The King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, would have turned 82 tomorrow if he were still alive. He has been gone 40 years yet his army of fans still is quite strong and many will migrate to Elvis' home called "Graceland" today for his birthday anniversary.

I have been to Memphis and toured Graceland several times. In its day, Graceland was considered a mansion, but over the years it has aged to be "just another large home" with property. But its Elvis' property and that makes it special. What's in the home is interesting, but very antiquated. The "Jungle Room" still is my favorite.

One can only imagine what role Elvis would still play in the music business if he were still living today. My guess is it would be "All Shook Up" leaving people with suspicious minds. Sorry, I had to do it!
