Under the guidance of founder Sam Philips, Sun Records also gave artists like B.B. King, Johnny Cash, and Carl Perkins their big breaks when no other label would. In this lecture/concert, the lecturer will tell the stories of Sun Records’ biggest artists and perform some of their most memorable hits. Presenter, Dr. Tom Rizzuto, teacher of The History of Rock & Roll at Molloy College
