Memphis, Tennessee
30 June. Nutbush City Limits
Today I started with 90 minutes by the pool. It was, as ever, hot, but when the cloud came over I decided I wasn't prepared to put up with the heat unless there was sun!! So I went to the aptly named Sun recording studios, within a mile of the hotel. This is reputedly the birthplace of rock and roll, as well as being used by blues artists. The list is like a roll call of music legends - Elvis, B B king, Howlin' Wolf, Roy Orbison...
