This was Rockabilly. Thanks for doing this version. Johnny's brother Doresy was on stand up bass. And this song was wild for its time in the 50s.
Man he is killin' that bass!
The original was by Tiny Bradshaw in 1951. Johnny redid it in 1956 and changed the guitar part... which made it better. You really should hear Aerosmith's version... it is 🔥FIRE!!!🔥
The Yardbirds also did a great cover version. ruclips.net/video/WRVPAfGqCeY/видео.html
Yardbirds and Motorhead also covered it . I like the Tiny Bradshaw version better than this because it's easier to hear the lyrics .
The Aerosmith version is fire. So is the Yardbirds version.
First version I heard!
When I hear the live version by Aerosmith I drive too fast and miss my exit!
It was 4 years later in 1960 when he was a solo act that he became more famous with 2 particular songs, 'Dreamin' & 'You're Sixteen'.
His career was cut short on August 14, 1964, when he was killed in a boat crash at age 30 :(
You want growl - try Wanda Jackson singing Fujiyama Mama, she was the Queen of Rockabilly, back in Elvis' day.
Oh Wanda..Yes and Tunnel of love, my fave Rockabilly chick fantastic voice!
"Hard Headed Women"
Elvis and Wanda dated briefly…it was Elvis who advised her to switch from country to rockabilly…
Sadly, he died at the age of 30 in a boating accident in August 1964. His son Rocky had a big hit in 1980 with "Tired of Toein' the Line" and also had another catchy tune, "Boogie Man"
Love Tired of Toeing the Line
Great song, Dorsey was father of Billy Burnette who was in Fleetwood Mac at one time too..
It is a called a double bass or a bass fiddle. I love his song "You're Sixteen, You're Beautiful (And You're Mine) "
Johnny Burnette was an American singer & songwriter of rockabilly & pop music in the 50's-60's. Ricky Nelson recorded several of the Burnette brother's songs. "Dreamin'" was Johnny's biggest solo hit but he had a few other songs such as "You're Sixteen", "I Beg Your Pardon", "Little Boy Sad", "(I Go) Down To The River", "God, Country & My Baby", "Honestly I Do" etc. In 1973 Ringo Starr recorded a version of "You're Sixteen".
You guys should sample the Queen of Rockabilly on female Fridays, Wanda Jackson. Check out 'Let's Have a Party'.
Elvis encouraged her in that direction. She was exclusively Country before.
Saw her in a bar in Columbus with the Belmont Playboys backing her up.
"Mean, mean man."
As others have said, you should do the Yardbirds or Aerosmith versions. Especially Aerosmith! It's FIRE 🔥
My favorite Aerosmith song.
The Yardbirds, who were the incubator group for hall of fame guitarists, "electrified" this song in 1966. Jeff Beck was the early master of guitar effects and raised the song to a level that had never been heard before. Then in 1974 Aerosmith covered the Yardbird's version and made it even louder and nastier. All three recordings are terrific.
Aerosmith also changed the arrangement a bit to give the "feel" of a locomotive.
they didn't electrified anything, this guitar tone is dirtier than Jeff Beck's in The Yardbirds cover... what they did was making it less sincopated, more straight forward, a little bit faster and added a bridge instrumental section
@@JulioLeonFandinho Johnny Burnette turned this into a rock and roll anthem, Yardbyrds, Aerosmith just ripped off his version
A lot of Elvis earlier songs were rockabilly. Hound dog, All shook up, jailhouse rock. A really good instrumental rockabilly song is Rebel Rouser by Duane Eddy.
The three songs you mention aren't Rockabilly. Check out his other Sun Recordings --those are indeed Rockabiilly.
@@timcarr6401 Yes, like "That's Alright, Mama"
@@ediefolta9494 And :
Blue Moon Of Kentucky
Good Rockin' Tonight
Milk Cow Blues Boogie
Baby Let's Play House
Mystery Train
Etc.
@@timcarr6401 I digress after a quick check all three songs are classified as rockabilly. Big hugs and much love ❤️
@@timcarr6401 blue moon of Kentucky is actually blue grass.
Melisma is what its called when people sing in those runs. It is basically a series of notes in 1 breath or 1 syllable. The in and out you referring to comes as they change notes or pitches. It was heavy in classical music. You normally wouldn't refer to it as melisma, instead you refer to it as melismatic. Something like did you notice that melismatic run in the middle of that song.
My most fav Rockabilly band ever! Have loved them from the first time I heard them back in the late 80's when I was a teen. The guitar Johnnys singing and scream in his song always make me giddy! I can't believe your reacting to this group! Love you guys!
Yes Aerosmith covered this along with Led Zeppelin and The Yardbirds. The Yardbirds can claim Jeff beck, Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page as former members.
Amber you are correct, it is an old style stand up bass.
Ditto with everyone else's comments so far, you MUST react to Aerosmith's cover of this! It's my favorite cover of all time!
YES!!! Finally some kick @ss old school rockabilly!! 🤘
Please do the Aerosmith version of this song sometime down the road. Amber will once again be rising from her seat!!!
You would not break my heart to hang out in the 50’s rock for a lengthy time.
Several of us have posted lists of Rockabilly songs, and I even emailed some.
When you listened to Stray Cats, that was Rockabilly. It's like country/southern rock/R&B, with a bass, double bass, or bass fiddle (that Jordon asked about) being a big part of the band.
Elvis, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry and Jerry Lewis had some Rockabilly sounds. In the '80s, The Stray Cats brought the style back, big time. You should listen to former Stray Cats member, Brian Setzer and his orchestra. Amazing!
Def the Stray Cat Strut
My mom played this song until she wore out the .45! Haven't heard it in probably 40 years. Good one!
Wow, new song for me too! He's really bangin that guitar! Lol ps: saw y'alls news story😊... Glad I've discovered your channels ❤️
Paul Burleson is the lead guitarist and his fuzz guitar lines were very influential in the early days of rock and roll. This was before whammy bars and fuzz pedals made guitar distortion more easily done.
This is rock a billy at its purist. Just perfect.
Johnny’s son, Rocky Burnette had a hit in the 80’s with “Tired Of Toein’ The Line”.
Dorsey's son, Billy, was part of Fleetwood Mac.
Okay guys. Hopefully this will help. When Rock and Roll was first starting, it was a combination of the other established genres. And Rocking and Rolling was a euphemism for making love used by the younger generation. That was pretty commonly understood, hence the objection from the "Establishment". The other component was "hillbilly" music. So...Rockabilly. There were also touches of Jazz, Blues, and Boogie. All these components became distilled into what we know now as "Rock and Roll". That, of course, splintered into all the subsequent forms of "Rock Music". Including Hip Hop, Psychedelic, Stadium, Punk, Rap, Grunge, etc al. At least this has been my view of how it went from what I've seen over the past 60 years or so. I hope this clears things up a little for you guys. BTW, I love you guys! I can't tell you how much it means to me to see your validation for the soundtrack of my life! And judging by the comments, there's a lot of us old folks that feel the same. Jay and Amber, you guys let me know that the "Hippie Ideals" are still alive and kicking. Love truly IS the answer. Your positivity is exactly what we were going for back "in the day". Peace and Love are still what we need to shoot for! It's not always going to be like that, but we still have to try. Amber, you would be a perfect "Hippie girl". Much love to your beautiful family. You guys are what America is REALLY all about. Long life and happiness to y'all!
You really need to do Wipe Out by the Surfaris drums and guitars . Major moving plus gives us some summer time feelings in this cold weather. 🥁🎸😁
I have always heard the "in and out" referred to as a Buddy Holly hiccup. The story is that their father gave Johnny and Dorsey "Gene Autry" guitars in 1939, and they broke them over each other's heads. Rockabilly was not a genteel version of Rock'n'Roll. It occurs to me that you won't find any Rockabilly performers for Female Friday until the B-52's appear. They weren't exactly Rockabilly, but it is an unmistakable part of their heritage.
Wanda Jackson was a contemporary of Elvis and was known as "the Queen of Rockabilly." But, yeah, the B-52s are also a good choice for a reaction. While watching this reaction, I also immediately thought of The Cramps.
well, there is great female rockabilly singers from the 50's, Wanda Jackson's earlier stuff springs o mind and there is also Sparkle Moore!
Nonsense, Wanda Jackson was the queen of Rockabilly. Lorrie Collins of the Collins Kids also shuck up things. Sparkle Moore, Janis Martin, Alvis Lesley were just some of the rockabilly chicks.
Never heard this version, they are cool cats!
Still have to say I think the Aerosmith version on Get Your Wings is lights out and my fave!
Johnny Burnette - brings back memories. First got into popular music around 1960, when I was about 10. In the UK, Cliff and Elvis were the 'big 2' Then I discovered Del Shannon - my new favourite. When I reached the grand old age of 12, I often went to the local record shop during our school lunchbreak and ask to hear certain songs in the listening booth. The staff were great and were happy to accommodate a snotty nosed little schoolkid in short trousers. The two songs I requested most were Little Boy Sad by Johnny Burnette and My Bonnie by Tony Sheridan and the Beatles. In what must have been little more than a blink of an eye later, it was all Beatles and the rest is history.
Awesome song!!🤘🔥
Good ol rockabilly. Love it. You two have no idea how risqué this was back then.
Rocky Burnette is Johnny's son who had a few hits in the 80's, - Try toein' the line by him.
This was from a tv talent show called The Original Amateur Hour hosted by Ted Mack and sponsored by GERITOL (an "Anti-Aging" vitamin tonic, LOL!), so must be when he was discovered (no professionals allowed to compete). Jay should know 'Rockabilly' well by now (Stray Cats and the Rockabilly Revival).
I never even heard of these guys. I thought that was an Aerosmith original! WOW Even at 60 I learn something new today! 🤩 Keep up,the good work!
Johnny and his brother Dorsey had a group called The Original Rock & Roll Trio. Johnny's son, Rocky, had a one-hit wonder with "Tired Of Toein' the Line" in 1979. Dorsey's son, Billy, was nominated as CMA Best New Country Artist in 1986, and replaced Lindsey Buckingham in Fleetwood Mac in late 1987.
I love that you guys always want to go back to the roots of the music to understand where things came from. This was a new one on me. Loved it!
If you want more Rockabilly try ‘Good Rockin’ Tonight’, ‘Milkcow Blues Boogie’, or ‘Blue Moon Of Kentucky’ by Elvis. Wanda Jackson is another one you guys have to hear. ‘Hard Headed Woman’, ‘Fujiyama Mama’ or ‘Funnel Of Love’ is where I’d start with her music.
Johnny Depp did a movie called, "Crybaby" where he played a rockabilly guy. You might want to check it out.
Please react to any song from Brian Selzter Orchestra. Also Selena's "Como la flor" and Buckwheat Zydeco's "Hey Good Looking".
The original membership of the Rock and Roll Trio were Johnny Burdette (vocals, guitar), Dorsey Burnette (bass, vocals), and Paul Budison (Guitar). This was the lineup on their first few sessions, including the recording of Train Kept a=Rolling in 2956. Shortly afterward, they added Tony Austin on drums.
After Austin joined, their management began billing them as Johnny Burnette and the Rock and Roll Trio and then the Johnny Burnette Trio. Dorsey quit shortly afterward, and they hired Johnny Black on bass. This was the lineup that performed in their first film appearance.
It is unclear who, besides Johnny, played at their last session in March 1957. Some reports indicate that Dorsey appeared to meet a contractual obligation and others suggest that other than Johnny, session musicians were used.
Both Johnny and Dorsey found success as songwriters and solo artists after the band broke up. Johnny, sadly, died in 1964 in a boating accident.
Johnny's son Rocky had a hit in 1980 with Tired of Toein' the Line, which is worth reacting to. Dorsey's son Billy also has had a long career with moderate success, both as a solo artist and for a time with Fleetwood Mac (1987-1996).
That vocal style is called “the hiccup”. Buddy Holly used it a lot in his vocals too.
The bassist was Dorsey Burnette, Johnny's brother. The guitarist in the old tv clip was Paul Burlison, but the guitarist on this record was the great Grady Martin, who was doing a lot of session work at Owen Bradley's studio in Nashville (where this was recorded). Paul's style (and ability) and Grady's were worlds apart.
It was called rock a Billy before it was rockin roll ,this is the Era where Elvis was hanging around barn dances
an learned the style ,the Burnette's among others caught Elvis sneaking around getting ideas from them ,you
need to check the Burnette's biography & interviews about it!..🤣😂
Great reaction & review you two!..👍👍
Johnny Burnett and the Rock n Roll Trio what a Rockabilly legend RAW and Unique 🙌 this Man and his band ONE of the best from a Teddy Boy 🎶🎼📻🎶🚀 in the UK we love this man's music 🎼 Unique and No body can do Johnny Burnett songs better than JOHNNY BURNETT himself . Dorsay Burnett on the Double base the best to me on the Double base pleased your discovering Rock n Roll and Rockabilly 📻🎶🚀🎼🙌🤝🙏
The double bass, also known simply as the bass (or by other names), is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed (or plucked) string instrument in the modern symphony orchestra (excluding unorthodox additions such as the octobass). Similar in structure to the cello, it has four, although occasionally five, strings.
The bass is a standard member of the orchestra's string section, along with violins, viola, and cello, as well as the concert band, and is featured in concertos, solo, and chamber music in Western classical music. The bass is used in a range of other genres, such as jazz, 1950s-style blues and rock and roll, rockabilly, psychobilly, traditional country music, bluegrass, tango and folk music.
The bass is a transposing instrument and is typically notated one octave higher than tuned to avoid excessive ledger lines below the staff. The double bass is the only modern bowed string instrument that is tuned in fourths (like a bass guitar or viol), rather than fifths, with strings usually tuned to E1, A1, D2 and G2.
The instrument's exact lineage is still a matter of some debate, with scholars divided on whether the bass is derived from the viol or the violin family.
The double bass is played with a bow (arco), or by plucking the strings (pizzicato), or via a variety of extended techniques. In orchestral repertoire and tango music, both arco and pizzicato are employed. In jazz, blues, and rockabilly, pizzicato is the norm. Classical music and jazz use the natural sound produced acoustically by the instrument, as does traditional bluegrass. In funk, blues, reggae, and related genres, the double bass is often amplified.
This way of singing is quite typical for rockabilly. Other great examples for this are Mystery Train by Elvis, Rave On by Buddy Holly or Be-Bop-a-Lula by Gene Vincent, all worth checking out.
And I also need to say that I'm aware of the cover versions out there (and that this here is also a cover from the 1951 original by Tiny Bradshaw), I just like the Johnny Burnette one the most, it sounds absolutely wild and bold for the time in which it was produced, just imagine how crazy it must have been hearing this as a teenager in the 50s...
I wish someone would react to Elvis' " Mystery Train"!
Areosmith Covered this on their record "Get Your Wings" Which came out in 1974 and if I'm not mistaken they were the 3rd band to cover it. But hearing Areosmith do it is cool because 1/2 way thru the song it switches from a studio recording to a Live recording and makes it stand out as my favorite cover of it... Though their song "Momma Kin" is my all time favorite Aerosmith song again Live it Kicks Ass!!!!
Fun fact: "Train Kept a Rollin" was the first song The New Yardbirds ever rehearsed together in late summer of 1968. Within a couple of months or so, they changed the name of the band to Led Zeppelin. There are some bootlegs (of varying audio quality) of LZ performing the song, as it was a staple of their earliest live shows in '68/'69.
👍😄another good one!
The rapid in and out vocals with space in between each note, is called stacatto. It's when you hit a note and get off of it very quickly. You can do it once, or several times. It's done a lot in operatic/classical singing. Someone mentioned melisma. Melisma is when the voice runs up and down several notes in a row (up or down), but the notes are connected and smooth. Melismas are done a lot in r&b/soul music and of course, also operatic/classical as well. If you want to see some rocking out musicians from the same period (although it's not rockabilly): Louis Prima and his wife Keely Smith and their band doing Night Train ('57). avi. The sax player, Sam Butera gets down and Louis and Keely have great personalities that play off of each other. Give it a whirl! And congratulations on the success of your reaction videos!
YES! Louie Prima! One of the Rat Packs favorite acts to go see.
Timeless tune
PLEASE do Johnnie Burnette's "You're Sixteen" which was my favorite of my parent records. The song was eventually covered by Ringo Starr as a solo artist.
Oh this is a treat. I've never heard this before in my life but I know Aerosmith's version so I appreciate this very much.
You definately need to check out reverend Horton heat for rockabilly and also some steam powered giraffes if you want something that is steampunk driven
Horton Heat is great. He's that Psychobilly sound
Jordan started this channel but Amber is the one who really has been on a journey. I imagine her musical tastes are so radically altered now.
I'd guess it's been at least 50 years since I heard this. Johnny Burnett was definitely under-rated vs. his peers. Great reaction, too!
I've heard this by so many performers, but don't recall this version.
OH the thing he does with his voice, is what I use to do because I was a Rock-a-Billy singer too. we always called it a hiccup 😎
Rockin out like this cause it is the beginning of rock , remember no one had a style any one else has seen before , staking his place in the song with his style ! 😍😍
TRAIN KEPT A-ROLLIN' was covered pretty well in the 60s by the Yardbirds, featuring Jimmy Page.
When the four members of Led Zeppelin first convened, TRAIN KEPT A-ROLLIN' was the very first song they ever played together.
But the best version of the tune is Aerosmith's, off their second album. It's half studio, half live, and those guys tear it up!
In fact, the vibe rocked so hard, that for many years, it was used as either their opener or closer for every show.
I highly recommend it.
Yes!
It's cool that your getting Deep. And don't forget to Boogie children 🤠🐎🇺🇸
They grew up with Elvis, live in the same place, went to the same school, played on the same football team, worked at the same job.
Funny thing was these guys were always the “top dog” at the time growing up- thing switched when Elvis got into music, he was the “top dog” then.
...and these guys followed Elvis into the music world.
It’s so funny how they all knew each other growing up.
You did do some rockabilly before - The Stray Cats. Hope you'll do them again, like "Stray Cat Strut" or "She's Sexy + 17". FYI - Johnny's son Rocky Burnette is also a rockabilly singer.
Legend has it that the fuzz tone on the guitar solo happened because Paul Burlison dropped his amp and one of the tubes got dislodged.
Legend is wrong in this case: it was a loose screw in his guitar pickup that rattled when he hit the low E string. Note that when he plays octaves, the high E string has a pure tone and the low E buzzes.
If you do track down the original 78 of this, listen to the other side as well: “Honey Hush” was a cover of a recent (well, 1953 was recent then) track by Big Joe Turner. When the Yardbirds covered “Train”, the melody and words of the A-side got mashed up with the guitar riff from the B-side, and all subsequent versions (Aerosmith, Sugarloaf, etc) played it that way.
Another great cover of an awesome classic.
Aerosmith (in the '70s) and the Yardbirds (in the '60s) famously covered this high-spirited track. Johnny Burnette is better known for the smoothly-charming hits "You're Sixteen" (which Ringo Starr covered in the '70s) and "Dreamin'." Johnny died tragically at age 30 but his son Rocky carried on his legacy with the surprise, modern-rockabilly hit "Tired of Toein' the Line" in 1980.
This is the archetypal rockabilly song. Pretty much influenced everybody. This was the first song the members of Led Zeppelin played together. They showed up for their first rehearsal & Jimmy Page says, "Does everyone know 'Train Kept a'Rollin?" and the rest is history. Aerosmith also covered this song.
Keep going. Lotsa great Rockabilly.
Enjoyed this😊 ❄️❤️☃️🇨🇦
The Aerosmith version is definitely THE version to react to next. Aerosmith made this song huge in the '70s. Every Rocker played this song by them LOUD in their cars.
PREACH!
As an Aerosmith fan and concert goer in the 70s I felt there version of this song was weak, just not the right feel for the song, more about volume and power vocals than raw passion in pursuit of a hot gal., missed the entire intent of the reckess and raw vocals, Aeroamith was a great band, but to me a totally forgettable version of this classic raw rockabilly classic.
That distorted guitar tone was definitely an influence on 60s and 70s rock; I've seen this described as the beginning of Heavy Metal.
The Yardbirds made this song huge in the 60's
Zeppelin played it as their opener
great sng. I also like the clips of Betty Page, always liked her
There's another song, by Big Joe Turner in 1953, called "Honey Hush" which is practically the same song! An amped up version of Honey Hush was released by the band Foghat in 1974, the same year that Aerosmith covered Train Kept A-Rollin'.
People nowadays will probably have issue with some of the lyrics on " Honey Hush "
Wow you pulled this one out and I had no idea who they were but boy am I impressed or what?! A pioneer for sure. I was only two when this came out and then like country for those first few years because that's all my mom listen to then.Cool guys
The Rock n Roll trio were fantastic real Rockabilly and Burlisons fuzz on the loose tube in his Guitar amp way ahead of its time.
Johnny Burnette went on his own & did some great songs in the Early-1960s.
AEROSMITH did a cover of this on their GET YOUR WINGS album which incidentally also has the amazing track called SEASONS OF WITHER.
Wow! I have never heard this version before and it is amaing! This is so much more dance-able than any other version.
Pure 50s rockabilly
Yes the standup Bass was used before they came out with the Bass guitar witch made traveling easier. LOL
Major kudos for gettin into original rockabilly!
The big instrument is an upright bass. They were the bass that would be used by orchestras then transferred to jazz and rock before the electric bass was created.
"Hello Mary Lou" by Ricky Nelson, "Blue Suede Shoes" Carl Perkins and "Rock Around The Clock" by Bill Haley and His Comets are couple other great rockabilly hits. "Blue Suede Shoes" was later covered by Elvis Presley as well.
Brian Setzer (formerly of Stray Cats)Orchestra is awesome. Try If the house is a rocking (Stevie Ray Vaughan song). They also have some fabulous Christmas albums.
The song was written by tiny Bradshaw a black man who had a big band from the big band era! Johnny Burnette came along years later and put a rockabilly spin on his song. Jeff Beck wrote the guitar licks and made it hard rock song which all the bands that followed used to this day.
Learn something new every day.
I always thought this was an Aerosmith song
He was huge!!!!
This is so much fun! I've never heard this before. I love his stage presence as well. I can just see the TV censors going insane like w/Elvis the "Pelvis".
The large instrument is a double bass - often used before electric bass guitars became common. I bought several Johnny Burnette records - on old shellac 78rpm singles!! - in the early sixties, from 2nd hand record shops in South East London.
I've been aware of Aerosmith's version since it came out in the seventies and is one of my favorites by them. This one is different but also fantastic.
Please, please... check out the Aerosmith version. It's a much harder rock version of the same song and I think you'll really enjoy it.
I'm pretty sure I commented on what rockabilly was, in a previous video.
I've got this song on a rockabilly cd set.....and yes, it was covered.....probably the most famous version is by The Yardbirds and later, Aerosmith did, indeed, do a well-played version!
Yeah, I glad you all got the video.
Nailed it. Jive and swing dancing definitely a part of the Rockabilly scene
Is that Betty Page? I'm reasonably certain he was the inspiration for Johnny Bravo.For some great modern Rock a billy...
Check out The Stray Cats- Rock this town
Pioneers of every instrument of bluegrass and country are playing on, "Wabash Cannonball" from the album, "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" 👍
tiny bradshaw's is not as fast , but it's right up amber's alley . it has a more 50's groove to it .
aerosmith's is the one i grew up on . becuz i play guitar , that is the one i learned how to play !
The stand-up or doghouse bass was the way bands played before the electric bass as we know it was born. You have listened to Rockabilly before as that was how Elvis was described before the term rock-n-roll. Songs like THAT'S ALL RIGHT, MAMA and BLUE MOON OF KENTUCKY fall onto the category. The British Invasion gave us the version by the Yardbirds, which then made it popular to American bands most notably Aerosmith. Others like Carl Perkins, Eddie Cochran, Wanda Jackson, Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison and others, contributed to this popular music as it helped define rock-n-roll. Later on, in the 8o's the Stray Cats would bring it to life.
Elvis - MY BABY LEFT ME
Jerry Lee Lewis - BREATHLESS
Carl Perkins - BLUE SUEDE SHOES.
Man, Jay's smile is explosive
The woman in the clips is Bettie Page- she was a famous ( infamous?) 'pin-up' model of the '40s & '50s, posing for 'cheesecake' (non-nude), partial nude, & leather bondage pix! She was famous & much sought after by both amateur & professional photographers, & was featured in wide variety of 'adult' & 'underground' magazines of that time- she still has her fans & admirers to this day, although she'd found religion & retired in privacy, passing away several years ago!! & yes, that's called a 'stand-up' bass, 'slap bass' or bass fiddle/violin ( when played with a bow in an orchestra...) ( BTW---- "WHITE BIRD" by the band IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY... luv U guys! )
Johnny Burnette was fiery for sure. Golden Gloves boxer in Memphis.
Johnny's son Rocky had a semi-retro hit in 1980 called "Tired of Toein' the Line" which is great fun. The Burnette brothers were one of the Beatles' big influences.
He inhales at the end of the words to get that sudden cut off phenomenon.
