"Elvis Presley’s “Hound Dog” (1956) is one of the biggest and most instantly recognizable pop songs in history. It’s a song so closely associated with the King of Rock and Roll, in fact, that many may mistakenly assume that it was a Presley original. In fact, the story of the song that gave Elvis his longest-running #1 hit (11 weeks) in the summer of 1956 began four years earlier, when “Hound Dog” was recorded for the very first time by the rhythm-and-blues singer Ellie Mae “Big Mama” Thornton in Los Angeles, California."

Elvis was a fan of Big Mama Thornton.

Nearly everyone on this planet knew who Elvis was.

No one else came close.

Rest In Peace: KING.

Elvis eclipses all other rock performers and is universally acknowledged as the King of Rock n Roll. This is just a fact.

He was dubbed the king. Doesn't make it so.

That was a pretty good movie. Better than a lot of the mess these days.

Here's another one from that movie. Elvis had some swagger...

Alright, asshole, knock it off. Who the heck starts an argument in the music threads anyway? When does that even happen?

Hey fuck you little prick. Looks like you are.
Check out all the songs that were posted. Do they all sound like rock and roll?

That person is only trolling here. He knows in his heart that Elvis is the King. This person is just crying out for attention.

They are way better than the crap that passes for rock and roll today.
