  • Interdisciplinary Lesson: “Hound Dog”
    INTERDISCIPLINARY LESSON: “HOUND DOG” OVERVIEW ESSENTIAL QUESTION How does the story of “Hound Dog” demonstrate music culture’s racial mixing as it differed from mainstream American life in the 1950s? OVERVIEW People: Big Mama Thornton and Elvis Presley The first version of “Hound Dog” was released in March 1953 by Willie Mae “Big Mama” Thornton, an African-American Rhythm and Blues singer from Alabama. With her larger- than-life personality and earthy vocal delivery, Thornton was one of the Rhythm and Blues performers who helped usher in the Rock and Roll era. “Hound Dog” was written specifically for Thornton by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, a white, Jewish songwriting team with a love for R&B music, a genre generally associated with black audiences. The recording was produced by Johnny Otis, the son of Greek immigrants who grew up in an African-American community and identified as black. The mixing between races did not reflect the norms of segregated 1950s American life, but behind the scenes in music culture, such mixing was possible. The recording became the biggest hit of Thornton’s career, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard R&B chart and staying there for seven weeks. In July 1956, Elvis Presley, a white singer from Memphis who as a teenager had developed a fascination with black music, recorded his own version of “Hound Dog” for RCA Records. Elvis combined elements of Country and Pop with R&B, ignoring racial classification in order to showcase the variety of genres he had absorbed growing up in the South. His recording of “Hound Dog” incorporated a fast tempo, prominent drumming, and a heightened vocal energy associated with the emerging Rock and Roll sound.

  • WDAM Radio's History of Elvis Presley
    Listeners Guide To WDAM Radio’s History of Elvis Presley This is the most comprehensive collection ever assembled of Elvis Presley’s “charted” hit singles, including the original versions of songs he covered, as well as other artists’ hit covers of songs first recorded by Elvis plus songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis! More than a decade in the making and an ongoing work-in-progress for the coming decades, this collection includes many WDAM Radio exclusives – songs you likely will not find anywhere else on this planet. Some of these, such as the original version of Muss I Denn (later recorded by Elvis as Wooden Heart) and Liebestraum No. 3 later recorded by Elvis as Today, Tomorrow And Forever) were provided by academicians, scholars, and collectors from cylinders or 78s known to be the only copies in the world. Once they heard about this WDAM Radio project, they graciously donated dubs for this archive – with the caveat that they would never be duplicated for commercial use and restricted only to musicologists and scholarly purposes. This collection is divided into four parts: (1) All of Elvis Presley’s charted U S singles hits in chronological order – (2) All of Elvis Presley’s charted U S and U K singles, the original versions of these songs by other artists, and hit versions by other artists of songs that Elvis Presley recorded first or had a cover hit – in chronological order, along with relevant parody/answer tunes – (3) Songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis Presley – mostly, but not all in chronological order – and (4) X-rated or “adult-themed” songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis Presley.

Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through With the rain in my shoes, searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain, in the cold Kentucky rain. Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men Sitting on a bench outside a general store They said "Yes, she's been here" But their memory wasn't clear. Was it yesterday? No, wait the day before. Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked, "Where you bound on such a cold, dark afternoon?" As we drove on through the rain, as he listened I explained And he left me with a prayer that I'd find you. Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through With the rain in my shoes, searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain, in the cold Kentucky rain.

  • All Shook Up
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Center REP Press Department 925.295.1413 [email protected] Center REPertory Company Presents All Shook Up Book by Joe DiPietro Inspired by and Featuring the Songs of Elvis Presley Musical Director Dolores Duran-Cefalu Directed and Choreographed by Robert Barry Fleming Press Night is September 8th at 7:30 pm Walnut Creek, CA, August 18, 2009––Center REPertory Company presents All Shook Up, from September 3 through October 10, 2009. Directed and Choreographed by Robert Barry Fleming and with Musical Direction by Dolores Duran-Cefalu, All Shook Up is the first production of Center REP’s 43rd subscription season. Press night is Tuesday, September 8th at 7:30 pm. All Shook Up is made possible by the generous support from Chevron, The Contra Costa Times and Diablo Regional Arts Association. ELVIS MEETS SHAKESPEARE. That is the unlikely premise of the 2005 Broadway hit All Shook Up, a musical based on the plot of William Shakespeare’s comedy Twelfth Night and told through the songs of Elvis Presley. All Shook Up comes to Walnut Creek’s Center REPertory Company in September. Artistic Director Michael Butler is certainly opening the 2009-10 season with a bang. Twenty-five of the King’s hits, including “Devil in Disguise,” “Heartbreak Hotel,” and, of course, “All Shook Up,” help tell a tale, set in the 1950s, of love, tolerance, and laugh-out-loud gender-bending disguises. “I think people will be surprised and completely delighted at how well these songs work as theatre music. They’re great story-telling songs,” says Butler, who is an Elvis fan himself.

  • The King of Rock 'N' Roll
    1 Leggi e ascolta il brano. Elvis Presley: The King of rock ‘n’ roll Elvis Presley was the first rock ‘n’ roll superstar. His nickname was ‘The King’ because he was the king of rock ‘n’ roll. He was born on 8th January, 1935 in the state of Mississippi. His parents were poor and he was an only child. When he was a teenager his passion was music: gospel, blues and country. His favourite singers were the country singer Hank Snow, Mario Lanza and Dean Martin. He was a great singer and a sensational dancer. He had black hair and blue eyes and he was very good-looking. Elvis’s first hits were ‘Heartbreak Hotel’, ‘Jailhouse Rock’ and ‘Blue Suede Shoes’. These songs are now rock ‘n’ roll classics. In his very successful career he had 21 number one hits in the USA and his music was popular all around the world. He was also the star of 33 films but he wasn’t a great actor and people remember him for his music. Tragically Elvis’s life was very short. He died at his home, Graceland, in Memphis, on 16th August, 1977. He was only 42 years old. Elvis is still very popular today. There are over 500 official Elvis Presley fan clubs all over the world. His fans include Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney and Elton John. His home, Graceland, is a top tourist attraction. Every year over half a million people visit it. And his music is still popular, too. A remix of his song ‘A little less conversation’ was number one in the charts in 2002, 25 years after his death.
