Phillips.Compilation producers: Roger Sermon, Mikael Jorgensen.Engineers include: Sam C. Phillips.Includes liner notes by Peter Guralnick.Originally released as 1975's THE SUN SESSIONS, SUNRISE is a two-disc compilation of early Elvis Presley material that showcases his work at Sam Phillips' Sun Studios. Here, one can hear the seeds of rock and roll being sown by this son of the South whose extraordinary range belied the fact that he was a self-taught musician. Presley's musical loves are apparent: Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup ("That's All Right"), bluegrass legend Bill Monroe ("Blue Moon Of Kentucky") and R&B artists Junior Parker ("Mystery Train") and Roy Brown ("Good Rockin' Tonight"). The team of guitarist Scotty Moore and bass player Bill Black provided an excellent base for Presley's vocals which oozed like honey on slower fare such as "Blue Moon" and "Harbor Lights" and snarled when tackling faster material such as "Just Because." SUNRISE now includes a number of previously unreleased live and studio acetates of covers ranging from a melancholic take on Jimmy Wakely's "It Wouldn't Be The Same Without You" to spirited readings of songs more closely associated with Big Joe Turner ("Shake, Rattle & Roll") and Laverne Baker ("Tweedle Dee").
