May 9: Tour of Sun Studios in Memphis





Do you remember these?

It was really Marion Kiesler that discovered Elvis.  Sam Phillips was not there the day Elvis went in to cut his first record, but she was and she was impressed.  It took over a year for her to connect Elvis and Sam and the rest is history.

Just one of the fascinating stories that came out of the tour.
Sam sure changed their lives.
