Sun Records
Place through the tumultuous early days of the civil rights movement in Memphis, Sun Records informs the story of less than the arrival of rock'n' roll. Guided by Sam Phillips, youthful musicians such as Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis mixed the styles of hillbilly country using all the 1950s R&B sound generated by artists like Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Fats Domino and Iketurner, and changed the course of music forever. The series chronicles the artists' jarring and surprising meteoric rise to popularity from the face of unrest and sweeping influence.
