The King gave so much pleasure to so many, many people. Without him, I wonder whether music as we know it today would have evolved in quite the same way? I wonder how many 'stars' from today's music industry will be remembered and respected so long after they are no longer with us?
I remember only too well the day that Elvis died. I came home from school to find mum in tears - he was her idol. Elvis was, and in many ways still is, a musical phenomena.
