Blue Suede Shoes is a 1980 music documentary film directed by Curtis Clark and produced by Don Boyd with Penny Clark that combines archival film of early American rock 'n' roll pioneers of the 1950s (with footage of Bill Haley's 1957 British tour, an Eddie Cochran television appearance and late 1960s concert footage of Gene Vincent) and British singers Cliff Richard and Tommy Steele with material recorded at a 1979 rock 'n' roll revival weekender featuring bands and people following the scene (including Teddy Boys, motorcycle greasers and rockabilly adherents).[1]
