When in Memphis you just have to stop by Sun Records where Elvis made his first recording. See photo
as it is today, much the same as it was back in the late 1950's.
Above is the very famous photo hanging on the wall of Sun Studio in Memphis of some real hot shots...Jerry
Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash & Elvis Presley. This was taken in the early years.
