Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup: The original rock and roller
Jerry Gilbert, Melody Maker, 14 March 1970
ARTHUR "BIG Boy" Crudup, the man responsible for firing Elvis Presley into one of the biggest crazes of all time, has been recording for over twenty-five years. And the session which gave him most pleasure was not recorded in Chicago, or Atlanta, Georgia. It happened two weeks ago in London where Crudup was joined by a band of British blues musicians he couldn't believe existed.
