"Memphis. Last resting place of Elvis and the Ancient Pharoahs."

Home of Elvis, SunRecords, and BillRuby of the DixieMafia.

Once the location of Victory Records, where Blind Joe recorded six songs in the 1930s.

Also the home of "Doctor Wade," the epideromancer who gave Reese his mysterious tattoo.

I-40 runs through it east-west, and I-55 runs through it north-south. ReeseBeulay says that Memphis thrived during the era of the 55 mile an hour speed limit, because everyone thought 55 was a good thing then. Those were the days when the music flowed from NewOrleans through Memphis into Chicago along I-55. He says that when they changed the speed limit, Memphis became a backwater.
