One of the most amazing Rockabilly and Rock 'n' Roll shows of all times!

It all seemed so unlikely when the news came of the 'Sun Sound Show' to be held at North London's Rainbow Theatre starring Buddy Knox, Charlie Feathers, Warren Smith and Jack Scott. Despite two of the artists having no connection with Sun Records this was truly a dream line up. But would it, could it really happen? The questions were answered on April 30th 1977 when a near full house gathered for what was to prove an epic night of Rockabilly and Rock 'n' Roll. The atmosphere was electric and the anticipation high.

Buddy Knox had already become familiar through his earlier visits to the U. K but there was some surprise at his appearance when he took to the stage, his permed hair do and flared trousers being at odds with most of the audience. Buddy's act was slick, polished and just a little disappointing.

Rockabilly legend Charlie Feathers received a rapturous reception which almost seemed to overwhelm him, making him seem nervous and his act hesitant, but the unique Feathers voice still shone through, most notably on the earlier Sun material such as Peepin' Eyes on which the audience was willing to join in on the chorus. It took a while for the fact that we were seeing Charlie Feathers here 'live' in London to sink in.

Much the same applied to Warren Smith a true star of Sun Records. Here at last was the real deal and the ecstatic audience rose from their seats to give him a standing ovation before he had sung a note. The fact that he was here and looking just like Warren Smith was enough for most of us. Whilst clearly bemused by his reception Warren rose to the occasion to provide a storming set of his Sun classics.
