Arlie Neaville (a.k.a. Dean Carter) is an American gospel singer and songwriter who has been active in music since the early 1960s. For several years during the 1960s he recorded and performed as Dean Carter, specializing in rockabilly and soul influenced garage rock displayed in songs such as "Rebel Woman" and a version of "Jailhouse Rock", but in the early 1970s he switched to gospel, which has been his style ever since.

Neaville was born in Champaign, Illinois, and began playing rockabilly in the late 1950s. He recorded under his real name on the Ping label between in 1961 and on Fraternity Records in 1962–1963. In 1964, he began to record as Dean Carter on the Limelight label, where he released the single, *"Sixteen Tones" b/w "The Lucky One". That year, he and Arlie Miller, a member of his backing band, the Lucky Ones, started a home studio in Danville, Illinois. They also ran the Milky Way label, which released music by Carter and others. There, Carter recorded a string of singles: "Number One Girl" (1965), "The Rockin Bandit" (1965) and "Run Rabbit Run" (1967), as well as the record for which he is best known, "Jailhouse Rock" b/w "Rebel Woman" in 1967. Carter's version of "Jailhouse Rock", featured the odd sounds of walkie talkie beeps, overdriven guitars, augmented with a ukulele, accordion, dobro, and clarinet.
