Description:	An event like it had never happened before. The probability of it ever occurring again remains slim to none. It was a brief episode in the origins of rock and roll music that has achieved mythical proportions and inspired a major Broadway musical that continues to tour the United States to large audiences. Some events occur as a result of a collision of unforeseen or spontaneous circumstances, which preclude them from being repeated or chronicled. When something fun or exciting happens extemporaneously, the people involved rarely notice that what is taking place may be significant or worthy of remembrance. What they do recall afterwards - especially if it has been clothed in historical significance - is often filtered through the distorted lens of time and influenced by their role in it. This story is about such an occurrence, when four young recording artists - Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley - grouped around a piano and sang themselves into music history.
