'On the drums from Dallas, Texas, is hard-working Ronnie Tutt', is how Elvis usually introduced Ronnie on stage, but I don't think that any kind of introduction is really necessary for our readers. Not only did he play drums for Elvis from 1969 to 1977, but he's also a highly regarded session-drummer that has worked with the likes of Neil Diamond and Elvis Costello. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Interview with John Wilkinson, Elvis' rhythm guitarist from 1969 to 1977. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Elvis Meets the Beatles .. It lasted for about two or three hours and there were no cameras taken -- no pictures whatsoever. People say there's pictures. No recordings, nothing like that. The only pictures of that meeting were outside taken by fans and photographers. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Interview with Jerry Schilling by Ken Sharp from Goldmine Magazine. Jerry and Elvis forged a close friendship that lasted from the mid-'50s until Elvis' death in 1977. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au

Very few women in Elvis' life meant as much to him as Ann-Margret. When Elvis later asked his 'foreman' Joe Esposito, what was so special with Ann-Margret, he replied: - She's the female you. | Elvis Presley| biography.elvis.com.au
When Elvis Presley committed to returning to live concert performances in 1969, he needed to recruit, along with back-up singers and other show members, a new core rhythm group. The new players would eventually become known as The TCB Band, a nod to the 'Taking Care of Business' slogan and logo Elvis had adopted for his personal and professional life. James Burton (lead guitar), Larry Muhoberac (piano), Jerry Scheff (bass), Ronnie Tutt (drums) and John Wilkinson (rhythm guitar).| www.elvis.com.au
James Burton is the consummate sideman of his generation. As a lead specialist, he virtually set the standard for country-rock a decade before the genre even existed. A master of understatement, he has elevated the lead guitar fill to art form status. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Interview with songwriter Michael Jarrett who wrote both I'm Leavin' as well as a Christmas song cut at the same sessions, the bluesy I'll Be Home On Christmas Day, which Elvis recorded in 1971. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
It therefore comes as a pleasant surprise to learn that Larry Muhoberac, the man who played keyboards for Elvis for ten years, is an Aussie citizen and currently lives in a delightful home overlooking a valley full of gum trees on Sydney's northern beaches. Larry's story is one of those tales of a series of glorious accidents which led to a long period working for the most famous rock star the world has ever known. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Tony Brown first met Elvis in 1969 at the International Hotel through J.D Sumner. He later became a member of Voice and in March 1975 played piano on Elvis' recording of 'Bringing it Back' on Elvis' 'Today' album. On 21st April 1976, | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Shaun Nielsen Interview ... It's not a secret that Elvis loved the voice of tenor Shaun 'Sherrill' Nielsen. During a 1970 Las Vegas show, Presley introduced him as: 'The greatest tenor in Gospel music'. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
On March 28th, 1998, Scotty and D.J. Fontana performed at an Elvis convention here in Europe. That same evening, I interviewed them both in Scotty's hotelroom. Actually, it wasn't easy to find good questions, as Scotty's That's All Right Elvis and Peter Guralnick's Last Train To Memphis describe the early years in wonderful detail. Nevertheless, the interviews were quite interesting in many ways. Especially Scotty is very straightforward and outspoken, and his viewpoints shed a new light on v...| www.elvis.com.au
As if any introduction is required. Ronnie Tutt was a regular member of Elvis's TCB band from July 1969 until June 1977. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
Jerry Scheff interviewed. So many singers sing a song, and they're thinking about the way they're going to sing - the projection, the phrasing and so forth. When Elvis sang a song, it was just going through him, and it came out to the people that way. He was probably better at that than anybody that ever lived. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
James Burton was born in Dubberly, Louisiana, on August 21, 1939, but he grew up in Shreveport which he refers to as home. He never took any lessons in how to play the guitar. He picked it up from listening and sitting in. His first guitar was not a Fender (the one he is most associated with) but a Rex, and after that a Stella. In 1953, he walked into a Shreveport music store and fell in love with the '53 Telecaster. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
I felt very privileged that James gave me over two hours of his time on his day off, the day after the recent Elvis Presley In Concert show in Sydney Australia. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au

Dominic Joseph Fontana was born on March 15, 1931 in Shreveport, Louisiana. It was in Shreveport that D.J. Fontana started his career - as the staff drummer for the Louisiana Hayride. In 1954, when Elvis Presley was starting to make inroads in the Mid-South region as an up and coming act to be reckoned with, he and his band, which then included the legendary Scotty Moore on lead guitar, Bill Black on bass and Elvis doing the vocals and playing rhythm acoustic guitar, were knocking out audienc...| www.elvis.com.au

For someone who played such a large part in the early years of Elvis Presley, helping provide the music and establishing the hillbilly cat, it's more than a little surprising how few and spread about are the details of Bill Black. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
