Billy Lee Riley, the man who cut Flying Saucers Rock'n'Roll for Sun in 1957, materialized, looking like 5,000 concentrated volts. He spread his hands before him as if holding a birthday cake.

- Nick Tosches (Country: The Biggest Music In America)

Red Hot was red hot. It could blast you out of your skull and make you feel happy about it.

Change your life.

- Bob Dylan

Jerry Lee Lewis' original guitarist,

Roland Janes 

and

insane, Sun wildman,

Billy Lee Riley,

whose Back to the Future hits include

Flying Saucers Rock 'n' Roll

and

Red Hot,

team-up for Catfish, a Miltown-lazy 7" 45rpm instrumental, released under the tossed-off pickup-band appelation The Spitfires, whose strolling instrumental, b-side on Memphis based *Jaro International Records' Fireball Mail.

Catfish wags the dog, whose best friend thought HE was walkin' HIM in Memphis, 1959.

It sounds like Travis Wammack and Elvis bassist, Bill Black had a baby, who used to have an uncle, but she died; sold it to a Germantown family, fed him a strict diet of pablum and the music of Bill Justis and Boots Randolph as spun-out by Dewey Phillips on WHBQ Radio.

*obscurity reveals itself slowly, and therefore, I am pleased to introduce a newly discovered Elvis- Memphis Mafia-related chestnut

entitled

F.B.I. Story / What Must I Do ‎(7", Single)

Jaro International

A Rudy Grayzell performed by Elvis' Red West, original member of Elvis Presley's  Memphis Mafia.

Red West

Robert "Red" Gene West

Red West (born March 8, 1936, Bolivar, Tennessee, USA – died July 18, 2017, Memphis, Tennessee, USA) was an American actor, songwriter, and singer.

He was a high school friend of Elvis Presley and became the singer's driver, bodyguard and confidante, until he was expelled from Elvis' inner circle (the so-called "Memphis Mafia") in the mid-1970s after becoming too vocal about Presley's drug habits and unhealthy associations. West was a movie stuntman and appeared in 16 of Elvis' films in the 1960s, usually playing extras or bit and supporting parts.

He also wrote songs that were recorded by Elvis, and other artists such as Pat Boone, Ricky Nelson and Johnny Rivers, including the classic tune "Separate Ways" for Elvis, which won a BMI Award.

Hot Damn!

 

 

In Nick Tosches' book Country: The Biggest Music In America, the author covers Jerry Lee Lewis' Southern Roots session, and mentions Billy:

Billy Lee Riley, the man who cut Flying Saucers Rock'n'Roll for Sun in 1957, materialized, looking like 5,000 concentrated volts. He spread his hands before him as if holding a birthday cake.

In 2015, Bob Dylan offered this tribute to Riley:

He was a true original. He did it all: He played, he sang, he wrote.

 

He would have been a bigger star but Jerry Lee came along. And you know what happens when someone like that comes along.

 

You just don't stand a chance.

 

So Billy became what is known in the industry—a condescending term—as a one-hit wonder.

 

But sometimes, just sometimes, once in a while, a one-hit wonder can make a more powerful impact than a recording star who's got 20 or 30 hits behind him.
