Elvis was from the Debil according to my parents. Along with just about every other non-Country musician in the 20th Century
Ya.....I remember watching a documentary on him a long time ago. When he did his infamous swivelling of the hips on the Ed Sullivan show, it interviewed some parents a few days later and it was hilarious to hear one mother say (in very stern words): "..I saw him on the television.....swivelling his hips. And in our Parent-Teacher meetings, we felt that he should not be on television!"
I wonder how many of these people who thought Elvis was the spaw of Satan, lived to see the likes of Iron Maiden, Ozzie Osborne, Van Halen, etc. Compared to them, a little swivelling of the hips didn't hurt no one or nuthin.
Well, I am an Elvis fan. Not a crazy one, but I thought he was absolutely gorgeous when he was younger....and man, he had a voice like no one else.........Anyway, I came across a beautiful video of him and Lisa Marie doing a song together, that I think is most appropriate for this thread:
