Rufus Thomas may not be a household name, but he is widely regarded as the patriarch of Memphis R&B, and his music influenced three generations. Matthew Ruddick reveals the amazing life and career of Thomas, and examines the social fabric of the city of Memphis, analyzing the factors behind the array of talent that appeared in the late 1950s.
