Lets Rock.

A Big Hunk O' Love, Girl Next Door Went a Walking, Fools rush in, Runaway, Shake rattle and roll, Suspicious Minds. Sound familiar? Well of course, who could ever forget. Songs that rock the town in the fifties. Those eyes that seemed to be able to talk, that sleek dance move of his, a voice that serenade millions of ladies. Yes, it is Elvis Presley. The Rock and roll legend.

Starting his musical career at a young age of 8, Elvis have became an icon many have come to idolize, impersonate or worship. People at first did not know what to think about the kind of music Elvis was playing. It was a fusion of country and blues with a new rock & roll style. And whenever on stage Elvis mimicked the moves of the blacks. Strange as it might seem when he started out, but people soon went crazy over his music. Even after his death, you can still hear his music being played.

I would say Elvis Presley create a new image and a music different from the others that allowed him to make such a big impact and influence the music industry even till today. Be it the rockabilly rebel, all-american boy, B-movie idol or las vegas superstar you guys have known him for. Elvis presley is the most enduring image in American popular culture.
