Elvis, the legend

What it takes to be a legend? What is a legend? In music, in arts...
A legend is a person, a human that puts his entire life to create music. Not for food, or money, but for passion and love. And so far, to be a legend you need to be dead. Ha.

Elvis Presley, a good looking american boy, a guitar player and a great singer.

And so on...

Born in Tupelo, Mississippi in 1935, Presley and his family then moved to Memphis, Tennessee, when he was 13 years old. His music career began there in 1954, when he started to work with Sam Phillips, the owner of Sun Records. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was an early popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues.

He was not only a musician, he was an actor and a soldier for US Army.

But unfortunately, as a good martyr, a rocker, and a Legend, he died young. In 1977 after a terrible health deteroration, he died before a start of a new tour.




There's a version of "Are you lonesome tonight" live, where he laughs a lot. But that I'll upload it later
