NEW YORK, Dec. 1 /PRNewswire/ --
December 4th 2006 marks a very important day in music history. Fifty
years ago, on December 4th 1956, a coincidental gathering of Elvis
Presley, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis and Johnny Cash at the famous
Sun Studio in Memphis Tennessee, resulted in the world's first
superstar jam session and the making of the one and only Million
Dollar Quartet.
Although Jerry Lee Lewis
might be the last one standing, The Million Dollar Quartet
lives on in the 50th Anniversary Edition of The Complete
Million Dollar Quartet CD (Sony BMG Strategic Marketing
Group).
The 50th Anniversary Edition of
The Complete Million Dollar Quartet features 12 minutes of
previously unreleased music. This is the first time that the
historic recording session has been released in its entirety and in
the sequence in which it was originally recorded.
