Between 1950 and 1960, Sun Records founder Sam Phillips discovered and producedB.B. King, Howlin' Wolf, Ike Turner, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Charlie Rich, andRoy Orbison - artists who changed the way popular music was made.
With a staff of no more than one or two people, he did this from a small storefront studio in Memphis, Tennessee.
Others who made their first recordings at Sun include Rufus Thomas, Bobby Bland, Junior Parker, Little Milton, Conway Twitty, Charley Pride, and many more!
In 1952, after producing one of the biggest pre-rock 'n' roll hits, Jackie Brenston's 'Rocket 88', Sam Phillips launched Sun Records with one local release, and then folded the label for a year.
In 1953, he re-launched Sun, scored major hits with R&B, country, and rock 'n' roll artists, and created an identifiable Sun Sound along the way.
He continued to release singles on Sun until 1968.
