“Memphis will get all over you If you’re sensitive it’s like you know certain people can walk into Memphis and it’s like a lightning rod…Bam!–hits ‘em. If you think about the history of Memphis music , it’s not people from Memphis it’s people who came to Memphis.”

I’ve tried to include mostly Memphis songs, but my top two are from beyond the city limits. Here are my top 5, you can fill in the rest and enjoy them all as you cook, eat, and argue with your family.

5) Reigning Sound: I’m So Thankful
4) Big Star: Thank You friends*
3) Sam and Dave: I Thank You*
2) Neil Young: Pocahontas
1) William DeVaughn: Be Thankful For What You’ve Got
