Memphis - Sun Studios - The Birthplace of Rock ‘n’ Roll

Memphis sightseeing, attractions and online travel guide

Sun Studios is the place where Sam Philips created his Rockabilly dynasty with Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis. A tour of the studio consists of two parts; First of all there is a thirty-minute tour of the facility itself, during which the history of this legendary place is explained with the help of pictures, music and memorabilia. The second part is a self-guided tour of the gallery, which contains photos and artwork from the halcyon days of the burgeoning rock n roll era. Of course there is also a gift shop where you can pick up souvenirs including records and CDs.
