    The Million Dollar Quartet session at Sun

    Carl Perkins had booked the studio and Sam Phillips brought in his new signing Jerry Lee Lewis on piano. Elvis Presley, by then on RCA, dropped by, and Johnny Cash followed. Phillips left the tape running through an impromptu run of gospel and country songs. A Memphis Press-Scimitar piece gave the session its name.
