Perhaps it was in that summer of '54, when...
...a shy, 19 year old truck driver and wannabe singer named Elvis Aaron Presley was a shy, 19 year old truck driver and wannabe singer named Elvis Aaron Presley was rehearsing in a studio in Memphis. He was trying to come up with a new sound that teenagers like him could relate to. Suddenly, in a flash of inspiration, he took a popular blues number called 'That's All Right (Mama)'. sped it up, added some raunch - and invented Rock'n'Roll!
Eighteen months later Elvis was the biggest star the world would ever see. 'Heartbreak Hotel', 'Blue Suede Shoes', 'All Shook up' - as hit followed hit Elvis Presley blazed a trail that many more eagerly followed, from Jerry Lee Lewis,
Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly to The Beatles and beyond. But none of them - then or now - ever came close to capturing the sheer charisma and magic of the man they called the 'King'.
The King Lives On
He maybe gone, taken in 1977 at the tragically early age of 42, but his music and legacy will live forever.
