Description

It's December fourth, and on this day in 1956… Elvis Presley dropped by Sun Studio in Memphis, where Carl Perkins was in the middle of a recording session. What followed became one of the most legendary moments in rock and roll history. Elvis joined Carl and Jerry Lee Lewis for an impromptu jam session, and Sam Phillips had the foresight to roll tape. Later dubbed the “Million Dollar Quartet,” this spontaneous gathering captured the raw energy of three future legends at the dawn of their powers.
