Episode: 7/25/25 Steven Rogstad- "The Million Dollar Quartet"
Description: We reconnect with local historian Steven Rogstad about his latest book "The Million Dollar Quartet and the Challenges of Oral Testimony." The title refers to four legendary musicians- Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis- who converged on a Sun Records studio in Memphis, Tennessee in 1956 for what turned out to be a spontaneous jam session .... some of which was recorded and ultimately shared with the world. In the book, Rogstad seeks to gain some clarity on what exactly happened on that memorable occasion- and how a serious historian goes about such a task.
