It was an ordinary day in December, 1956, in Sun Studios Tennessee, when four musical legends had a chance meeting that later influenced the entire musical world. On this day Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash recorded together for the first and last time.
The four musicians spent hours playing music, competing with each other, comparing riffs and making a beautiful racket that was some of the best music you’ll ever hear.
Featuring James Blundell, special guests Nick Barker, Dave Larkin, introducing Ezra Lee and The Sun Studio Trio. The Ultimate Jam Session tells the remarkable story of this day and the musicians who made it unique. It went down in history as ‘The Day the Music Lived’. Songs include: Ghost Riders In The Sky, Blue Suede Shoes, Heartbreak Hotel, Great Balls Of Fire, Folsom Prison Blues, See You Later Alligator and many more hits....
