    An expanded version of an article originally published in Elvis Unlimited magazine: Las Vegas, Nevada, December 7th, 1976: After performing the “Hawaiian Wedding Song” Elvis tells the audience, “there’s something that I wanna do before I leave here, because we’ve never done this before…if you don’t mind, I know you’ve been sitting here for a long time, (but) I’d like to do a couple or three spiritual songs for you”. Elvis is planning an impromptu gospel medley of “You Better Run” and “Bosom Of Abraham”, and will sing the bass parts, whilst Charlie Hodge takes over lead vocal duties. Before he starts singing a member of the audi- ence calls out “you’re the king!” to which Elvis re- plies, “thank you sir, I’m fixing to sing about him”. This moment really sums up Elvis’ love of gospel music, and his attitude towards his own faith, and as it was recorded during one of the shows from his final Las Vegas season, it also provides a timely reminder that gospel music was an impor- tant influence on both Elvis’ music, and his stage performances, from his first recordings right up until his last. The Presley family moved to Memphis in 1948, and Elvis would attend the First Assembly of God Church with his mother Gladys. Gospel music was undoubtedly his first love, and both the singing and physical performance styles of gospel quartets such as The Blackwood Brothers and The Statesman Quartet were a huge influence on the young Elvis. James Blackwood re- called, “The story got out that he auditioned for The Blackwood Brothers and we told him he couldn’t sing, but this is entirely untrue.

  • Introducing Elvis Presley
    Chapter 1 Introducing Elvis Presley In This Chapter ▶ Outlining Elvis’s place in American history ▶ Summarizing Elvis’s life ▶ Tracking Elvis’s popularity from beginning to end n the one hand, Elvis Presley needs no introduction, because his name Oand face are recognized around the world as the ultimate celebrity. Imitators re-create his act; late-night comedians joke about him; cable chan- nels rerun his movies; and merchandisers exploit his image on everything from T-shirts to lamps. On the other hand, the reasons for his fame have become lost in the trappings of celebrity, especially for younger generations born after his death on August 16, 1977. For the original fans, who have remained loyal for over 50 years, Elvis earned his reputation as the King of Rock ’n’ Roll; for others, discovering why he deserved his fame and a place in American cultural history may be a revelation. In this chapter, I introduce you to Elvis Presley through the high points of his life and career, including his post-death popularity. This chapter sets up an extensive exploration of Elvis Presley — the cultural icon — that details the events of his life, explains the significance of his music, and contemplates his meaning to American pop culture. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL Identifying a Cultural Icon Almost everyone knows that Elvis Presley was a famous singer, but many people don’t fully understand what he contributed to popular music to earn his widespread fame. Elvis combined different types of music to form a style called rockabilly, which became one of the key sounds in rock ’n’ roll.
