There are several rockabilly artists from the 1950s when rockabilly originally hit the scene that have since become household names. These are artists that pretty much everyone has heard of. Among these names are Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Conway Twitty (who was recording back then as Harold Jenkins). But there are other rockabilly cats who had a huge impact on the world of rock and roll but whose names most people wouldn't recognize, even though they're probably familiar with some of their music from listening to "oldies." Then of course, there are the completely obscure rockabilly artists whose songs never survived to make it onto oldies radio shows and whose names are all but lost to rock and roll history. Yet the music that these musicians made proves the value of their contributions to rock and roll.
