“Elvis came over to our house more than any of the other musicians — we saw him all the time, even after Sam sold his contract and Elvis was a superstar! Most of the time, he`d come over after midnight, knock on the door, and maybe have 12 or 15 people with him. No matter what time it was, my mother would always say, "Sure, come on in, Elvis!" And then she’d wake us and say, "Boys, Elvis is here. Do you want to get up?" We`d say, "Yep, probably so, Mom!"
How cool was that? You know, I think Jerry and I never got in any real trouble because we were in the middle of it all the time. For us, that was normal.” - Knox Phillips

“At Sun, Sam Phillips was always wanting to hear something different, and back then I could just go away and think of something different to record overnight." - Billy “The Kid” Emerson
Our thoughts go out to the Emerson family.
Billy was certainly an incredibly different “Red Hot” talent, and a special friend to our family.
We will keep your soul rockin’ down here 🎶
We were honored to have Spooner Oldham drop by and add a little magic to our session yesterday.
Happy birthday to the King of Rock N’ Roll @elvis ! We love this photo of him and the lovely Becky Phillips. He would often drop in after midnight to hang with Sam and the family. #elvis #sunrecords #samphillips
Happy 100th birthday Mr. Phillips 🖤#samphillipsrecording #sunrecords #rocknroll #legend
"I know that Jerry Lee Lewis, and I think the people ought to know this, and this takes nothing away from anybody, with all the misfortune and this guy has had some unfortunate things happen as I know most of you know, ah, but I still say that he probably, and I think it all stems from that intuitive thing about religion and fervor of the Holy Ghost in us all, in some way that we may not even know about, maybe it doesn`t have anything to do with the Bible, but maybe it does, but Jerry Lee Lewis will go down in the history of this business as one, so far as I`m concerned, as one of the most talented people that I ever worked with. " - Sam Phillips
A force has left the planet and joined a cosmic band of brothers.
Rock on Killer.....Rock On.
