Arch Enemy - Carry The Cross

Not only Bihari was interested in the southern rhythm and blues, experiencing a real flowering. After the success of the first recordings of Muddy Waters, the Chess brothers realized what power the tunes from the Mississippi Delta had over the black working population, and without a shadow of a doubt, launched a frantic boogie-woogie performed by Jackie Brenston and the Ike Turner Orchestra. Rocket 88, which today is considered one of the prototypes of rock and roll, became the sales leader in American ghettos in the spring of 1951. This commercial and creative success was a gift of fate for Sam Phillips, who immediately left the radio and devoted himself completely to his studio.
