Aha - Move To Memphis

Can you ear, can you feel here - even if it's in 1972 - this special guitar touch ? If Ike Turner told something about it, here is the man who just played rock'n'roll for the first time, years before. But in this 1972's show, it's obviously another soul sound guitar's revolution ! Very interesting...

King Curtis & The Kingpins (Jerry Jemmott (bass), Bernard Purdie (drums), Cornell Dupree (guitar), Truman Thomas(organ), Warren Smith( percussions) I feel so honored to dig with you one of the baddest grooves in history! enjoy!

Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste [Music Video]

The only band that could make Booker T & The MG's sweat. "And now we need a pound of fat back drums..." King Curtis was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on March 6, 2000.

More vintage Buck Owens stuff here with the classic Buckaroo theme, Act Naturally and Chuck Berry's Memphis Tennesee. Act Naturally is written by Johnny Russell & Voni Morrison and was originally recorded by Buck Owens, whose version reached number 1 on the Billboard Country Singles chart in 1963. The song became really populair among all sorts of audiences worldwide and was even once covered by the Beatles (who were huge Buck Owens' fans) for their 1965 Help album. In 1989 Beatles drummer Ringo Starr and the legendary Buck Owens teamed up together to do a brand new version of the song. Act Naturally They're gonna put me in the movies They're gonna make a big star out of me We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely And all I have to do is act naturally [CHORUS] Well, I bet you I'm gonna be a big star Might win an Oscar you can never tell The movie's gonna make me a big star, 'Cause I can play the part so well Well, I hope you come and see me in the movie Then I'll know that you will plainly see The biggest fool that ever hit the big time And all I have to do is act naturally We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely Begging down upon his bended knee I'll play the part but I won't need rehearsing All I have to do is act naturally [CHORUS]

The band The Hold Steady was formed in 2000 after vocalist/guitarist Craig Finn moved to New York City from Minneapolis. They released their debut CD "Almost Killed Me" in 2004 and it's been nonstop for the band ever since. In July of 2008, The Hold Steady dropped their fourth CD and most heavily produced effort, "Stay Positive," under some pretty major buzz in the music industry.

Marc Cohn is a very gifted, underrated musician who deserves to be better known. Song trivia: This is about a "spiritual awakening" by Cohn while visiting Memphis in early 1991. Cohn was both spiritually and musically inspired by Memphis, particularly by Elvis and Graceland, W C Handy, and also having met the Reverend Al Green. He heard Rev Green preach at Full Gospel Tabernacle, and was moved by the Christian gospel message. Afterwards he traveled to Tunica Mississippi, to the Hollywood Cafe. That is where one particular well known song line comes from, when he spoke to Muriel the pianist there. He was invited to play the upright piano on the small stage. After realizing his talent for music, she asked him, "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?". He replied, "Ma'am, I am tonight!"

The 2008 Super Tuesday Tornado Outbreak was a deadly tornado outbreak affecting the Southern United States and the lower Ohio Valley from February 5--6, 2008. In total, 82 tornadoes were confirmed. The outbreak produced several destructive tornadoes in heavily populated areas, most notably in the Memphis metropolitan area, in Jackson, Tennessee, and the northeastern end of the Nashville metropolitan area. At least 58 people were killed in the outbreak by tornadoes across four states and 18 counties, with hundreds of others injured. The outbreak was the deadliest in the U.S. since the May 31, 1985 outbreak that killed 76 across Ohio and Pennsylvania (and also killed 12 in Ontario, Canada). It also was the deadliest tornado outbreak in both Tennessee and Kentucky since the 1974 Super Outbreak. In Arkansas, the 13 fatalities were the most since 25 were killed during the Benton, Arkansas Tornado Outbreak on March 1, 1997. In addition to the tornadoes, the same system produced significant straight-line wind damage, hail as large as softballs, major flooding, significant freezing rain, and heavy snow across many areas of eastern North America. Memphis area tornado A supercell thunderstorm moved across the Tennessee and Mississippi state boundary and produced a tornado at 5:32 PM CDT (2332 UTC) in Southaven, Mississippi near Southaven High School which was heavily damaged. The tornado quickly tracked across the line into southeastern Memphis. National Weather Service officials issued a tornado emergency (the first of five in the outbreak) across most of the Memphis region and the suburbs. It produced a swath of extensive damage over residential and commercial areas. WREG tower cameras showed the tornado tracking across the southeastern suburbs, particularly Southaven, Mississippi, with sightings of debris and power flashes. An eyewitness took pictures of the tornado. Hickory Ridge Mall suffered damage when portions of a wall and roof were destroyed. Major damage has also been reported in the Pleasant Ridge area of Germantown and the south end of Memphis. Damage was also reported at Memphis International Airport, where a hangar lost its roof, the FedEx freight terminal's fire station suffered roof damage (FedEx service was disrupted due to flight delays and closed roads from the tornado damage in surrounding areas; the FedEx superhub suffered minimal damage), airstair trucks were thrown 100 yards (91 m), and aircraft were moved around, including a Boeing 737 being moved one foot. The airport was locked down before the tornado hit; the airport weather station's reporting equipment recorded a gust of 73 knots (84 mph, 135 km/h). The Hardy Bottling Company facility was also damaged, which released 120,000 pounds (54,500 kg) of anhydrous ammonia into the atmosphere, although no public health impacts were reported. Electricity was also briefly cut to about 65,000 customers in Memphis. The National Weather Service rated the tornado as an EF2. Four people in the metropolitan area are confirmed dead. Three people were killed when a warehouse collapsed in the Hickory Hill section of Memphis. A spokesperson for the state's Emergency Management Agency also reported one fatality at the Hickory Ridge Mall, although the NWS office in Memphis has not confirmed such. 36 other people were injured in Shelby County by the tornadoes. One other death took place southeast of Hebron by a separate EF3 tornado.
