Official Sun Records! Every sale directly benefits the storied Memphis, Tennessee record label. 

This design features a stunning colorized photo of Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash, gathered around a piano in the Sun Records studio. Their names are at the bottom. The "Rising Sun" Records logo with the rooster is featured at the bottom. 

It was an early December evening in 1956 when, completely by chance, four Sun Records artists walked into a room and had an impromptu jam. Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley played a number of songs together, casually recorded by Sun Records' founder Sam Phillips, and then parted ways into the night.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime crossing of future greats. Elvis' stratospheric career was just taking off. Johnny Cash was riding high in his first hit single "Cry! Cry! Cry!". Jerry Lee Lewis was still days away from releasing his own first Sun single.

It would take well over a decade before even part of the recordings were found & released, and another handful of years to find the rest of the session.
