He changed music forever , John Lennon is quoted as having said "Before Elvis there was nothing".

I have been a fan for a long time .

Cool, could you recommend me some stuff by him?

I got his 50 greatest hits CD and I can't turn it off. The music, his voice, some of the songs is so fun to listen to and others are just mellow and amazing.

When I was younger I couldn't stand it, but now wow, why didn't I like it before? lol.

I like most of his old stuff , his debut album which is simply called Elvis has some of my alltime fave tracks.

Money Honey
I Got A Woman
Trying to Get to You
Paralysed,
Hard Headed Woman,
Trouble,

I would also advise you acquire the soundtrack to
King Creole which IMO was the best movie he ever made
and
GI Blues which IMO is his second best :D

His movie music wasn't always very well written but Elvis could sing a telephone directory and make it sound good :thumbsup:

Other tracks I like are

Suspicion
Bossa Nova Baby
Guitar Man
I Just Canā??t Help Believin

I will post more when I have the time.
