We had such a great show as we reminisced about Elvis Presley on the 40th anniversary of his passing.
We thank our special guest, Chris MacDonald, and talked about performances of Memories of Elvis and the Elvis film.
We featured and talked about the music from Elvis Presley including:
- Music from the 50s
- His TV appearances
- The movies
- 68 Special with the Black Leather
- As well as the 70s when he went on tour.
We also discussed the movie Elvis, directed by Baz Luhrmann. The film follows the life of rock and roll icon, singer, and actor Elvis Presley told from the perspective of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker.
It stars Austin Butler in the title role with Tom Hanks as Colonel Parker.
