Timeline
York died on January 26, 2014, in Redington Shores, Florida, after a long bout with degenerative brain disease. He was 78.
By the early 1970s, York had retired from performing to concentrate on his Jewel Records imprint/studio full-time. Jewel continued to operate out of Cincinnati throughout the 1980s and 1990s, and into the 21st century. He continued to play music. After selling the Jewel Recording Studio in 2008, York and his family moved to Florida.
By the 1960s, York had returned to bluegrass and turned towards country music. In 1961, he started building a studio in his garage.
Later in 1959, Pat Nelson rented the King studio for an independent session intended for his PJ label. York recorded a single, with an up-tempo version of instrumental "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain" on one side, re-titled "Red Rooster", and Marty Robbins' composition, "Sugaree", on the other side. In 1959, "Sugaree" reached No. 77 on the Billboard Hot 100. Soon, York toured with Dick Clark with a sellout appearance at the Hollywood Bowl. York and the Cajuns opened the show.
By 1958, York had assembled a band, the Cajuns, which consisted of York on vocals and guitar, Bill Lanham on bass, saxophone player Jimmy Risch, John Bower on piano, and Rick Lundy on drums. In 1959, the group backed Jackie Shannon (later known as Jackie DeShannon) on "Just Another Lie". The B-side, "Cajun Blues", was an instrumental by the Cajuns, and recorded for Fraternity. In 1959, they also recorded "Just Another Lie", also for Fraternity.
In 1952, York's family moved to the Over-the-Rhine area of Cincinnati, Ohio. Within a few weeks, his father died, and York took a kitchen job at Walt's Restaurant. As a result, he never finished high school. York later became an office boy in a stockbroker firm.
York listened to the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday nights and to the Mid-Day Merry-Go-Round and Cas Walker programs from Knoxville radio. A 1951 concert appearance by Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys inspired him. York's earliest idols were bluegrass artists: Jimmie Skinner, Lester Flatt and Scruggs.
Charles Edward "Rusty" York (May 24, 1935 – January 26, 2014) was an American musician and singer, and member of the Rockabilly Hall of Fame. He is probably best known for his rockabilly song "Sugaree".
