Rock and Soul from Memphis to Muscle Shoals

This week on American Routes, we talk to Barbara Sims about her time working at Sun Studios as a publicist and promoter, and the search for the next Elvis. Then we dig into the archives for classic interviews with Sun’s founder Sam Phillips, Elvis’ sidemen DJ Fontana and Scotty Moore and the Killer, Jerry Lee Lewis. Then we head to North Alabama for a conversation on love, God, and music with soul and disco siren Candi Staton.
