Elvis Presley

In 1935, on January 8, the future king of the scene, Elvis Presley, was born. Since childhood, he was surrounded by religion, poverty and music. On his 11th birthday, Elvis received a guitar instead of the promised bike, which was beyond his family's means. Then he and his family moved to Memphis, where he became even more interested in blues and contemporary music.

At 18, Presley decided to visit Sam Phillips's record company, where he recorded his first songs, "My Happiness" and "That's When My Heartache Begins".

Later, in 1954, Sam himself plans to record several songs for Sun Records, and calls for this familiar guitarist and bass player, and in search of a vocalist decides to try Elvis.

The first single "That's All Right" was released on July 19, 1954 and, thanks to almost continuous airplay on the radio, sold 20,000 copies.
