Rockabilly appears in the trade press as a market term
The earliest use of the word located in the World Radio History run of the trade press: a review describing a rockabilly warbler, and a column noting the presence of three rockabilly platters on the rhythm and blues list, two by Elvis Presley and one by Carl Perkins. This is the boundary of that archive search, not a claim about the first use of the word anywhere.
