[Night Hides Not]

Good thing my son didn't have that teacher. A few weeks after visiting Sun Studios in Memphis, his 7th grade drama teacher was talking about Elvis and "Blue Suede Shoes." When she said Elvis wrote it, my son corrected her, saying it was Carl Perkins who wrote the song.

After she googled it, she finally agreed with him.

It's amazing to me how many people think that songs Elvis covered were actually written by him. I can only think of three of his "big" hits that he wrote, and two of them were "mostly" written by Otis Blackwell [Don't Be Cruel and All Shook Up.] Love Me Tender is the only major one I know of that he claimed most of the credit for writing.

There was no google in those days.;)
