1998′s The Memphis Sun Recordings features new recordings of some of Johnny Rivers’ greatest hits, as well as versions of classics by Sun Records artists. Songs like “Mountain of Love,” “Poor Side of Town,” and “Memphis” sound natural next to “That’s Alright Mama,” “Matchbox,” and “Honey Don’t,” resulting in an enjoyable collection that nods to Rivers’ own work as well as his influences. – Heather Phares
