Travis, who started playing in Memphis as a child billed as "Little Travis Wammack," recalls the time he borrowed Carl Perkins's guitar, which was almost too big for him. He also talks about his songwriting and how both Little Richard and Tom Jones were eager to cut his song "Greenwood, Mississippi." Travis explains some of his technical innovations including the use of a "borrowed" drive-in speaker on his hit instrumental "Scratchy."</p>
