Chanteur Rockabilly US né John Lewis Carrell, le 23 Octobre 1937 à Cleburne (Texas). Johnny Carroll a débuté en 1955 et est découvert par Jack "Tiger" Goldman qui le fait signer chez Decca où il enregistre en avril 56. En 1957, il passe chez Phillips International, un label annexe à la Sun Records, puis à la Warner Bros. en 1958 et se fait oublier. Retour remarqué en 1974 chez Rollin' Rock Records et depuis il se produit régulièrement sur scène et enregistre du Country Rock. Johnny Carroll a bâti sa légende à la seule force de sa frénésie. Il est mort à la suite d'une transplantation de foie à Godley (Texas), le 18 Février 1995.
Part of the original rockabilly movement in the 1950s, singer/guitarist Johnny Carroll issued several oft-overlooked yet classic singles for the Decca label, including such titles as "Crazy, Crazy Lovin," "Wild, Wild Women," and "Hot Rocks." Although he never truly obtained substantial success stateside, European rockabilly audiences revered Carroll. After falling off the rock & roll radar shortly after his '50s singles, Carroll emerged once again in 1974. He immediately recorded a tribute to Gene Vincent, "Gene Vincent Rock" (also issued under the title "The Black Leather Rebel"), following it up three years later with the full-length Texabilly, as well as a few other releases during the '80s. On February 18, 1995, Carroll passed away due to liver failure, but his classic early recordings were honored a year later in the form of the 33-track compilation Rock Baby Rock It: 1955-1960.
