Elvis Hit Presley

August 16, 2002 marked the 25th anniversary of the death of Elvis Presley, so for this special "year of Elvis," many events were planned to celebrate his life and his incredible impact on music and the world. The tributes will culminate in RCA's October release of a very special CD package, ELV1S - 30 #1 Hits. This definitive and ultimate Elvis Presley release assembles for the first time 30 of his #1 hits on one CD. Our excellent piano/vocal/guitar collection is the matching songbook to this CD, and includes such chart-topping songs as: All Shook Up * Are You Lonesome Tonight? * Can't Help Falling in Love * Don't Be Cruel * Heartbreak Hotel * Hound Dog * Jailhouse Rock * Return to Sender * Stuck on You * Suspicious Minds * You're the Devil in Disguise * and more - plus the 2002 chart-topping JXL radio edit remix of "A Little Less Conversation" as a bonus.

From the moment that he first shook up the world in the mid 1950s, Elvis Presley has been one of the most vivid and enduring myths of American culture. Last Train to Memphis: The Rise of Elvis Presley is the first biography to go past that myth and present an Elvis beyond the legend. Based on hundreds of interviews and nearly a decade of research, it traces the evolution not just of the man but of the music and of the culture he left utterly transformed, creating a completely fresh portrait of Elvis and his world. This volume tracks the first twenty-four years of Elvis' life, covering his childhood, the stunning first recordings at Sun Records ("That's All Right", "Mystery Train"), and the early RCA hits ("Heartbreak Hotel", "Hound Dog", "Don't Be Cruel"). These were the years of his improbable self-invention and unprecedented triumphs, when it seemed that everything that Elvis tried succeeded wildly. There was scarcely a cloud in sight through this period until, in 1958, he was drafted into the army and his mother died shortly thereafter. The book closes on that somber and poignant note. Last Train to Memphis takes us deep inside Elvis' life, exploring his lifelong passion for music of every sort (from blues and gospel to Bing Crosby and Mario Lanza), his compelling affection for his family, and his intimate relationships with girlfriends, mentors, band members, professional associates, and friends. It shows us the loneliness, the trustfulness, the voracious appetite for experience, and above all the unshakable, almost mystical faith that Elvis had in himself and his music. Drawing frequently on Elvis' own words and on the recollections of those closest to him, the book offers anemotional, complex portrait of young Elvis Presley with a depth and dimension that for the first time allow his extraordinary accomplishments to ring true.
