On this day in 1954, Sun Records released the first single by Elvis Presley, “That’s Alright (Mama)”.  Label owner Sam Philips said he’d searched for years for a singer who was white but sounded black.  

- And if you’ve ever heard Big Al singing as Coleman Young… you know that search continues. 

 

Have a great day and don’t forget… the deadline to submit your favorite local charity to receive thousands of dollars in The Suburban Collections “Great Charity Giveaway” is right around the corner!  Just click on any one of their ads on this site to enter. Good luck and I’ll see you back here Wednesday!
