After countless “begging”, SUN’s Marion Keisker FINALLY pleaded for Phillips to give “the guy with the sideburns” a chance.
The first thing Elvis, Scotty and Bill tried
on July 5, 1954 on SUN, it was “I Love You Because”, a very Country ballad by Leon Payne, and “Harbor Lights”, but obviously the session was going nowhere.
Sam was yawning.
“âŚuntil suddenly.” Scotty recounts, ââŚon a recording break and while Bill and I were having a soda, Elvis, out of nowhere, grabbed his guitar and started singing half-jokingly, half-seriously, Arthur’s “That’s All Right.” Big Boy’ Crudup.
Then Bill picked up the double bass, started playing, and I jumped on it right away. The door to the recording console was open.
Sam stuck his head in and said:
ââŚwhat are they doing?â, and we answered:
“âŚWe do not know!”.
He told us: ââŚwell, get together. Try to find a start to it and do it again.”
ALL THE MUSICAL STYLES THAT ELVIS HAD HEARD WERE EMPOWERED IN THAT SONG, TRANSFORMING IT INTO A NEW GENRE. HALF BY NEED, HALF BY UNCONSCIOUSNESS.
I WAS BORN FOR THE FIRST TIME,
THE MUSIC OF YOUNG PEOPLE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE…
AND THE WORLD CHANGED FOREVER.
