This is probably my favorite Gene Vincent video clip, with his Clapper Boys (almost) stealing the show:
Gene Vincent & the Blue Caps: Baby Blue (1958, from the movie "Hot Rod Gang")
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0AFF1WnagUI've always liked the record, too, and it's one of the more often played 45s in my collection.
Gene Vincent visited Finland in 1964, being the first of the major 1950s rock'n'roll stars to do so. But even though he made a good impression on those who were lucky enough to see one of his two performances, I doubt that they were nowhere near as ecstatic as this one.

On this day in 1971, Gene Vincent died as a result of a perforated ulcer. H was only 36 years old.
His influence can be heard in music from the ‘50s right through to the present day.
