Let's walk through Elvis' life and the great songs he recorded and perhaps add some of your memories of Elvis along the way....
This is not a contest, this is a place to share Elvis memories, songs, pics and chat about Elvis' life.
Maybe someone met him in a grocery store, went to a concert, Graceland....

Bring the memories here....
Songs are welcome new or pre-records

As a reminder, this is a "family friendly" page, no cursing or vulgarity in the threads or songs, no x rated pics or graphics.

here is one of Elvis that was done by Jim Reeves first but they are both pretty...a sad memory of Elvis. just about a month before his death my nephew who was agent/promoter for the Bauchman Turner OVerdrive came in for a visit and he told me this."Buddy, i stopped in Las Vegas to see Elvis and went backstage and visited with him for about half hour and i tell you that if He doesnt get his life together he will be dead withing the next 6 months"..he told me Elvis looked soo bad and in bad health... Elvis died about a month later... soo sad.. He couldnt leave the drugs alone...

Elvis' (death) wasnt what it seemed to be, there was no overdose on drugs, or addiction to pills...there is a different story...that is written on my own challenge thread, "Let's share Elvis songs challenge"
