Elvis Presley; The Great Performances

(published in Details)

Elvis, of course, invented rock ‘n’ roll. And rap too. Elvis invented Judaism and schmaltz both. He invented the guitar and the gramophone, Dilaudid and the DEA, Dylan, Springsteen, Morrissey, Public Enemy, Guns N’ Roses, rock criticism, and the modern milking machine. He was the Singing Brakeman, the Father of Country Music, the Waltz King, the High Sheriff of Hell, the Woman Who Broke Up The Beatles, His Master’s Voice. Regrets ? He had a few. Then again, too few to mention.
