3 Disc From the legendary label that launched the careers of Elvis, Johnny Cash And Jerry Lee Lewis and helped create Rock ‘n’ Roll.
The Sun Records Story documents in words, music and pictures the fascinating story of the meteoric rise of a small independent Memphis records label from its roots in blues and country to ground-breaking rock 'n' roll recordings.
Major artists whose careers began at Sun include Elvis Presley, Howlin' Wolf, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Roy Orbison.
Presented across three carefully themed and sequenced discs, the 94 tracks included in this comprehensive anthology chronicle the fortunes of this legendary label.
The accompanying 64-page booklet is lavishly illustrated with photos of the artists, evocative period shots, in addition to a concise note on each track.
Housed in an attractive compact box, this all-embracing anthology is a must for any fan of the Sun label or indeed for anyone interested in the evolution of rock 'n' roll and popular music as we know it today.
