Thats Alright, Elvis
When Elvis Presley showed up at Sam Phillips's Memphis-based Sun Records studio, Sam asked Scotty Moore, a guitarist who worked with a local band called the Starlite Wranglers, to help make him into a record star. Moore didn't know what to make of Elvis, but when they started to jam, he realized that this teenager did have something special.
