Description by OLDIES.com:

Some of the greatest artists in the history of music got their starts at Sun Records. Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, and Roy Orbison are just some of the many who helped create the rock and rockabilly sounds Sun was renowned for. On these two discs you'll get fifty of the greatest Sun sessions that helped lay down the early roots of rock and roll - some of the masterworks included are "Blue Suede Shoes" by Carl Perkins, "I Walk The Line" by Johnny Cash, and "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On" by Jerry Lee Lewis. As a bonus, the 200-page book, "Sun Records, An Oral History", with a foreword by rock critic Dave Marsh is included FREE in this wooden box set.

You Know You Want It! Music Lover: from Gulfport, FL -- August, 27, 2017

Sure- you might have some of these songs in your collection. You might even have most of them. But if you don't order this set, you won't have the very cool genuine wooden box that slides open from the top. You won't have the colorful graphics - both front and back. And, more than likely, you won't have the 192-page book, "For The Record - Sun Records - An Oral History - Edited by Dave Marsh", which is a real treat. Chock full of interviews with many people involved with Sam Philips and Sun Records. The music speaks for itself. If it didn't, you wouldn't be reading this review by some unknown person here on Oldies.com.

So, there it is - the CDs are in my Sony 300 CD player and that cool wooden box is sittin' up on the shelf, lookin', well, cool. The book is in my bedroom where I do my reading. You know you want it! I did...and I got it!
