Billy Lee Riley remembers recording his first commercial recording in a garage on Fernwood Street in Memphis,... ...engineered by Jack Clement. The record, "Troube Bound" / "Rock With Me baby", was later sold to Sam Phillips and Billy became a Sun Recording Artist in March of 1956.
Billy Lee Riley "The Legendary Sun Performers" 1977 (Charly Rec)
Billy Lee Riley is a rockabilly singer and multi-instrumentalist. An alumni of Sun Records, he was one of the most crazed, unabashed rockers that label had to offer — in the company of Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Sonny Burgess, that's saying a lot. Proficient at harmonica, guitar, bass, and drums, Riley contributed as a sideman to many a classic Sun session, and his combo the Little Green Men (most notably guitarist Roland Janes and drummer J.M. Van Eaton) in time became the Sun house band. Riley recorded for a number of labels in a variety of styles, especially effective with blues. Though never commercially successful, Riley's Sun recordings of "Flying Saucer Rock 'n' Roll" and "Red Hot" (both covered in wooden renditions by Robert Gordon) remain landmarks of the genre. - his homepage: http://www.rockabilly.net/billyleeriley/index.shtml
