Elvis Presleys' first album had more energy and more enthusiam than any other album at the time - when it was released it just blew everything else out. It changed the whole landscape of music

It's really funny, I think to myself... I've got my same guitar and amp, it's just a bigger room now! Some things don't change.

I put a metronome up to all the songs, and I tried to really keep it true to the original tempos.

Don't be afraid to take liberties with this music. Try and put some of yourself into it.

I basically sat down for a month, with all the Sun stuff I could find and just picked out my favorites. I didn't think that they were indicative of '54 to '57, although I tried to stay within that period.

To keep creating something with this type of music, you have to take it out of the box.

... so much of what we do now started in 1954 at Sun Records in Memphis Tennessee ... those guys were inventing that stuff (Rock & Roll) ... you can really tell on some tracks ... they were actually afraid at times of what they were playing. But Rock & Roll definitely didn't come before that time; it started right there
