Elvis Presley’s 80th Birthday

Posted on January 8, 2015 at 7:00 am

Today we pay tribute to Elvis Presley, who was born on this day 80 years ago.

Here he is with Ann-Margret in my favorite of his movies, Viva Las Vegas.

This is the only dance number he choreographed personally.

Here he returns to his first hit, “That’s All Right Mama.”

This is my favorite Elvis song, “Burning Love.”

In his first film, “Love Me Tender,” he sang one of his sweetest ballads.

Happy birthday to the King!

God bless Elvis Presley! Too bad the money-grubbers stole his very soul. But here he is, way back when, at the top of his crazy good game: http://songmango.com/heartbreak-hotel/
