January 2008

Another landmark icon of Memphis - this is the recording studio that gave stars like Elvis, Johhny Cash, Roy Orbison and Jerry Lee Lewis their breaks.

When young Elvis walked in and asked to sing they asked him what he sounded like and he replied "I don't sound like nobody...."

Elvis then blew them away with a song called "My Happiness" and the rest as they say is history....
