Author's Note

I'm not ashamed to admit that I would've been one of the many screaming girls outside the gates of Graceland.

He was the King, no doubt about it

[Rebecca Buller]

Yes, he was. I'm glad you enjoyed it:-)

he was my hero ...i had all his singles....my godparents used to buy them for me...when i was 6 in 1956, my parents bought me the single Hound Dog and Don't be Cruel on the flipside...i must have driven them crazy...just playing it for hours straight, flipping it over, over and over again.

nicely done here.

[Rebecca Buller]

I'm only 26 and I still listen to the old vinyl records. Those pops and cracks are nice:-)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

aren't they?

[Rebecca Buller]

My father was a big Elvis fan, so I listened to him growing up, I'm a big fan too. Very nice tribute to a great artist and legend.
