Music producer Sam Phillips and his landmark studio, Sun Records,
hold a unique place in the history of rock 'n' roll - by many
accounts, before Phillips recorded 'Rocket 88' by Jackie Brenston
and his Delta Cats in 1951, rock 'n' roll as we know it didn't even
exist. Phillips is simultaneously hailed as the man who discovered
Elvis Presley and derided as the man who sold the same artist to
RCA for a paltry $35,000. The list of musical legends that passed
through the doors of Sun Records is simply astounding, including BB
King, Ike Turner, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Jerry Lee Lewis and
more. SUN KING strips away the glossy veneer of legend around the
Phillips story - which, like his signature sound, was much the
result of his own careful crafting - to reveal a man who, from a
very young age, heard a musical sound that no one else heard.
Complete with a full Sun Records discography, 'Sun King' is an
indispensable document in the history of rock music.
