A
rockabilly singer who reportedly taught
Elvis Presley how to play the guitar, Lee Denson is one of rock's
little-known pioneers. Active between 1956-1965, Denson, who also recorded under
the name Jesse
James, is best-remembered for the stellar cast of musicians and vocalists
that he featured on his recordings, including
Eddie Cochran, Sam "The Man" Taylor,
Dorsey Burnette, and Kenny Burrell &
the Jazz Guitar Band. Two songs — "Mississippi Bridge" and "Sixteen States" —
featured the harmonies of Richard and Karen Carpenter, the only commercial
recording with Karen singing background Vocals. Denson had his greatest success
as a songwriter when
Elvis Presley recorded his hymn "Miracle of the Rosary".
Lee is deceased at 75 years, November 6 2007 in
Memphis (Tennessee).
