Elvis by the Presleys CBS News promotion.

It's been out for a while now but the CBS News website is still carrying
promotion for it this week:

Elvis Presley was an icon who is still, 28 years after his death, loved by
millions. While many admired him, few really knew him.

The woman who may have known him best was his ex-wife Priscilla Presley. She
shares her memories in a new CBS special called "Elvis By The Presleys".

In the special, Priscilla and Lisa Marie speak with unguarded candor about
their lives with the legendary Elvis Presley and offer an intimate look at
their family and private life.

"I'm a very shy person. My daughter and I don't do a lot of interviews, but
we felt there was a whole new generation of people who were discovering
Elvis and his music," Priscilla Presley tells The Early Show in a
pre-interview. "There are many books and stories that have been written
about him, but there are still so many questions that needed to be answered,
so we figured it was time to tell our story. We are sharing some very
intimate and personal things, but I really wanted to show the definitive
Elvis, warts and all."

Rare interviews with Elvis' first cousin, Patsy Presley Geranen, and
Priscilla's parents, Ann and Paul Beaulieu, are also featured.

"My mom is 79, my dad is 80," Priscilla Presley notes. "I felt they had so
much to add, and we didn't want them to pass on and feel we let the
opportunity go. We knew from the very beginning that this was going to be
difficult."

Vintage, never-before-seen performance footage will be interwoven with
photographs from the Presley Estate archives and press coverage of Elvis
over the years. Private home movies of the Presley family illustrate and
illuminate his story with vivid detail, honest insight and great warmth.

Different aspects of Elvis' life, including his tours, his time in Hollywood
and his home life, are depicted with the insight that only his family can
bring. His career ups and downs, his kindness and generosity and his human
frailties are all brought to light as well as a reflection on his place in
entertainment history and his enduring legacy.

Stay tuned for Priscilla Presley's inteview Thursday morning.

You can see the special "Elvis By The Presleys" Friday night at 8:00 p.m./ET
7:00 p.m./CT, on CBS. This week, a companion book and CD, with the same
name will also be released.

Baptist Hospital - "And the walls come tumbling down."

Following is a press release from Memphis Bioworks Foundation regarding the
demolition of Baptist Hospital, where Elvis was treated on several
occasions, where the official prounouncement of his passing occurred and
where his daughter Lisa Marie was born.

Memphis Bioworks Foundation Announces Date of Baptist Main Tower Demolition

The Memphis Bioworks Foundation has announced that the implosion of the main
tower of the Baptist Hospital on Union Avenue will occur on November 6,
2005, at 6:30 a.m.

The implosion of the 924,000-square-foot tower is part of the Foundation's
second phase of demolition as it makes way for construction of the
UT-Baptist Research Park. The research park will ultimately consist of 1.2
million square feet of laboratory, research, education and business
development space located on a 10-acre campus in the heart of the Memphis
Medical District. The new campus will integrate research, teaching and
biomedical development.
The first phase consisted of the removal of the four-story Service building
in January of this year. The eight-story Interns' Residence and the 10-story
Physicians and Surgeons buildings were then imploded in May.

"Once the main tower has been cleared away, we'll be able to begin work on
the centerpiece of our infrastructure development for the city's biosciences
- the UT-Baptist Research Park," said Dr. Steven J. Bares, Executive
Director and President of the Memphis Bioworks Foundation. "We now will be
able to build highly specialized facilities for Memphis' growing bioscience
community, thereby attracting new companies and further boosting the
economic growth of the region."

Bares added that the clean up and debris removal process is expected to be
finished in about 11 months.

The completion of the UT-Baptist Research Park is estimated to take ten
years, and will be completed in six phases. The Foundation is executing a
business plan that is leveraging Memphis' unique assets to fulfill the
nation's need for an urban biotech research park. When completed, the entire
development will provide $250 million in annual salaries for 5,000 new jobs
and $2 billion in annual economic impact.

Memphis Bioworks Foundation, a not-for-profit organization, was formed in
early 2001 to establish the Memphis region as an internationally recognized
center for biomedical technology. Baptist Memorial Health Care donated its
property in the Medical Center to the Foundation for the site of its
research park, the focal point of the biomedical and economic development.
The research park, which will include an incubation program to develop new
businesses in biotechnology, will be the centerpiece of a larger biomedical
research and development center.

Elvis's cousin and The Jordanaires ready to rock "Heartbreak Hotel".

His name is Presley, he has a distinctive American accent - and he's
performing in Wales. But before you start thinking Elvis is still alive
after all, it's not The King taking to the stage. It's the next best thing -
his cousin Jerry Presley. And one of the venues he will be appearing at is
the Heartbreak Hotel.

Jerry is the first male member of the Presley family to visit the UK. He
flew into London last night ahead of the second Porthcawl Elvis Festival,
which opens tomorrow. Jerry will be performing five tribute concerts to his
iconic cousin during the festival weekend. He decided to travel to Wales
from his home in Kansas City for the three-day event after learning about it
from the owners of London's Elvisly Yours, which sells Elvis memorabilia.

'The festival's a great idea - it's a good opportunity for fans to hear more
about Elvis and his music,' said Jerry, who possesses the unmistakable
Presley voice.

The festival will feature Elvis tribute artists from all over the world,
including Mario Kombou, recently crowned in Memphis World Champion Elvis
tribute.

'There are a lot of good tribute artists out there,' said Jerry, whose
great-grandfather was the brother of Elvis's great-grandfather. 'It's
amazing that 27 years after his death his popularity continues to grow - you
can't say that about any other person. He was The King - there will never be
another Elvis Presley.'

Jerry believes Elvis, who died on August 16, 1977, would be a little bemused
with his iconic status if he were still alive.

'He never liked being called The King, but as far as the phenomenon of his
popularity is concerned, he would give credit to all his fans.'

While millions of people loved Elvis's public persona as the music and film
legend, Jerry knew the 'real' Elvis.

'He was a typical, everyday, normal human being,' said Jerry. 'He loved to
have fun - he was a big joker.'

Jerry does not see much of Elvis's family. 'I don't see Priscilla or
Lisa-Marie too often as they are in another part of the country.'

Jerry has a busy work schedule and stages scores of shows throughout America
every year.

'I get a very positive reaction from Elvis's fans,' he said. 'I try to pay
tribute to him in a first-class way. I try to keep the shows classy -
nothing cheesy.'

Jerry travels with a 16-piece band, The Jordanaires, who were Elvis's
original backing singers. He will make his Welsh debut tonight with a
performance at The Litten Tree in Bridgend. His other gigs as part of the
Porthcawl Elvis Festival will be at Trecco Bay Holiday Park (tomorrow, 9pm);
The Grand Pavilion, Porthcawl (Saturday, 8pm); Hi-Tide Inn, Porthcawl
(Sunday, 1pm) and Heartbreak Hotel, Porthcawl (Sunday, 9pm). The festival,
which begins tomorrow and ends on Sunday, was launched last year by
organiser Peter Phillips and was a huge success.

'I wanted to do something for Porthcawl and had an idea to put on an award
show for Elvis tribute artists to give them the recognition they deserve. I
had no idea it would be as big as it was. It was the biggest Elvis festival
in Europe and the second biggest in the world. When I went to America people
had heard of Porthcawl because of the festival.'

EPE CLOSE ELVIS-A-RAMA?


Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc., a subsidiary of CKX inc, has agreed a deal
to acquire the assets of the Las Vegas based Elvis-A-Rama museum.

The deal includes the trademark to the name "Elvis-A-Rama," the related
website name and a substantial portion of the memorabilia currently on display at
the Las Vegas-based museum.

The existing museum will be permanently closed down and the Elvis-A-Rama
name retired as part of CKX's and EPE's overall plan to bring a world class
Elvis-themed attraction to the Las Vegas strip.

Robert F.X. Sillerman, Chairman and CEO of CKX said "As we have mentioned on
numerous occasions, establishing a major presence for the 'Elvis' brand in
Las Vegas is an important priority of the company. The closure of the museum
together with the purchase of the artifacts and memorabilia currently
located there, clears the way for implementation of our plan."

CKX and EPE are acquiring these assets from Chris Davidson and certain other
minority partners.  Davidson has been collecting Elvis memorabilia for more
than ten years and is one of the world's most well known private collectors of
such items.

As part of the deal, Chris Davidson has been allowed the right to open a
licensed Elvis-themed museum in Hawaii, a location often associated with Elvis
Presley.

In addition to receipt of the licensing fee, the Company will retain the
right to acquire a significant equity interest in the Hawaiian operations. Hawaii
served as the location for three of Mr. Presley's films and perhaps most famously, was
home to the 1973 concert "Elvis, Aloha from Hawaii," which was broadcast
worldwide and ultimately viewed by more than 1.5 billion people around the world.

Note: Sillerman's company did not close Elvis A Rama, it will be open at
least another year.  Then they are supposedly are going to open an Elvis related place
somewhere on the Vegas strip.

What they really wanted is two things.  One: To eliminate a popular longtime
established Elvis museum that would be competition for them.

Two: To buy the only Elvis trademarked name they didn't own.
Elvis A Rama was trademarked before Graceland started trademarking
everything Elvis and was granfathered in legally by the previous owner Jimmy
Velvet.

Never before seen footage from Houston - February 27 1970 (Evening Show)

I've updated my video page on my site, with some never before seen footage
from Houston - February 27 1970 (Evening Show)

Click Here: www.keithflynn.com

If you look at the footage you can see a clock next to the ELVIS sign (in
lights).
The footage starts at around 8.24pm (the Rodeo show started at 7.45pm I
guess) with Elvis being driven to the stage, and Elvis is driven back from
the stage and around the Astrodome at 9.02pm (9.03pm). This struck me as a
short concert! (38 minutes).

New Czech Releases.

The Czech fan club label Memory Records will release two new live CDs next
week. Both CDs are dedicated to Elvis Presley appearances in Las Vegas in
1975. The sound of these recordings CDs was digitally restored.


The first CD, "Las Vegas Moonlight" (CD MR 2048-2), contains the December
10, 10 P.M. (dinner) show. This show was previously available on an old
import CD in very incomplete form and in poor sound. This new release is
taken from different original audience recorded mono master tape.
Originally, the concert was long about 82 minutes. Producers decided to edit
out 2:30 minutes of Elvis' dialogue to fit the show on to one compact disc.
However, no songs or instrumental band solos were edited. Elvis was in a
particularly good mood and his high spirits were evident as he sung "Can't
Help Falling In Love" as the second song of the show. This version was
performed practically acapela and followed immediately by the closing vamp.
Elvis acted like he was going to end the show and left the stage. However he
came back immediately and continued with a short but complete "When My Blue
Moon Turns To Gold Again", a true live rarity. Elvis then showed his full
vocal power in "Trying To Get To You", "You Gave Me A Mountain", and "Just
Pretend" to name just a few of the highlights. He dedicates "How Great Thou
Art" to his friend evangelist Rex Humbard and near the end of the show
performs "My Way" by request for the first time since May 1974. He is unsure
in the lyrics and he gets some help from his accompanying singer Sherrill
Nielsen during the song which makes this particular performance very special
too.

Track listing :

01. Also Sprach Zarathustra (A 2001 Space Odyssey Theme) - 02. See See Rider

Second CD, "Springtime In Nevada" (CD MR 2049-2) represent Elvis Presley
Spring 1975 Las Vegas engagement. This mono audience recording is previously
unreleased and apparaently in very good sound quality. The CD runs for
almost 70 minutes. Elvis' dinner show on March 25 was a very typical concert
for this season. Elvis was less chatty and he concentrated more on his
singing. His voice was strong again and he gave several solid performances
of recent songs, whilst the majority of his old standards were excluded from
the set list. Among the best moments of this show are spellbinding
performances of his "Stax" numbers "It's Midnight", "Promised Land" and "My
Boy". Elvis paid attention to rock and rhythm and blues numbers again and he
treated songs like "Big Boss Man", "Burning Love" and "T-R-O-U-B-L-E" with
gusto and respect. The latter two tracks are included as special bonuses and
were taken from another tape, recorded live during the following spring tour
in Tampa, Florida on April 26 at the 8:30 P.M. show.

01. Opening Vamp / See See Rider - 02. I Got A Woman / Amen (medley) - 03. I

New Fire Down Below Single.

Jerry Scheff and the Austrian singer Dennis Jale will release a single
featuring Fire Down Below and the beautiful song That's When The Real Love
Begins on October 14.

Beside the two songs will the CD also feature a track with Jerry Scheff
talking about the song Fire Down Below that he wrote for Elvis (Elvis never
put his vocal on the track that the band recorded because he was sick during
the recording sessions that would be his last).

There will be produced a German and a separate English booklet version.

"King of the Mountain" - another brooding epic.

This is a reminder of what we have been missing with Kate Bush's absence.
Tori Amos, Björk and others have attempted to eclipse Bush's
otherworldliness, musicality and sheer weirdness, but none has come close
and King Of The Mountain shows why.

It's a brooding epic which begins with an ominous guitar riff before that
instantly recognisable voice charges in. "Could you see the aisles of women?
Could you see them screaming and weeping?" she asks.

As ever, she is too subtle a writer to offer answers to who the king is and
where his mountain might be, but there are references to Elvis (Presley?)
and Rosebud, the talismanic sledge in Orson Welles' Citizen Kane.

The allegorical lyrical mystery makes her music more alluring. Bush was
always a uniquely physical writer, but the more this song progresses, the
more she sounds buffeted by the elements atop a frozen mountain. Gales howl
around her before she concludes: "The wind, it blows the door closed." It is
not easy listening, but it is a landmark work. I can't wait for Aerial.

PRISCILLA REVIEWS HER LIFE.

Priscilla Presley -- former superstar spouse, Leslie Nielsen's leading lady
and best- selling author -- is coming to Kentucky Oct. 10 and 11. She will speak at
Toyota's In the Interest of Women conference and share her formula for finding
success. She recently chatted with us about calling it quits with the King and her
confident career moves.

Q. What will you be talking about at the conference?

A. I'm basically taking the audience through my life and what I've learned
and how I've come out of it. You kind of go through the trials and tribulations of
what I had to deal with. One doesn't have lessons on how to live with a superstar,
especially at a young age. It's fantasy, but believe me, it's more reality than one can
imagine.

Q. How did you find the courage to end your marriage to Elvis?

A. That was the most difficult year of my life. That was not a decision I
abruptly made. I could not change his world. It was fun and it was great, but when
you have a child, it's a little bit different. You can't do all the traveling, you
can't be on set like you used to. . I wanted to bring my child traveling with me when we
went out of town. That was not really something that I could do, because other
members of the group had children, and he didn't feel like he wanted to have a bunch of
children around. . You're faced with reality. That was probably the turning
point for me. I (was) serving two masters. I had to face the fact that his world
was never going to change. I didn't leave out of hate. I still loved him very much,
but I had to start living my own life.

Q. Did you dream of becoming an actress and an author?

A. They were not always aspirations. I was very willing and wanting to
create a home life. My parents are still together. We just celebrated their 57th
wedding anniversary. So I came from a very solid family background, and so did
Elvis, really. I was prepared to basically be a wife and a mother. I didn't have
dreams of coming to Hollywood and being an actress. Those are things I started very
gradiently on after my divorce. After Elvis died, I realized that I needed
to really get my life together. We remained friends until the day he died.

Q. How did you segue into acting and doing commercials?

A. I started designing clothes and had my own boutique for about five years,
and (after that) I was asked about doing commercials, and I went on to become
the spokesperson for Wella.

I started very late in life for being in the business. It was step by step.

It was a challenge because I'd never acted before. I took acting lessons. I
was very shy, had to be forced on the stage to do a scene. I got this little show
called "Those Amazing Animals" with Burgess Meredith. Even though we only did 13
shows, it put me in front of an audience. In many ways, that paved the way
for me to start getting into (more) television.

Q. How did you get hooked up with "The Naked Gun" folks?

A. I was on "Dallas" for five years, and it was during a hiatus. They were
filming "The Naked Gun" and they asked to see me, and I went in and auditioned,
never thinking ever that I was going to get the part, because I was never known to
be, nor am I a comedian. They said they weren't looking for a comedian. That's
exactly what they didn't want. If you look at some of the cast, like Ricardo
Montalban, Robert Goulet, the (Zucker brothers) certainly took risks. I got the call
three days later saying I got the part. I was totally shocked that I got it. I had no
idea why they would want me for this. Once we started shooting, I felt very comfortable
and really loved it. It was the best time that I ever had. Leslie could not have been
nicer. He was the greatest partner because he knew it was my first major film. He kind
of took me by the hand and made me feel very comfortable. I was very
intimidated at first, knowing who he was.

Q. What compelled you to become an author?

A. The book "Elvis and Me" was a book in response to a "Elvis" by Albert
Goldman, which was so critical of Elvis in every aspect. Goldman did one on
Lenny Bruce and John Lennon. I did not want "Elvis" to be a book my daughter read
thinking this was her father. It was more about a desperation to clear his
name. I did a very personal book.

Q. What was the process of writing like?

A. Writing is never easy, because you get very emotional, and you have to
put everything in perspective. One wants the reader to understand them, and I
found so many times when I wrote, I truly understood what I was writing. But you
have to look at it from the perspective of the reader, and writing takes on a whole
different form. So I wrote and rewrote. I handwrote everything. And the girl who was
helping me, Sandra, she'd edit it. I have boxes and boxes of handwritten pages. It
was not easy, no. It's a very long process. I said I'd never do it again.

Q. Would you take a stab at writing fiction?

A. Maybe, because it's not so personal.

Q. What do you take time out to enjoy?

A. I certainly try to spend a lot of time with my family. I feel that's very
important, especially in a day and age now where families are growing apart. I value my
family very much. I definitely exercise, and I make sure that I don't get
stressed out. I find things I like to do and mix it with what I need to do. In
America here, we are very work-involved people. We tend to put that before everything else.
We don't put enough time in for ourselves.

Q. Have you ever been to Kentucky before?

A. I came to Lexington once when I was doing "Dallas." I was there with
Larry Hagman and Linda Gray and we went to the races. We had come in for the
Derby, and I couldn't stay for it. I remember Anita Madden very well. But I was so
sorry I missed the big race

Elvis: The Personal Archives Book.

Elvis: The Personal Archives
Channel Photographics proudly announces the release of Elvis: The Personal
Archives, a unique first book by artist Jeff Scott with text by renowned art
historian, E.A. Carmean, Jr.

Beginning in 2000, with the cooperation of the Elvis Presley Enterprises,
artist Jeff Scott gained unlimited access to Elvis's personal artifacts to
create a complex portrait of the music legend through his belongings.
Scott's images reveal the humanity of Elvis behind the recognizable
celebrity veneer.

As an example, the way Scott juxtaposes a gun from Elvis' collection and
vanity police badges reveals a fundamental rift between Presley's rebellious
reputation and his interest in law enforcement. Other photos in the book
include the gold bedside telephone, the TV with a bullet hole though the
screen and the travel trunk filled with scarves still in their dry cleaning
plastic. These provide a rare portrayal of Elvis's inner life, placing the
public man in an intimate context. Throughout, Scott explores our complex
relationship with modern celebrity culture and the ways in which our
possessions and material objects outlive us to tell our story.

Jeff Scott is known for his dramatic imagery of America's historic and
cultural landscape and his work is in the permanent collections of the
Dallas Museum of Art, the Smithsonian, Disneyland, Ralph Lauren, and the
National Trust for Historic Preservation.

E.A. Carmean, Jr., the art historian, includes among his books Great Decade
of American Abstraction: Modernist Art, 1960 to 1970.

The Priscilla Presley Collection.

Australian businessman Bruno Schiavi took Delta Goodrem's knickers to the
world and now he's climbing into bed with Priscilla Presley. Schiavi has
joined forces with Presley to release a range of bed linen, robes, slippers,
towels and candles.

"We are out in the world fighting battles every single day and the one place
you come home to is a place that is like your bedroom that is a sanctuary
for you," Presley said from her Los Angeles home.

"I love the fabrics. The collection shows versatility, uniqueness and
style."

Schiavi relocated from Sydney to Los Angeles earlier this year to work with
Presley on the collection which will be released in Australia in February
next year.

"I am hands on with this with Bruno," said Elvis' ex, who also has her own
perfume range. "I could never just lend my name and have somebody do all the
work for me. I would feel like I am cheating myself and cheating the
consumer."

Schiavi, who was this week listed in BRW magazine's young rich list, said he
is often approached by celebrities looking to broaden their markets. The
businessman specialises in working with high profile people and in the past
has mostly worked on marketing lingerie ranges for celebrities, among them
Delta Goodrem. He said the most important part of his endeavours is feeling
a connection with the person he is working with.

"I could have met Priscilla and she could have been lovely but at the same
time, if I didn't think we could work together, I wouldn't have gone ahead,"
Schiavi, 33, said. "Being a global launch, it is a huge challenge for my
company and I have got to make sure this partnership actually lasts for a
long time."

Schiavi is in negotiations with retail outlets internationally to distribute
the Presley collection. Priscilla Presley will come to Australia in February
or March 2006 to launch the first range.

"February is when I am hoping to come for the launch," she said. "And that
gives me a chance to meet up with some friends that I have there too and
share what we have created and hope that they are as excited as we are."

The Priscilla Presley Collection will consist of nine lines, with the bed
linen made of fine egyptian cottons and in a range of colours from whites to
browns, gold and green. One line was inspired by a favourite pair of
Presley's pants.

Presley was married to Elvis from 1967 to 1973 and has two children, Lisa
Marie Presley and Navarone Garibaldi. Aside from her new business venture,
Presley has been working on the release of the Elvis by the Presleys book
and DVD.

"I have been taken aback by the success of both the DVD and the book," she
said. "I couldn't be happier and I know that means a lot to the (Elvis
Presley) Estate. "Again, it shows that Elvis certainly is probably more
popular than he was when he was alive. His legacy just keeps going."

Presley house nominated to the National Register of Historic Places.


There are no jungle rooms at 1034 Audubon Drive, no gold records and no pink
Cadillacs. But this modest ranch-style house in the Audubon Park Subdivision
of southeast Memphis shares a history with Graceland, the famous
white-columned mansion more than 10 miles (16 kilometers) away.

The house Elvis Presley purchased at age 21, a home that his fame quickly
outgrew, has been nominated to the National Register of Historic Places. The
State Review Board approved the nomination Tuesday and now it moves on -
just as Graceland did in 1991 - for approval at the national level.

Judith Johnson, an architecture historian in Memphis, helped the private
owners put the house up for nomination. No stranger to Elvis history,
Johnson was involved in protecting from demolition a Memphis public housing
unit, Lauderdale Courts, where Elvis spent his teenage years.

Now she's hoping to put another Elvis homestead on the map. While Graceland
is synonymous with the rock 'n' roll legend, Johnson said, the little
Audubon represents another period of Elvis' life.

Purchased with his first royalty checks from RCA Studio on March 8, 1956,
Elvis, his parents and grandmother lived in the four-bedroom house for only
a year. One month after moving in, his single "Heartbreak Hotel" hit No. 1
on the Billboard charts, ultimately ending any privacy he had in the
neighborhood.

Crowds of fans lined the suburban street and police frequently had to be
called in to handle the growing problem. This massive, and often emotional,
response by fans to Elvis and his music would come to characterize the rest
of his life and career.

A Life magazine article from August 1956 had pictures of teenage girls
sitting with their ears pressed to his bedroom wall and picking through the
grass in his yard for souvenirs. A brick and wrought iron fence surrounding
the property was erected soon after, and Elvis' room was moved to the back
of the house, Johnson said, but the attention did not stop.

Freeman said that what made Elvis different from other musicians and
celebrities was his affection for his fans, no matter how large the crowds.
In the short time the family was there, Elvis had a 50-foot (15-meter)-long
granite pool installed in the backyard and a den added to the house,
according to records. The pool was the largest residential pool in Memphis
when he built it. His motorcycles were housed in a separate building, which
eventually became a pool house complete with two dressing rooms.
Many of Alfred Wertheimer's photographs of the emerging musician were shot
at this house, chronicling Elvis' growing fame and fortune. These
photographs helped the owners recreate the interior decoration as close as
possible with period furniture from the 1950s.

In March 1957, Elvis swapped the house on Audubon Drive for a 14-acre
(5.6-hectare) estate with a two-story colonial already known as Graceland, a
home that Elvis would make famous. But the Audubon house still gets its
share of fans, although they've stopped knocking on the doors in the middle
of the night, Freeman said, AP reports.

These songs document the process of the Hillbilly Cat from Memphis, the king
of western bop, becoming simply The King and the music contained here
documents the seed-sowing of what we now know as Rock and Roll.

Britain's answer to Elvis blames radio ban for ending his recording career.

Britain's "Elvis", Cliff Richard.
For his diehard fans it will be a cause for dismay. Others might see it as
an excuse for a celebration. Either way, Cliff Richard's announcement that
he will not be releasing any more records closes the door on one of the most
prolific careers in popular music.

Sir Cliff's music is no longer as popular as it was - at least not with the
arbiters of taste at UK radio stations. The 64-year-old yesterday blamed an
unofficial boycott for driving him out of the recording industry.

Former Child Actress from Elvis's Movie "Speedway" Visits Graceland.


Photo: At age 8, Victoria Paige Meyerink was cast as adorable urchin Ellie
Esterlake in "Speedway." Last week she was in Memphis and stopped by
Graceland for her very first visit. She was in Memphis to screen her new
movie, "Finding Home.

Actress/producer Victoria Paige Meyerink visited Graceland on September
15th. She was in Memphis promoting her latest film production.

As a child actress Victoria appeared as the character Ellie Esterlake in the
1968 movie "Speedway" with Elvis. If you know the movie, you'll remember her
as the little girl who goes around swiping food for her down-and-out father
and siblings.

Elvis's character, race car driver Steve Grayson, befriends the family and
helps them out. Elvis sings the song "Your Time Hasn't Come Yet, Baby" to
Victoria in the film.

Welcome: New lead singer of INXS J.D. Fortune (third left) with band members
Jon Farriss, Tim Farriss, Kirk Pengilly, Andrew Farriss and Garry Beers.

AUSTRALIAN rock band INXS claim their new singer has been approved by
Michael Hutchence. Canadian JD Fortune -- a former Elvis impersonator who
was so broke he slept in his car -- was chosen to replace the late Hutchence
on yesterday's finale of reality TV show Rock Star.

INXS guitarist Tim Farriss said a surprise thunderstorm in LA yesterday --
the day they had to choose their new singer -- was a sign from Hutchence; it
had not rained the entire time they had been in Hollywood to film Rock Star.

Joel Hirschborn Dies.

Joel Hirschhorn, who shared two Academy Awards for theme songs in "The
Poseidon Adventure" (1973) and "The Towering Inferno," (1975) has died. He
was 67. Hirschhorn died Sunday of a heart attack at Los Robles Hospital and
Medical Center in Thousand Oaks, his wife, documentary producer Jennifer
Carter Hirschhorn, said Monday. He had broken his shoulder in a fall Friday
night, she said.

Hirschhorn's songs sold more than 90 million records, were featured in 20
movies and were recorded by various artists. Elvis recorded his song "Your
Time Hasn't Come Yet Baby" in 1967 for the movie soundtrack of "Speedway".

Two years later, Hirschhorn and Kasha, who co-wrote the Elvis track, were
nominated for a pair of Oscars for songs from the Disney animated film
"Pete's Dragon." Hirschhorn and Kasha also received two Tony Award
nominations.

PLAQUE FOR ARIZONA MEMORIAL.


Elvis documentary maker Bernard Roughton informs that in August, he was able
to gain access to the Bloch Arena Nr Pearl Harbour, Oahu, Hawaii. Which is
not an easy task to do as a civilian because you need permission from the
base commander.

The show was performed on Sunday, March 25 - 1961 at 8.30 P.M. at the Bloch
Arena in Pear Harbor.

There were 4000 tickets sold in the price range from $3 - $10, and an
additional 100 tickets of $100 each were reserved for a special ringside
section in the bloch arena. 50 of these tickets were bought by Elvis and The
Colonel and donated to patients from the Tripler Hospital.

Elvis' benefit concert raised over $65,000 for the USS Arizona memorial
building fund. All proceeds
went directly to the project, without anything held for expenses. Even Elvis
and the Colonel had to
buy a ticket to get into the show. This show created one of the biggest
private donations to
the memorial fund.

Elvis wore his gold lame jacket and black dress pants. This would be the
last time Elvis would ever wear the gold lame jacket. The concert itself would become the last
performance on stage till Elvis return on stage, almost 8 years later in Las Vegas in 1969.

One week after Bernards visit to the arena, Lisa Marie Presley & her son,
plus about 10 other people, also visited the arena, wanting to see where her
Dad did the fund-raising concert for the USS Arizona Memorial.

As you probably know, there is NO OFFICIAL plaque commemorating this concert
at Pearl Harbour, or the Bloch Arena. But Bernard has found out that Tom Hulet Concerts West?)
has agreed to donate a plaque & there is a place on the outer wall which has
been discussed as a possible site, but the U.S. Naval Authorities are not
keen on the idea of commemorating one of, if not the single biggest and
generous private donation by Elvis Presley in helping to build the memorial.

There is however, a small "non-official" display in a corridor leading to
the arena, due purely to the efforts of a fan who works near there, but a
proper, "Official" plaque is needed.

Let's get Lisa Marie on board and get Elvis recognised for his part in
honouring the many who lost their lives on December 7th 1941.

A photographic memoir of the making of Elvis Presley's two "in person"
films.

Elvis: The Documentaries By Joseph A. Tunzi Available In November 1st 2005!

In November 1st 2005 from J.A.T. Publishing comes Elvis: The Documentaries.
Joseph Tunzi has put together a beautiful 125-page photo journal that will
take you into Elvis Presley's two acclaimed documentaries, including That's
The Way It Is, and Golden Globe winner Elvis On Tour.

In 1970, Elvis Presley was in the middle of the greatest musical comeback
any entertainer ever experienced. The most exciting aspect of his return was
his triumphant Las Vegas return to the concert stage. He decided that a film
chronicling his live performances would be a way to convey where he was at
today and entertain those who could not come out to see him. The resulting
film was That's The Way It Is, a movie Elvis called his best in a decade.

In April, 1972, Elvis took off on his fourth tour of the 70's and the
cameras went with him. The concerts and the film that resulted, Elvis On
Tour, were rapturously received. Elvis On Tour remains the only time Elvis
publicly reflected on his life and it was awarded the Golden Globe for best
documentary of 1972.

Elvis: The Documentaries takes you behind the scenes during the making of
these seminal films. With new facts on their production and over 135
unpublished photographs, Elvis: The Documentaries is an essential addition
to everyone's Elvis library. You will see Elvis during rehearsals, in the
studio, and onstage entertaining his friends and fans.

J.A.T. Publishing has again created a book that will be both beautiful and
informative. Elvis: The Documentaries is an outstanding book that shows you
why Elvis was proud to have made these films.

Retail price $59.95

Elvis performed on X Factor.

Elvis Presley performed for the X Factor judges on Saturday night's show.
But wasn't the real king of rock and roll hoping to impress Sharon Osbourne,
Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell and make it through to the finals of the ITV1
talent show. Instead the judges were forced to listen to the north of
England's own Elvis Presley - a man from Scomersdale who had changed his
name to that of the legendry music star.

Sadly this Elvis left the building after receiving a unanimous "no" vote
from the trio who decided the hopeful just didn't live up to his name.

"I think you're more Shakin' Stevens than Elvis Presley," Louis told Elvis
after his audition.

"Hmm, I think you're more Shufflin' Stevens than Shakin' Stevens," added
acid-tongued Simon.

Later in the show, Sharon came face to face with her own biggest fan.
Londoner Erika declared her love for Mrs Osbourne before breaking into
uncontrollable sobs.

"Oh, oh Sharon, can I hug you Sharon? Oh I love you, I meet you in the
flesh, I love you so much," the obsessed fan exclaimed.

Her adulation seemed to carry weight with Sharon, who voted to put Erika
through to the X Factor finals despite both Simon and Louis berating her
performance of the Gloria Gaynor hit "I Will Survive."

THE CHARRO CHAPEL CHALLENGE.


Elvis "Charro" Chapel mystery deepens: On 8 September we published a story
that the chapel donated to Superstition Mountain Museum was not the chapel
featured in Charro. We have now been contacted by Philip Rauso Jr. whose
research is at odds with our earlier story.

Philip says:

"My name is Philip Rauso, Jr. and I am a historian for the area of Apache
Junction, particularly, Apacheland Movie Ranch and other movie making
locations in the area. I read a recent posting on your website by a man
named Tim Casara. He said that the church the Superstition Mountain Museum
is looking to preserve is bogus and is not the same building from 1969 Elvis
movie "Charro!"I have researched the building for the past 10 years and I
can assure you that it is in fact the very same building that was in
"Charro!" the movie. After the building was damaged by canon fire in the
movie, the only way to save the building was to add certain features to it
to cover up the damage. Photos on my site show the current building in the
same position and location as the original building. Other photos show
CLEARLY that it is exactly the same building right down to the fancy trim
under the overhangs and the mountain bluffs and shrubbery in the background.
they match identically.

I applaud the efforts of the Superstition Mountain Museum for saving this
piece of Elvis history and am proud to have been a part of helping to raise
funds for it. When the building is completed and moved to its new location
in the near future, I hope to put my vast collection of "Charro!" artifacts,
including his cement footprints, on display. I am also helping with efforts
to building "The Arizona Cowboy Museum" in the same location that many
desert scenes were filmed in "Charro!" and many other western movies and TV
shows. I will also be putting up a "Charro!" display at this location and
hope the two museums will compliment each other".

You can read more about these efforts on the museum website:

New Book Elvis Religion: Exploring the Cult of The King.


(ISBN: 1845111648) 208 pages by author Gregory L. Reece Published by  I.B.
Tauris releasedate March,2006.

The first portrait of Elvis as religious icon From Graceland to Las Vegas,
from fans to impersonators, from novels, films and popular music to internet
websites, outsider art and tabloid conspiracy theories, the cult of Elvis
Presley has, since his death, become ever more imaginative. Elvis Religion
explores the frequently bizarre and weird - yet sometimes moving - phenomena
growing out of this world and investigates what it is that has turned the
King of Rock 'n' Roll into a god-like figure. Elvis, we discover, is found
everywhere.

He is not just an icon for late night lonely hearts in Memphis, or Elvis
impersonators on a Vegas stage, but is the inspiration
behind the violent visions of movies like Mystery Train and Wild at Heart,
the kitsch sanctuary of Graceland Too, the music
of Kirsty MacColl and Paul Simon, and the internet church for whom he is a
supernatural being who dwells in the constellation of Orion. Gregory L Reece
makes a journey to discover the Jumpsuit Jesus for himself, which takes him
into the heart of fan obsession. Along the way, he discovers that if Elvis
Saves it is because now, more than ever, the Memphis Messiah seems like a
prophet for our times.

Investors Are All Shook Up.

A pair of big investors in "All Shook Up," starring Cheyenne Jackson
(center), could've used a hunk, a hunk of burnin' love from the lead
producer.

"I Got Stung" never made its way into the Elvis Presley musical "All Shook
Up." But it's the perfect song for backers of a show that had enormous
potential but, because of mismanagement, behind-the-scenes feuds and an
arrogant and inexperienced lead producer, has turned out to be one of last
season's costliest flops.

One person involved in the production calls "All Shook Up," which will
likely lose more than $10 million, "a massive missed opportunity." Two
principal investors - Miramax Films and Clear Channel Entertainment - are so
disgusted with the way things have been run by Jonathan Pollard, the lead
producer, that they've withdrawn from the production. The two companies have
written off the money they've already sunk into the show and are refusing to
put up any more. "We're gone," says a source at one of the companies. "The
thing is a disaster."

While other shows posted recorded numbers at the box office this summer,
"All Shook Up" barely held its head above water. It's expected to lose
hundreds of thousands of dollars in the next month. The picture wasn't
always so bleak for "All Shook Up." While in development last year, it
generated good word of mouth. "People were lining up to give us money," says
a production source. "It was fresh and exciting and fun." It was also
Pollard's first Broadway show.

Having made a fortune as the producer of the long-running off-Broadway
revue, "I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change," he was ready to enter the
big time. He was so sure of the success of "All Shook Up" - and of his own
producing skills - that he told potential investors, "If you want to be in
this game, you are going to have to follow my guidelines." The only problem
was, Pollard (who refused to comment for this column) really didn't know
what he was doing. The show's budget ballooned during its out-of-town tryout
in Chicago last winter as Pollard butted heads with the creative team. He
also fought bitterly with Miramax founder Harvey Weinstein, who, sources
say, had good ideas on how to improve and market the show.

"The problem with Jonathan is that unless it's his idea, he won't listen to
it," a person involved in the show says. Pollard tried to market "All Shook
Up," a $10 million Broadway musical, the same way he marketed "I Love You,
You're Perfect, Now Change," which was produced on a shoestring. He resisted
spending money on television ads in the spring - a key time, since so much
attention is focused on the Tony Awards - preferring instead to pass out
flyers and CDs at the half-price ticket booth. "Flyers and CDs are not going
to change your fate," says a production source.

He eventually shot a TV commercial but waited too long to air it, many of
his investors believe. Says one, "We got a lot of good reviews, but he never
capitalized on them." His arrogance also alienated many people.

"He would sit there at marketing meetings in front of a hundred people and
pontificate for hours," says a person who attended the meetings. "He
produced a little off-Broadway show, and he thought he was Cameron
Mackintosh."

The mood backstage at "All Shook Up" these days is grim. The cast shows up
for work every day expecting a closing notice. But Pollard is vowing to keep
the show open at least until the end of the year and has raised some
additional money from new investors.

As wise men say, only fools rush in.

Robbie Williams could be next Elvis.

British pop star ROBBIE WILLIAMS has been tipped to become the next ELVIS
PRESLEY, by legendary Hollywood filmmaker IRWIN WINKLER. Williams makes a
cameo appearance in ROCKY producer Winkler's new musical movie DE-LOVELY -
and the veteran was blown away by his charisma and talent.

Winkler - who produced 1966 Elvis movie DOUBLE TROUBLE - gushes, "He's the
most innovative, exciting performer today

I thought nobody had the star potential that Elvis Presley had, but Robbie
certainly does.
"I just told him, 'Do what you want' and he was great. He had great charisma
and all those tattoos are covered by his tuxedo so he can transform himself.
He's a really attractive guy. And as far as acting is concerned, he's really
got it. He is a real personality, make no mistake."

When The Beatles Met Elvis.


Read by Chris Hutchins.
Written by Chris Hutchins with Peter Thompson

Release date: 26th September 2005
Duration 4 hours

The Untold Story Of Their Entangles Lives.

No one laughed more loudly than the King himself when the Beatles' manager,
Brian Epstein, boasted 'My boys are going to be bigger than Elvis Presley'.
It was the early sixties, and Presley, a living legend, appeared
unassailable. Yet, in 1964, John, Paul, George and Ringo suddenly topped the
American charts - and Beatlemania rolled the King in the greatest rock coup
of all time.

Chris Hutchins, then a music journalist in his early twenties,was at the eye
of the hurricane as the Beatles swept all before them. No other writer grew
as close to the Fab Four from Liverpool as they conquered the world.

As America turned on to the Beatles in a big way during their 1965 tour,
Chris Hutchins used his extensive network of connections to mastermind the
greatest rock summit meeting ever: a one-and-only rendezvous between the
King and the pretenders who were seizing his throne.

With co-author Peter Thompson, Hutchins draws on his own exclusive sources
and unpublished personal archives, as well as FBI files and explosive
dossiers from the District Attorney's investigators in Memphis, to probe
into the greatest rock story never told - one in which the lives of Elvis
Presley and the Beatles became dramatically entwined. They reveal the
passions and the powerplay, the corruption and the conspiracies, the
vendettas and the vanity behind pop-culture's greatest phenomena.

No book has ever penetrated so deeply into the secret worlds of Elvis and
the Beatles. This is the graphic, firsthand account of the ambition, lust
and greed that drove the most gilded icons in pop history to the very peak
of the mountain. And of the dark and dangerous forces that destroyed them.

I Want To Be Free.

During the 47 days Douglas Wood was bashed, handcuffed and blindfolded in
Iraq, he kept his spirits up by humming Elvis Presley's "I Want To Be Free".

Now the song's writer, Mike Stoller, says it was the "most important use of
that song ever", and Mr Wood says he will close his speaking engagements
with a rendition.

Mr Wood said the Kris Kristofferson song Me and Bobby McGee, popularised by
Janis Joplin, had been his first choice, but did not fit the situation.
"When I was in the hell-hole, I hummed it," he said, recounting the song's
famous line: freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose. Speaking
from Los Angeles, Mr Wood said he received "much more inspiration" from the
Elvis song after considering his predicament. The song, off the 1957
Jailhouse Rock EP, speaks of a man sitting alone in a dark room:

"There's no joy in my heart, only sorrow
And I'm sad as a man can be
And this room is a prison to me
I look at window and what do I see
I see a bird way up in the tree
I want to be free"

On his release, Mr Wood discussed with his cousin Ian Allen how he had used
the song to keep his spirits up. His Seaford-based cousin sent a letter to
Stoller, expressing appreciation for the motivation and support the song
provided during Mr Wood's ordeal - in which he was bashed, robbed,
handcuffed, and witnessed other hostages being murdered. Stoller read about
Mr Wood's ordeal in newspapers, and said he was "touched and honoured" by
the gesture.

Mr Wood will appear at a sold-out event at Shepparton United Football Club,
Shepparton, on September 16, and confirmed that he would end his speech with
a rendition.

Most #1's on the Top Singles Charts - 17 although many consider it 18
since Hound Dog
was at #1 on the main chart (best sellers) back in 1956.  Until late summer
1958 there were many charts
to go by and you will see different numbes.  Anyway, Mariahs 'We belong to
Together' drops to #4 this week and her new single 'Shake it off" remains at
#2 for a 2nd week.   Mariah currently is credited with 16 #1's, however,
some are duets.  I believe her total # of weeks at #1 is around 76 now...but
will need to double check.

Elvis's granddaughter in Dior Campaign.

Riley Keough grand daughter of Elvis Presley looks stunning in her latest
advertising campaign for Christian Dior. The 16 year old was photographed by
Pirelli calendar photographer Nick Knight, styled by Cate Blanchett's
stylist and directed by Dior designer John Galliano. She wore a beautifully
cut pale blue jacket accessorised with a denim mini and handbag.

Galliano is delighted with the campaign and said;" I felt Riley represented
the youthfulness of the jacket and decided to do a few pictures with her
people would associate the personality in it.

Keough has previously modelled for Italian fashion house Dolce and Gabbana.
Her mother Lisa Marie Presley supports her career but once said" She has big
plans- she is making me a nervous wreck. She wants to make her own money,
which I totally respect but she is still my baby."

ELVIS ON ED SULLIVAN THE REAL STORY.

Given that some fans think Elvis is still alive despite his death
certificate, highly publicized funeral, and gravestone, it's no surprise that misunderstandings
abound about his career. Among those events surrounded by fallacies-perhaps
because it strongly affected popular culture as well as Elvis's work-is his
legendary first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show, 49 years ago today, on
September 9, 1956. Books and periodicals mentioning the show, which broke
ratings records for the young medium and was one of the first to bring rock
'n' roll to a mass audience, have erroneously reported that Elvis was shown only from
the waist up, a triumph of censorship and evidence of the continued prudery of
the 1950s. Others, aware of the hoopla surrounding the program, remember it as
Elvis' s first performance on TV. The truth, as usual, is a little more
complicated-and more interesting.

Presley, who had released his first three number-one hits by the time of the
show, was already a TV veteran. He had appeared six times on the Dorsey brothers'
Stage Show between January and March 1956 and then on The Milton Berle Show
on April 3, to increasing, if not yet fevered, press attention. But after
his second Berle show, on June 5, members of the press expressed sudden revulsion at
what the New York Journal-American called his "primitive physical movement
difficult to describe in terms suitable to a family newspaper." The New York Daily News
reported that Elvis "gave an exhibition that was suggestive and vulgar,
tinged with the kind of animalism that should be confined to dives and bordellos," while
the San Francisco Chronicle deemed it "in appalling taste." The reaction was
enough to make Steve Allen, who had booked Elvis for his show before the backlash,
briefly consider reneging, but in the end, Elvis did appear on his show on
July 1, although in strangely tame form. Allen, going comically overboard to avoid
scandal, dressed him in top hat, tails, and white gloves. Elvis soldiered on
gamely, singing "Hound Dog" to a top-hatand bow-tie-clad basset hound.

Sullivan, never a fan of controversy, had already refused an offer to hire
Elvis for $5,000. The famously prickly host had been burned before by rock 'n' roll
stars: He vowed to drum Bo Diddley out of television after his 1955 act on the
show, when he sang his own hit "Bo Diddley" instead of Sullivan's request,
Tennessee Ernie Ford's "Sixteen Tons." But Elvis's ratings-his stint on the Allen show
had trounced Sullivan-changed his mind. Even as he professed to the press that
Elvis was "not my cup of tea," Ed Sullivan had already begun negotiations
with Elvis's agent, Colonel Tom Parker. His hesitation cost him heavily, however.
He would end up agreeing to shell out $50,000 for three appearances, an
unprecedented sum.

Elvis made his Sullivan debut on the show's season premiere, but on the big
night neither Sullivan nor Elvis was in the New York studio. Elvis was in
Hollywood, filming his first movie, and he sang from the CBS studio there. Sullivan was
recovering from an August head-on car collision, and Charles Laughton, the
star of Mutiny on the Bounty, filled in for the host, hailing his guest by
saying, "Away to Hollywood to meet Elvis Presley."

Elvis, wearing a loud plaid jacket, greeted the audience from a set
decorated with stylized guitar shapes. He announced that the show was "probably the
greatest honor I have ever had in my life," and then launched into "Don't Be Cruel."
The camera stayed above his waist for now, sometimes closing in on his face,
sometimes turning to show his backup singers, but something Elvis was doing
out of lens range was causing unexplained screams from the audience. After the
number was over, he acknowledged the vocal segment of the crowd, saying,
"Thank you, ladies." To finish the first segment, he played the title song
to his new movie, "Love Me Tender," introducing it as "completely different from
anything we' ve ever done." Nationwide, disk jockeys taped the performance and played the
song, which had yet to be released, on their radio shows, increasing
pre-release orders to almost a million and pushing forward the single's release date.

Viewers got to see the full Elvis-legs, hips, and all-during the second
segment, when he performed the up-tempo Little Richard song "Ready Teddy" and two
verses of "Hound Dog." Young rock fans today would doubtless have a hard
time understanding what all the scandal was about, as his frenetic swivels and
shuffles look chaste compared to the gyrations common on MTV. But Elvis on that night
(and his rock star peers in general around the same time) arguably set in
motion a trend that continues today. The press was quick to note that the cameras
switched to close-up shots whenever he started dancing, in effect censoring him, but
the TV audience got to see plenty, and besides, the girls screamed when he grunted,
moved his tongue, crossed his eyes, or even stood perfectly still. With
Elvis, censorship began to seem irrelevant. As Laughton noted at the end of the
hour, " Well, what did someone say? Music hath charms to soothe the savage breast?"

The viewing audience certainly wasn't so offended that it changed the
channel. The September 9 Sullivan show reached 82.6 percent of the TV audience, and
Steve Allen hadn't even seen fit to offer an alternative; NBC had showed a
movie instead. Censorship did enjoy one last gasp during Elvis's third appearance,
on January 6, 1957, when Sullivan-or, as some historians believe, a
publicity-hungry Parker-did indeed instruct the camera operator to show him only from the
waist up, even when he sang the gospel tune "Peace in the Valley." It was the last
song he would ever perform on the show. Parker was now demanding $300,000 for
future TV engagements, stipulating that a network must also commit to two
guest spots and an hour-long special.

Even as he priced his client out of its range, Parker credited the program
with the success of "Love Me Tender" and earning Elvis the esteem of American adults
for the first time. Historians assert that Elvis's three nights on the Sullivan
show helped bridge the gap between the first rock 'n' roll generation and their
parents. Whether at the same time his behavior on those shows ultimately caused
today's generation gap-that is, whether MTV's rump-shakers should look to Elvis as
their earliest role model and parents can blame him for Britney Spears-is still up
for debate.

Elvis is.

I am an Elvis fan and have been since 1954. I was a pretty bad banjo player
back then, with a resonating tin ear, but I sure liked to whack that old
instrument. I would take the bus down to Robinson Auditorium every Saturday
night to the Barnyard Frolics. I didn't play for any group, but just stood
around waiting for them to ask me to accompany someone with my clanging. If
they requested your services, it meant $5 in your pocket. There was always a
final song and they would let me whack a few chords in the finale.

A young man from Memphis had some hits out I was bonkers about: "Blue Moon
of Kentucky," "Heartbreak Hotel" and "That's All Right, Mama." I was also
into R & B, but would not have let any of the country performers know. It
was evident that "Heartbreak Hotel" and "That's All Right Mama" were Elvis'
versions of songs recorded by black artists from River City - just up tempo
and with more enthusiasm, like his later "(You Ain't Nothin' But a) Hound
Dog" done by blues giant Bessie Smith in the 1940s. There is really only one
version of "Blue Moon of Kentucky," and that is by Bob Wills and the Texas
Playboys in blue grass; but Elvis did it his way and made us like it.

Elvis was a regular on "Louisiana Hayride" and one night talk was that he
was coming to perform at the Frolics. There was no middle ground: The
younger folks were giddy with delight, the old timers were less than
enthusiastic. Didn't matter because he didn't come and it was the next year
that I had to shell out five smokes to catch Elvis in the auditorium. Why
folks were even ... shudder ... dancing in the aisles until the cops put a
squeeze on such behavior.

There is one thing I cannot forgive Elvis for, however: He just about killed
country music as we knew it. He had such an impact on country audiences that
alarm bells began to go off all over Nashville. The result was that guitar
virtuoso and director of talent at RCA Victor records, Chet Atkins, had to
do something and do it fast; the result came to be known as the Nashville
Sound. It was wildly popular with young folks, I just never got into it. No
more Eddie Arnold, Cowboy Copas, Jimmy Rogers, Little Jimmy Dickens, Flatt
and Scruggs, Patsy Montana, Bob Wills and other greats. Why Bob Wills was
promoted to icon and his music taken over by a group known as Asleep at The
Wheel. Elvis, old pard, I love you anyway.

BOB SILLERMAN'S PLANS FOR ELVIS IN VEGAS.

A half-century after his Las Vegas debut, Elvis is returning to the Strip in
a big way.

New York businessman Robert F.X. Sillerman, who purchased the business side
of the Elvis Presley estate, has an Elvis project planned on Las Vegas
Boulevard that will stretch from the Harley-Davidson Cafe to Smith &
Wollensky's.

During a Friday interview at his oceanside compound in the Hamptons,
Sillerman told me that he and his partners have a major entertainment
element planned for the project, which, he reminded me, will go up across
the Strip from the MGM Mirage's $6 billion City Center project.

He compared the location to owning property at Times Square in New York
City.

Remember the name. Sillerman, who sold his SFX Entertainment company to
Clear Channel for $4.5 billion and is one of the producers of the Broadway
hit "The Producers," has been a major player in the entertainment industry
and has big plans for Elvis.

"When we bought Elvis Presley Enterprises, we said the world is
under-Elvised," Sillerman said.

Lisa Marie To Be Grand Marshal of NASCAR Race At Memphis Motorsports Park.


Lisa Marie Presley will serve as grand marshal of the NASCAR Busch Series
Sam's Town 250, Oct. 22, at Memphis Motorsports Park.

Presley is featured in the latest "How bad have you got it?" ad for NASCAR.
The commercial combines footage of Lisa Marie at the Daytona race in July
with her song "Thanx."

Though her time at the Daytona International Speedway was her first NASCAR
race to attend in person, she's quick to say that she's already hooked.

"I'm looking forward to being the grand marshal at the Sam's Town 250,"
Presley said. "I've definitely become a total NASCAR fan."

Presley is in the middle of promotion for her album and was also interviewed
this month by Sports Illustrated for her take on NASCAR.

"Lisa Marie gets it," said Jason Rittenberry, Memphis Motorsports Park vice
president and general manager. "She gets NASCAR, and how lucky for our race
fans that she will be sharing a NASCAR race day in her hometown with them."



(From left) Jack Soden (CEO, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc.), Memphis and
NASCAR champions Bobby Hamilton Jr. and Bobby Hamilton, and Jason
Rittenberry (VP & GM, Memphis Motorsports Park) unveil the track's new
"Elvis" trophy inside the gates of Graceland on Wednesday morning.

The Sam's Town 250 is also the second race that will award the new trophy
that is a bronze statuette of Elvis.

The race week schedule includes Fanfest on Thursday night at Sam's Town, two
practice sessions on Friday afternoon, and qualifying on Saturday morning at
10:35 a.m. The race will take the green flag at 2:30 p.m. and The Charlie
Daniels Band will perform a post-race concert. Tickets are $15-$52.

Support Red Cross Hurricane 2005 Relief.

American Red Cross volunteers have been deployed to the hardest hit areas of
Hurricane Katrina's destruction, supplying shelter, food, medical service,
counseling and other assistance to those in need. The Elvis Presley
Charitable Foundation has made a donation to the Red Cross Hurricane 2005
Relief effort and we encourage everyone to do so.
http://store.yahoo.com/redcross-donate3/

You may donate directly to Red Cross Hurricane 2005 Relief. In times of
disaster, many Elvis fans wish to make contributions as a group in memory of
Elvis. We are in the process of adding a Red Cross option to the online
donation form for the Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation to facilitate this
wish. You also have the option of sending in a donation to the foundation
via regular mail and designating the Red Cross as beneficiary.

Elvis' "cement footprints" from Charro too heavy for Ebay sale.

Philip Rauso has advised EIN of the reason for his ending this sale (for
earlier story see 1 September): "I withdrew the auction because of the
shipping costs. The total weight of the footprints alone was over 250lbs and
the couriers could not guarantee me or the purchaser that they would arrive
in one piece.

I had lots of people from Japan and the UK interested but the shipping is
what caused me to pull auction. Prices for freight shipping could cost over
$4,000 with insurance but there is no way to replace the items if they were
damaged."

Hurricane Katrina affects Elvis world identity.

Elvis author Sandi Pichon (Raised on Elvis! Elvis! Elvis!), as far as we can
determine, still has not been able to get back to her home in Slidell, La.,
a New Orleans suburb.  She was visiting Elvis fan/friend Phyl Gordon in
Virginia when Katrina hit.

Man Possessed By Soul Of Elvis" Takes His Life.

A 35-year-old man who believed he was possessed by the soul of Elvis Presley
was found hanging from a tree in woods near his home, an inquest heard. Paul
Box, of King George Road, Chatham, died on May 12, by hanging himself from a
scarf in the woods off Campion Close behind the Bridgewood Manor Hotel. Mr
Box, who was unemployed and single, was discovered by a woman walking her
dog. Just hours before he was found he had seen his probation officer Adam
Crocker following an appearance at Medway magistrates' court.

Mr Crocker told the Gillingham inquest on Wednesday that he had been seen by
a psychiatrist for mental health problems but on that morning he was calm
and showing no signs of stress or anxiety. Mr Crocker added: "He believed he
was possessed by the soul of Elvis Presley and that his aura descended on
him in the evenings and that he experienced him through singing and dancing.
"He had approached the Press in the past but nobody was interested. He also
spent part of his time living rough."

Coroner Roger Sykes, recording a verdict of suicide, heard that Mr Box would
have needed to clamber up a tree in order to tie the scarf to hang himself.
A post mortem examination revealed he had low levels of alcohol, cannabis
and amphetamine but not enough to significantly affect his thoughts. Mr
Sykes said: "His manner was calm and composed on the day but in the past I
have been told his chosen method of dying would be hanging. He took his own
life while suffering an undiagnosed form of mental illness. He was a man who
had real problems in dealing with normal life."
