s a legend. He is diverse and can play anything.
@@barryleslie7727 EC was playing straight up Chuck Berry riffs during this.
E. Clapton watches J. Cash as a child meeting Father Christmas. I love them all.
Fantastic. You'll ever be the King of Rockabilly and master of guitar.
The best best best don't get no better than that !
They treat each other with so much respect! Great to see this little treasure... 😊
This is real music, it inspires the good in people. I wish there were a lot more fellows doing similar music today, instead of crap .
Excelente video. Un niño Erick Clapton con los grandes maestros en especial mi favorito Carl Perkins......
Carl Perkins playing fantastic guitar here… such a great sound he has!
I love to watch Eric's face during this, he's in ecstasy standing between these two guys. Nice Layla Strat too.
Sooooo Bad Ass !!! Love The Way These Guys Jamed together!!
Totally Awesome....
Carl Perkins. King of Rockabilly. Wonderful man. Great heart
Eric is just beaming the whole time. Love this.
Those singers were a lot younger than just heard another one of them singing the same song when they're older it's great to hear that
Hearing Carl Perkins playing especially his solo I can definitely hear the influence he had on George Harrison early Beatles work & Eric being close friends with Harrison that would have been a blast for Clapton playing on stage with legends who paved the way for the British Invasion
I was lucky enough to have put this and a couple other guitars together for Carl back in the 70`s when I worked at a guitar factory in Maryland also got to pick with him a couple times , He was a great guy ! I miss him
Carl is such a powerhouse I really didn't realize it till recently !
Это бомба …. Всю свою сознательную жизнь -слушаю…
Three LEGENDS of Rock & Roll jamming. Could it get any better?
NO!!
Yeah. While my guitar gently weeps live performance by Prince, Jeff Lynne, Steve Winwood, Tom Petty, and Dhani Harrison
I some times wish I could of lived in this time when musicans made real music and the media wasnt filled with crap for our children and the styles of dancing where clean . This song rocks thanks for the upload Hank Hamm ! I listen to it every day and play along with it !
Сколько концертов эти ребята сделали супер музыканты вечная память всем ушедшим рокерам
This song should never end.
I agree. Wow. If only I could've been there
Eric was immortalized here with these giants.
Not many players had the class of carl . You can see Eric is in Awe and loves them both . Still like Eric though . He has been through alot in his life and so glad he is still with us today
Another hidden gem found on TH-cam! Thanks for posting.
Three legendary musical artists right there playing real music.
Fantastic!!!!! You cant get any better than these 3!!
Gotta love that rockerbilly guitar of Perkins !!!!
johnny cash is so badass he dosnt even need a microphone
I'll tell you why. When he couldn't get on a Sun, he was pragmatic and went to Radio Announcer Training School. No Joke.
He has a microphone on him
Johnny cash needs no Microphone the Microphone needs him
baritone giant
2:17
he tried to do same,but failed
his voice wasnt heard
Just saw this on GET TV and now needing to find it here on You Tube(which I did). Thank you!
claptons face when the mighty Man In Black walks up to him and it gets even better when Mr Perkins arrives
This is beyond classic....Look at the energy and completely team effort
very awesome to see these three together doin a classic
two of my musical heros on stage together. I must say though Johnny makes Eric look like a boy amongst men.
Both must be 35 And Eric only 25
Well yeah, Johnny Cash crossed all musical boundaries successfully. He was not a single genre, but rather created his own subgenre that fell between folk, rock n roll, and country music. He sang all types of music and made you believe that he was actually in that genre, and also what he sang and his band played.

legendary gold... just sheer
pleasure to see and hear..... bravo!
Simple music can make you sing simple hug can make you feel better simple things can make you happy, i hope my simple Hello brings smile to your face,
Watching a few of these shows on YT, I just realized Mr. Cash's show was one of the best ever.
You can just see the reverence that Eric Clapton has for Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash.
More talent here with these 3 than all of today's modern music combined
Carl Perkins kick some serious butt playing guitar, wat a Rock N Roller
Classic!
the way johnny cash has his ax is so cool RXB
Priceless treasure 💖
Absolut worldtopp-class all 3 performance
Eric Clapton´s voice is so awesome
And It GOT even better zru ThE years

OMG 3 Legends on stage together!!
Clapton always looks like a different person over the years. Whenever he'd change his style he'd look like a completely different person.
It don't get any better than this.terrific.thankyou
i have a 24 track recording of the last carl perkins concert in the UK royal albert hall i think
Eu ADORO esta música e sobretudo a apresentação clássica dos três músicos juntos.
Fantástico!!!!!
3 LEGENDS TOGETHER, BRILLIANT. R.I.P. JOHNNY & CARL.
I remember watching Johnny Cash's tv show as a teen. He had so many greats on that he played with. These two, Bob Dylan, Linda Ronstadt.

+Alex F I watch it when I was a kid. Saw every episode practically.
ran from '69-70, and 70-71..a great show..
PedroMO7U I got the DVD from the library, and " lost it" 😝🤗 Hehehehe
Hallelujah,praise God for this
this is a great one Johnny cash i have a lot of respect for this music.thank you for the uploader.
Carl's solo guitar pickin is just out of this world
Johnny Cash was just plain cool.
Came from Johnny Cash Show which is available on dvd collection. People who watched with me were surprised that Clapton was playing. They didn't recognize him without glasses snd beard.
Look at Clapton...He's lovin' Perkins go to work!
Because Carl IS so funny that he makes Eric laugh And smile
@@pabloperez4063 Hey Pablo he invented this stuff, go back to your taco
Now that's funny!
Holy crap! This is so fantastic I can't even express myself properly.
these were some good ole days, and great crossovers
Carl Perkins was born on this date in 1932. {Apr. 9th}
Sadly; Mr. Perkins passed away on January 19th, 1998 at age 65...
May he R.I.P.
Carl great on lead guitar.😀
Holy Shit! It really doesn't get any better than these 3 guys. Absolutely amazing.
