On December 4, 1956, Elvis Presley walked into Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, and stumbled upon an impromptu jam session with Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Johnny Cash. The session was not planned, but it was a moment of raw musical energy that would become legendary. Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis played gospel songs, country standards, and rock and roll, with a friendly, competitive energy between them. The session was recorded by Sam Phillips, who recognized its value and had the foresight to keep the tapes rolling. The resulting recording, known as the "Million Dollar Quartet," has become one of the most iconic moments in music history.
