Sam Phillips and Sun Studio...

yeah.. the guy that recorded all of those great Sun Studio artists.... wikipedia article here:

Sam Phillips

discovered Howlin' Wolf... Elvis... Johnny Cash... heck, the man even recorded what many consider the first rock and roll song ever - "Rocket 88".. featuring Ike Turner on guitar...

Rocket 88 on You Tube

so during a recent walk downtown, Lisa and I went by his last studio (that I know of)... check it out.. it is one of my favorite buildings in town.. the problem is that I am unsure which side I like more...
