Million Dollar Quartet is based on a true story of a historical event that took place between Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis. These four musicians joined together one day at a recording studio in Memphis in 1956 and created an impromptu band jam session which even though it was a private affair, became one of the worlds most talked about and famous collaborations of our time. Million Dollar Quartet features songs that were originally performed by the great musicians themselves such as Blue Suede Shoes, Hound Dog and Great balls of Fire – just to name a few.
