Atomicat Records (ACCD113) 70 Years of The Sun Sound Volume 01 is the first tribute to Florence, Alabama-bred Samuel (Sam) Cornelius Phillips. The album looks at his labels; Sun, Flip, and Phillips International, with the spotlight being shone upon the Southern-bred Caucasian rockers." On 3 January 1950, Phillips opened the Memphis Recording Service at 706 Union Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee, and two years later in February 1952, the Sun Record Company was formed. In the summer of 1958, Phillips brought property on 639 Madison Avenue in Memphis a few blocks from his old studio because the original studio outgrew its Union Avenue location. The Sam Phillips Recording Service 639 Madison Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee, opened in 1960. Phillips in 1961 through to 1964 opened a studio in Nashville located in the Cumberland Lodge building. Atomicat (ACCD113) 70 Years Of The Sun Sound Volume 01 "The Rockers" looks at the 70-year history of Phillips labels. The album by design does not feature the household names which are catered for on numerous other compilations. The album looks at the artists who had often one release or faded from public view but left behind a musical legacy. The album is in chronological year order from 1954 through to 1963, with the recordings shuffled around to balance the sound and style, and the concept is focused upon titles released on 78 and 45 RPM and includes some album tracks.
