No, bung was right. The king of rock & roll is still alive and his name is Little Richard.

I once heard an interview where Little Richard on television declared that Elvis re-did his songs with no monetary compensation. I don't know how that works but if that's a recording industry thing then the Elvis estate or whoever is responsible for that compensation should pay up.

But then Little Richard said, "I don't care". They're my songs anyway"! That's why he's the king of R&R!
ED....
coming from a man in the know, i bow to ur knowledge of this, I cant argue with what u have stated nor do i wish too.

But i think we can agree that it is Elvis that was widely recognized as the King......
But as i say u being in the land of Rock and Roll i take your word on this.....
cheers cheers
Yes he was!

And for all his fans I am happy to say "Long live the King".
Ed.
and a thank u for dropping bye and explaining things to me.
Drop in any time ...cheers cheers
Sommo, It is hard to immagine now just how much Elvis changed music . His influence is still being felt today .

There was also many who contributed to the Rock & Roll phenomenon But it was Elvis that really drove it into the main stream and made it what it is today .
Frank,
Thanks for calling by.
yes u r right, The influence that he had on todays music and not being around to hear it says something about how good he was.
Of course Bill Hailey, Big Bopper, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, the list is endless.
Great era of music...

cheers to the memories...
so... who's making the jailhouse rock? uh oh
why u r June.....u make any house rock.....

so sorry to hear that....
