Art Sutton was my second cousin, my Mom's first cousin, was my favorite relative, and got me my first alto sax. He was the one who encouraged my music career, and told me amazing stories of his life in music, and the Memphis music scene.

My parents, Leonard and Alice McEwen, worked at Olswanger music in the early 50s. They and Berl were also on WMC together.

Bought my first guitar from Art Sutton at Berl Olswanger's, many years ago.
Thanks for the nice bit of Memphis music history.
