Elvis was stunning in his prime.

Elvis ended himself....I am a great fan but after reading the 2 huge biographies of him...I feel for him and yet am angry...He didn’t have to self destruct.

Seems like a reasonable request for an Internationally loved entertainer. Shame we don’t have the British system of knighthood = like Sir Elton John and Sir Paul McCartney.

Elvis was so much more;)

He did his duty...even though he had offbase housing(understandable) he stood every watch and ate what all ate....He was well liked.

Elvis preferred Gospel over everything....He had every recording made they say....That was his obsession.

I am a musician (a vocalist and chorister).

As part of my education, I had to take Politically Corrupted classes on Jazz and Rock.

Although they were taught by an experienced and knowledgeable man, the leftist bias was glaring.

The pervasive propaganda is that Elvis and other “whites” stole “black” music, and then got wealthy and famous off it.

While there is some truth to that, depending upon the specific person and song, it - as always with communistic thought - it is not the whole truth, and it ignores this obvious reality:

Elvis Presley had a once-in-a-lifetime vocal talent. Add to that his handsomeness and virility, and you have a formula for a unique superstar.

His music is not my favorite style, but his talent is extraordinary.

Elvis was a kind man to the needy...100’s of examples.

It seems the death of his mother was devastating and his sychophantic handlers, physicians etc., contributed to his drug dependency. Much like Michael Jackson. The old adage: ‘The Show Must Go On” means everything.

I went to see Elvis in Houston in the mid 50,s. I was so excited to hear him sing. When the first sound came out of his mouth, the crowd started to scream........ I never heard a single note..... I was furious and thought I should get my money back!

When some know-nothing starts sounding off about southerners hating blacks, you can always point to Elvis Aaron.
