Early in the morning on June 1, 1953, five African American men boarded a van to make the 200-mile trip from Nashville to Memphis for a recording session at Sun Studios. One of the tracks cut that day, 'Just Walkin' in the Rain', would go on to become Sun Records' biggest record of the pre-Elvis era. It would, however, be the group's only hit. They were the Prisonaires, a vocal quintet who had honed their skills while inmates at the Tennessee State Penitentiary. John Dougan tells the story of the Prisonaires, their hit single, and the afterlife of this one remarkable song.
