While it is well known that Elvis Presley and Sammy Davis Jr. were good friends, first meeting in the 1950s, maintaining a friendship through the years, now, we have a fantastic photo via a news paper clipping from Jet magazine, February 27, 1958 showing Sammy in full swing imitating Elvis, and what's more, the clipping tells us that Elvis was sitting in the front row, roaring with laughter. Imitations were a big part of Sammy's shows and Elvis was not left out in this regard, with Sammy sing...| www.elvis.com.au

Johnny Cash talks about Elvis Presley.I remember Elvis' show at the Eagle's Nest as if were yesterday. The date was a blunder, because the place was an adult club where teenagers weren't welcome, and so Vivian and I were two of only a dozen or so patrons, fifteen at the most. Elvis was already making noise in Memphis when I got there in '54. Sam Phillips had released his first single, That's All Right, Mama and it was tearing up the airwaves. | 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
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
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
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

Duke Bardwell worked both on stage and in the studio with The King in the mid-70s, and in all he played bass on 181 concerts. Yet he's always avoided media exposure about his association with Elvis, until now. | Elvis Presley| 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
J.D. Sumner talks about Elvis and tells some amusing and interesting stories about his friend. We also have a great video of J.D.'s tribute 'song' 'Elvis Has Left The Building'. The video is sensational, a brilliantly edited slideshow of images that perfectly match J.D.'s 'song' narration.| www.elvis.com.au

Interview with Charlie Hodge .... I said, 'Hello, Is Elvis there? This is Charlie Hodge'. And Lamar said, 'Charlie Hodge?' And I heard Elvis yell, 'Yeah, Charlie, come on up'. And so, that's how we got together after we got to Germany. | Elvis Presley| www.elvis.com.au
