Good Rockin' Tonight Full Description

In the early 1950s, Memphis, Tennessee was an afterthought in the world of commercial recording, then dominated by studios in New York and Los Angeles. This situation was radically altered in 1953, when Elvis Presley walked into the city's Sun Studios, encountered producer Sam Phillips, and subsequently developed and recorded the first rock& roll single, That's All Right. The story of how this epoch-making event came about, the musical alchemy that led to it, and its aftermath, is meticulously assembled by Colin Escott and Martin Hawkins in their history of the record label, GOOD ROCKIN' TONIGHT. With much fascinating background information and impeccable scholarship, they reconstruct the birth pangs of rock& roll with its attendant cast of characters, including Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and of course Sam Phillips himself. In presenting such momentous events as a jam session featuring Presley, Lewis, and Carl Perkins, and the recording of Presley's first single and his subsequent first interview, the authors humanize and demystify a story that's often caught up in its own mythology.
