Editor's note

Elvis Presley, the King of Rock and Roll

His voice and stage presence defined a generation, from 'Hound Dog' to 'Can't Help Falling in Love'.

For a quick sense of his range, listen to 'Hound Dog' and 'If I Can Dream'. They capture the raw energy and later depth that made him matter.

Elvis Presley's music reshaped American culture in the 1950s and 1960s. Songs like 'Hound Dog' and 'Can't Help Falling in Love' broke barriers and became anthems for teenage life. His Sun Records sessions in Memphis sparked a revolution that still echoes today.

He started recording at Sun Records in 1954 with 'That's All Right'. Over the years, his sound moved from rock and roll hits to ballads like 'Unchained Melody'. The 1961 version of 'Can't Help Falling in Love' showed his lasting appeal.

Archive material and source history

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi in 1935. He started recording at Sun Records in Memphis when he was 19, working with Sam Phillips. His early singles like "That's All Right" mixed rhythm and blues with country in a way that caught people's attention.

Songs like "Hound Dog" and "Heartbreak Hotel" became hits in the 1950s. He recorded "Can't Help Falling In Love" in 1961, and it became one of his most recognizable ballads. His backing band in those early years included Scotty Moore on guitar, Bill Black on bass, and D.J. Fontana on drums.

He recorded hundreds of songs over his career, from rock and roll to gospel. Some of his other well-known recordings include "Unchained Melody," "Are You Lonesome Tonight?," and "My Way." He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.
