"Mystery Train" is now considered to be an "enduring classic". It was the first recording to make Elvis Presley a nationally known country music star. Black, who had success with the Bill Black Combo, once said to a visitor to his house in Memphis, as he pointed to a framed 78rpm Sun Record of "Mystery Train" on the wall, "Now there was a record." Presley's version was ranked the third most acclaimed song of 1955, by Acclaimed Music. It also appeared in Jim Jarmusch's 1989 independent film Mystery Train.
