Elvis Presley was born on January 8, in Tupelo (Mississippi, United
States) in a poor family.
And maybe that was the key to its success
because the legend has it that when the young Elvis Presley was 11 years
old he asked his parents for a bicycle as a gift, but these, fearful for their
physical integrity and the impossibility of making such a large outlay ,
they convinced him to finally opt for a guitar.
Perhaps we are facing one of

that young apprentice guitarist would become one of the most important
figures of popular customs of the twentieth century.

issues that have become part of the collective imagination as' Suspicious
mind ',' Love me tender ',' Can not help falling in love with you ',' Jailhouse
rock ',' Viva Las Vegas', 'A little less conversation' or 'Do not be cruel'.

Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley nació el 8 de enero de en Tupelo (Mississipi, Estados
Unidos) en el seno de una familia pobre.
Y puede que fuera esta la clave de
su éxito porque cuenta la leyenda que cuando el joven Elvis Presley tenía
11 años pidió a sus padres una bicicleta como regalo, pero estos,
temerosos por su integridad física y ante la imposibilidad de realizar un
desembolso tan grande, le convencieron para que finalmente se decantara
por una guitarra.
Quizá estemos ante uno de los hitos involuntarios más
importantes de la historia de la música, ya que ese joven aprendiz de
guitarrista se convertiría en una de las figuras más importantes de la
cultura popular del siglo XX.
El estilo de Elvis Presley es inconfundible todavía hoy.

musical ‘made in Elvis Presley’

Presley. Su primer disco vio la luz en , pero todavía hoy se siguen
publicando recopilaciones con sus canciones más sonadas.

inventor del rockabilly (un género que fusiona la música nation con el
R&B) es el responsable de temas que se han convertido en parte del
imaginario colectivo como ‘Suspicious mind’, ‘Love me tender’, ‘Can’t help
falling in treasure with you’, ‘Jailhouse rock’, ‘Viva Las Vegas’, ‘A little less
conversation’ o ‘Don’t be cruel’.
Únicamente los Beatles y Garth Books han vendido más discos en Estados
Unidos en toda la historia que Elvis Presley y su prolífica carrera incluso le
llevó a hacer sus pinitos en el mundo del cine.
Una industria para la que
trabajó bastante en los años 60 filmando películas y creando bandas
sonoras.
King Creole (El barrio contra mí), Love me tender o El rock de la cárcel son
algunas de las películas que figuran en la filmografía de Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley también fue el protagonista del primer concierto transmitido
por televisión a nivel mundial a través de satélite.
Unos millones de
personas vieron en directo Aloha from Hawaii. Eso fue en , cuatro
años antes de que falleciera a los 42 años de edad. La última etapa de
Elvis Presley se caracterizó por sus problemas de salud provocados por un

supuesto ataque que acabó con la vida del rey del rock and roll, que fue
