Courtesy of Dragon Street Records, Inc.CARROLL, JOHN LEWIS JOHNNY (1937–1995). John Lewis (Johnny) Carroll, rockabilly guitarist, composer, and singer, was born in Cleburne, Texas, on October 23, 1937.
He grew up in nearby Godley and spent much of his life on the family farm there. His surname was actually spelled Carrell, but the Decca label misspelled it as Carroll, and apparently Johnny used this spelling for the rest of his career. Carroll bought his first guitar at age nine with money he had earned by working as a water boy at a POW camp. His mother, who played the fiddle, taught him basic music skills.
By listening to the radio, he learned to play. Carroll later was introduced to rhythm and when a cousin in the jukebox business gave him some old 78 rpm records.
In the early 1950s he performed on KCLE radio in Cleburne.By 1955 he had formed his own high school band, the Moonlighters. His group sometimes shared the stage with the South's newest singing sensation, as they performed on the and the circuit. During a performance with Ferlin Husky, Carroll gained the attention of local radio operator Jack 'Tiger' Goldman, who helped him get a contract with Decca Records. In 1956 Carroll recorded for Decca in Nashville. During this two-day recording session he was encouraged to sing in a dark and husky voice, a trademark he carried throughout his career. At the session he recorded his own 'Crazy, Crazy Lovin' along with 'Hot Rock,' written by Goldman. With moderate sales, Carroll embarked on a series of tours.

Though panned by critics, the film later achieved cult status for its diverse and historic music performances. After a dispute with Goldman, Carroll left him and rejoined the Louisiana Hayride. He enlisted, co-producer of Big D Jamboree, as his new manager in 1958 and recorded two singles for Warner Brothers, including his biggest hit, 'Bandstand Doll.' In 1962 he recorded his last single for more than ten years.
Beginning in 1958 until the early 1970s, Carroll was music director for a series of nightclubs known as the. Originally opened in Fort Worth, the club also opened branches in other Texas cities. On May 6, 1960, Carroll married Sharon, a waitress at the Cellar. They had a son but divorced in 1966.

Filmed with local music talent in Dallas in 1956 and released in 1957, the movie, though panned by critics for its flimsy plot and low-budget production, has achieved cult status among fans of early Texas rock-and-roll. Other acts included Don Coats & the Bon-Aires, Cell Block 7, Preacher Smith & the Deacons, the 5 Stars, and Kay Wheeler who headlined the movie as the “Queen of Rock & Roll.” Copyright 1957 National Screen Service Corp., Courtesy of Dragon Street Records, Inc.In 1974, after leaving the nightclub business, Carroll returned to performing and recorded 'Black Leather Rebel' (also titled 'Gene Vincent Rock'), a tribute to singer and friend Gene Vincent.
It was the first of several projects that reignited Carroll's career Three years later he re-released three of his Decca singles, the success of which led to several tours across Europe, where he was a icon. In 1978 Carroll rekindled his 1950s rock-and-roll sound with the release of Texabilly, an album recorded on the Rollin' Rock label in Van Nuys, California, in a twenty-seven-hour marathon session. About this time he also teamed up with model and singer Judy Lindsey, and the two performed in clubs across the United States and in Europe.The city of Fort Worth proclaimed December 1, 1986, to be 'Johnny Carroll Day' in honor of Carroll's success in Europe and his role as an ambassador of good will for the city. By the 1990s he had completed eleven European tours and was a popular draw on the American music festival circuit. He died of liver failure in Dallas on February 18, 1995, and was buried in Godley, Texas. Bear Family Records released Rock Baby Rock It: 1955-1960, a compilation of Carroll's recordings, in 1996.

Andrew Rainnie, from Glasgow, who was dismissed from a job with John Lewis after posting comments on one of the directors' blog posts disagreeing with himA former John Lewis call centre worker told yesterday how he was fired – for disagreeing with one of the company’s directors in an online spat.Andrew Rainnie, 31, left a comment on a blog article written by Patrick Lewis, director of partnership services for the retail giant.Rainnie voiced his opinion after Mr Lewis claimed that “shared responsibility and shared reward” was behind the company’s success. Well, to the three Anonymouses:Anon #1 – As far as I am concerned I did not break my contract; the Social Media policy is part of the employee handbook, not the contract.
Also, I was not paid for the interview. A few year back John Lewis implemented a “hand book”. Many people have been advised by their own legal teams that “what John Lewis says, or writes in their books, does not constitute or overwrite any legislation”.The John Lewis View on this is that the handbook is an extension to your contract, which they constantly update with terrible terms.John Lewis is an absolute abomination of a company to work for, I am fully aware of many of the laws they have broken in the past.I cannot comment on this personal case, as I know not a thing about it other what is listed above. I worked at John Lewis and the best day of my life was getting my life back when I left, totally controlling and can’t take any criticism. The term partnership is a joke and so called partners aren’t treated as equals and are expected to perform tasks that well exceed job description and pay grade.
Pay is also crap its minimum wage plus the bonus which took me to £14,000 a year when store managers get between £80 to 90k a year. Andy street gets 500k per year not counting bonus and Charlie mayfield a +800k salary and a 1.2 million pound bonus figures taken from an internal John Lewis magazine. All in all a crap company to work for that requires your soul. As much as John Lewis is a backward company to work for, would it be fair for an employee who works for another company ( Might get perks from them as well) to get all the perks of a JL Partner i.e double reward for doing one job. If you want to receive JL benefits, why don’t you quit and join JL? You chose to work for another company and accepted the role with its terms. You cannot then try to change the rules to suit you!!JL is not a Partnership, it is controlled by their Head office in Victoria, by people who had never set a foot on the shopfloor to serve a customer.
Andy Street is as stupid as he looks and JL was soo much better before he joined. I worked for Teleperformance a few years back on the John Lewis contract. The managers, if you didn’t kiss their backsides, made you feel like a criminal for working there. Our contracts were modified without our knowledge. On my last week, I was working on Sunday and according to the rota, I was off the following day then back in on Tuesday. So it was a surprise when I was called by my mananger who snarled “Why aren’t you in? You’re supposed to be in!
You’re giving the company a bad name etc” As it turned out, my shift was changed late on the Sunday night and I was not informed whatsoever.We were encouraged to lie to customers as to the availability of stock in JL stores (“Keep the sale online, that’s what you’re getting paid for, if we don’t have it, no-one has it, it’s that simple”). Bribing customers with “goodwill gestures”.Eventually, when verbally abused by a customer who took me to account when a White Van Man 400 miles away (Working for Yodel, of course) – and let me stress this, this was an everyday occurance – I had enough and walked out.Good on you Mr Rainnie! The more this shambles of a call centre are taken apart the better.(Did I mention how my manager flirted with every female temp and spent more time making rollups on his desk than actually doing anything?). John Lewis are not all they are cracked up to be. They pay below the so called Living Wage but top it up with a bonus.
The total is only what the pay should be as someone above has said. Don’t believe all this rubbish about being partners in the company, in reality the employees have the same position as any other company. They are just using these terms like “partners” and “bonus” to make out they are a better company. It looks like their latest thing is to attack the pensions, they will be one of the worst to work for soon. Just read Animal Farm.that is John Lewis. ‘All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others’.Customer service is now not priority either, just keep flogging those partnership credit cards, and after that, they will find something else as an excuse not to give us a pay rise.
I have had no pay rise for over 3 years, and still not getting one this year.Shame on you, John Lewis. John Spedan Lewis will be turning in his grave. Customers, please keeping complaining about lack of staff, and lack of expertiseanother thing, we are now to be Jacks of all trades, and masters of none. We will soon be no better than anyone else on the high Street! I worked for them years ago. Now I go very occasionally to shop there as a customer.
I have to say I do find the staff all very friendly and helpful. It is in their interest to do so but they seem genuine.

However, if you don’t tow the company line as a “partner”, and it can be even down to the buttons that you wear on your suit, and the colour of shoes you wear, hell you know about it! The “goodwill” that we had years ago was taking the right royal p. Out of by some very snobbish, ungrateful and ghastly customers. They worked the system. They also used to come in about a minute before you were due to clock off and they would complain about NOTHING just to get a discount. I found any kind of different thinking was frowned upon, and if your face doesn’t fit, you will know it.
I would never ever work there again. It took two years of my life and many Saturdays I will never get back.
And everyone used to be obsessed with the bonus, which is the “hook” sorry to say. As for paying badly, I would also accord with that.

As an employee if you have any grievance, it should be settled with personal meeting with the official rather than to show your grievance by sending unofficial mail. I am associated with JL for the last 6 years or more by way of customer.
I once ordered for 2 pairs of jeans but when I received my lot it was of wrong size. I brought this fact before the John Lewis Customer Service here phone was attended by Mr Lucas (Employee).
He replied me in an absurd manner and I brought this fact before the CEO of the company. CEO charge sheet him and asked Why action can’t be taken against him. He replied his grievance in polite manner and later on he was forgiven by he brass.So in short it will be better to deal the matter politely rather than in harsh manner.
