McVoy was cousin to the younger Jerry Lee Lewis.
McVoy got hooked on boogie-woogie while in New York, which he subsequently brought back to Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
[1] Jerry Lee Lewis would visit his older cousin and get him to show him things on the piano.
McVoy recorded a number of other sides at Sun in 1957 and 1958, most of which have remained unissued.
He subsequently went back to Hi as pianist with The Bill Black Combo, but quit in the mid-1960s and returned to the construction industry, forming his own company Carmack Construction.
