Focusing on Sun boss Sam Phillips' four top artists -- Elvis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Jerry Lee Lewis -- this hits package takes in some of the most important sides from the first days of rock & roll.

A fine introduction to one of the most important labels in popular music. ~ Stephen Cook, Rovi
