Kenneth Parchman was an American rockabilly and country singer born on January 15, 1932, near Jackson, Tennessee. He passed away on June 2, 1999, in Madison, Tennessee. In 1956, Parchman recorded his first single for Sun Records, featuring "Love Crazy Baby" and "I Feel Like Rockin'." However, the release was halted by Sam Phillips for unknown reasons. Over the next two years, Parchman and his band recorded numerous tracks, but none were released. In 1957, he was approached by the owner of the newly established Jaxon label in Jackson, Tennessee, leading to the release of his songs "Treat Me Right" and "Don't You Know," the latter of which featured vocals from his brother Ronnie. A year later, he released a second single on Lu Records. In 1958 and 1959, Parchman returned to Sun Studios to record more songs, including one of his final recordings, Ray Harris' "Love Dump Baby."
