Tres reis van fer fortuna a Memphis, Tennessee: Mr. B.B. King, Reis del Blues, Johnny Cash, Rei del Country, i el gran Elvis Presley, Rei del Rock 'n' roll. Però el bagatge musical de la ciutat no s'acaba aquí.

Amb població majoritàriament afroamericana, el blues va tenir una forta implantació i la cantera d'artistes va ser inesgotable: Memphis Minnie, Rufus Thomas, Howlin' Wolf, Junior Parker, Memphis Slim... A més, a meitats dels anys 40 va arribar a la ciutat Sam Phillips, un jove del sud enamorat de la música, que va fundar l'any 52 la mítica discogràfica Sun Records. Aviat naixeria el rock 'n' roll.

L'agitació no es va aturar durant els 60. La música negra, en paral·lel a la reivindicació pels drets civils dels afroamericans, també vol sortir del gueto. La resposta és el soul, una febre fresca i vital que a Memphis es propagarà gràcies a Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Carla Thomas, Al Green, Isaac Hayes i molts altres, que despleguen el seu talent als segells locals, Stax Records sobretot. 

Descobriu l'ànima del sud i escolteu-la a la nostra llista d'Spotify. Memphis us espera!
