Description
Shy and persistent were the words most often used to describe Elvis Presley. It was in the early 50s that his legendary patience was rewarded when, after hours of rehearsal, he suddenly launched into "That's All Right, Mama" in a burst of freedom. Guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black quickly followed suit. From then on, rock and roll would never be the same! From his childhood in Mississippi to the end of his life in Memphis, we discover the different chapters of the short and intense existence of a man who left his mark on the history of rock, as well as on America and the whole world. This beautiful reference book, created and illustrated from official archives from Graceland, is a testimony as rare as it is precious for all fans of the King.
