I was on a trip one summer and went by Graceland. Decided to stop. Spent half a day there. Worth the time. Had no idea that guy had the awards he had. There is a little building, well not all that little but it was full of them and I mean full. Had some late '50's Cadillacs parked out back in the non-public parking lot. His mother and dad are buried there, and as I recall a place for him too. He did love his mother........that's without saying!
Had some neat memorabilia across across the street including his Douglas DC8 Jet. There is a huge oval table in it where he and his band sat around and hashed out music....I guess. There is a story about just how they got it from the airport to the final resting site.....kinda like moving the Spruce Goose from Long Beach, CA. to it's final resting place....piece by piece.
I took him along with the rest of the artists growing up in the BEE BOP age, not all that special. He did have some goodies.
That has got to be a hard life that wears on you. Yeah you get your kicks with all the attention you get but the workload and traveling, and show after show....Not for me.
