One Night in Memphis

Description

The official and number one tribute to Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash! One Night in Memphis: Presley, Perkins, Lewis & Cash tributes a night in rock and roll history that still lives on today. On December 4th, 1956, Carl Perkins booked a recording session at Sam Phillip’s Sun Records studios in Memphis, TN. On the session as well was one of Sam Phillip’s latest acquisitions to his stable of acts, a young and cocky piano player from Ferriday, Louisiana by the name of Jerry Lee Lewis. Not too long after, Elvis Presley dropped by. Johnny Cash dropped in as well. A jam session then ensued and the rest as they say, is history. It’s a fascinating glimpse of rock and roll in its infancy and shows what these legends all shared in common; growing up in the south and singing gospel music in church. You can also hear a camaraderie between major music stars in their prime, something that is rare in today’s music business. “One Night in Memphis” was created in 2012 by John Mueller, well known for his long-running and successful number one tribute, “Winter Dance Party, tribute to Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper.” For more info, visit www.onenightinmemphis.com or www.wdpproductions.com.
