Rockin' Roy Moss CD
Roy Moss was a rockabilly singer from Arkansas.
He began his career after meeting songwriter Jimmie Skinner, who got him a job at radio station WNOP where he played regularly with the group The Country Partners.
He began playing rockabilly music right as it began cresting in the mid-1950s, and around that time Elvis Presley helped him get a slot on the show Louisiana Hayride.
Following this, Skinner managed to land Moss a contract with Mercury Records, and he released a couple of great singles in 1956.
He toured with Skinner and also worked with artists such as Pee Wee King, Cowboy Copas and Ray Price.
His 1958 single Juanita was later covered by Dale Hawkins.
He withdrew from music at the end of the 1950s, but made a comeback in 1994.
