The Million Dollar Quartet is recognized as a landmark moment in the early days of rock and roll music. Unexpectedly and spontaneously, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee Lewis blended their voices together in the studio at Sun Records in Memphis, Tennessee, on December 4, 1956. For a few hours, they harmonized on popular tunes and gospel songs.
Fifty years after it happened, the event was made into a major Broadway musical that continues to tour America. What has been written about the episode is often contradictory, and even the artists themselves left different versions of their roles in it. Steven K. Rogstad has written the very first historical analysis of the event and exposes the challenges of using oral testimony when recapturing the past for posterity. Order your signed copy today!
