Regarded as one of the most significant cultural icons of the 2. King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King". Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and relocated to Memphis, Tennessee with his family when he was 1. His music career began there in 1. Sam Phillips at Sun Records. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was an early popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat- driven fusion of country music and rhythm and blues. RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who managed the singer for more than two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", was released in January 1. United States. After a series of successful network television appearances and chart- topping records, he was regarded as the leading figure of rock and roll. His energized interpretations of songs and sexually provocative performance style, combined with a singularly potent mix of influences across color lines that coincided with the dawn of the Civil Rights Movement, made him enormously popular—and controversial. In November 1. 95. Presley made his film debut in Love Me Tender. In 1. 95. 8, he was drafted into military service. He resumed his recording career two years later, producing some of his most commercially successful work before devoting much of the 1. Hollywood films and their accompanying soundtrack albums, most of which were critically derided. In 1. 96. 8, following a seven- year break from live performances, he returned to the stage in the acclaimed televised comeback special Elvis, which led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and a string of highly profitable tours. In 1. 97. 3, Presley featured in the first globally broadcast concert via satellite, Aloha from Hawaii. On August 1. 6, 1. Graceland estate, and died as a result. His death came in the wake of many years of prescription drug abuse. Presley is one of the most celebrated and influential musicians of the 2. Commercially successful in many genres, including pop, blues and gospel, he is one of the best- selling solo artists in the history of recorded music, with estimated record sales of around 6. He won three Grammys,[6] also receiving the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award at age 3. Life and career. 19. Early years. Childhood in Tupelo. Presley was born on January 8, 1. Tupelo, Mississippi, to Gladys Love (née Smith; 1. Vernon Elvis Presley (1. Vernon's father in preparation for the child's birth. Jesse Garon Presley, his identical twin brother, was delivered stillborn 3. Jesse was buried in an unmarked grave at Priceville Cemetery in Tupelo. After Presley became famous, he asked people on several occasions to try and find the whereabouts of Jesse. The efforts were to no avail, because no papers marked the spot. Presley became close to both parents and formed an especially close bond with his mother. The family attended an Assembly of God church, where he found his initial musical inspiration. Although he was in conflict with the Pentecostal church in his later years, he never officially left it.[1. Rev. Rex Humbard officiated at Presley's funeral, because Presley had been an admirer of Humbard's ministry.[1. Presley's ancestry was primarily a Western European mix that included German,Scots- Irish, Scottish, and some French Norman. Gladys would often tell the family that before the Civil War, her great- great- grandmother, Morning Dove White, was a 'full- blooded Cherokee Indian', although some genealogists doubt the claim.[1. In her book Elvis and Gladys, Elaine Dundy claims that Presley's great- great- grandmother Nancy Burdine Tackett was Jewish, citing a third cousin of Presley's, Oscar Tackett. However, there is no evidence that the Presley family shared this belief and the syndicated columnist Nate Bloom has challenged the cousin's account, which he calls a "tall tale". Gladys was regarded by relatives and friends as the dominant member of the small family. Vernon moved from one odd job to the next, evincing little ambition. The family often relied on help from neighbors and government food assistance. The Presleys survived the F5 tornado in the 1. Tupelo–Gainesville tornado outbreak. In 1. 93. 8, they lost their home after Vernon was found guilty of kiting a check written by the landowner, Orville S. Bean, the dairy farmer and cattle- and- hog broker for whom he then worked. He was jailed for eight months at Parchman Farm (Mississippi State Penitentiary). Gladys and Elvis moved in with relatives. In September 1. 94. Presley entered first grade at East Tupelo Consolidated, where his instructors regarded him as "average". He was encouraged to enter a singing contest after impressing his schoolteacher with a rendition of Red Foley's country song "Old Shep" during morning prayers. The contest, held at the Mississippi- Alabama Fair and Dairy Show on October 3, 1. Ten- year- old Presley was dressed as a cowboy; he stood on a chair to reach the microphone and sang "Old Shep". He recalled placing fifth. A few months later, Presley received his first guitar for his birthday; he had hoped for something else—by different accounts, either a bicycle or a rifle. Over the following year, he received basic guitar lessons from two of his uncles and the new pastor at the family's church. Presley recalled, "I took the guitar, and I watched people, and I learned to play a little bit. But I would never sing in public. I was very shy about it."In September 1. Presley entered a new school, Milam, for sixth grade; he was regarded as a loner. The following year, he began bringing his guitar to school on a daily basis. He played and sang during lunchtime, and was often teased as a "trashy" kid who played hillbilly music. By then, the family was living in a largely African- American neighborhood. Presley was a devotee of Mississippi Slim's show on the Tupelo radio station WELO. He was described as "crazy about music" by Slim's younger brother, who was one of Presley's classmates and often took him into the station. Slim supplemented Presley's guitar tuition by demonstrating chord techniques. When his protégé was 1. Slim scheduled him for two on- air performances. Presley was overcome by stage fright the first time, but succeeded in performing the following week. Teenage life in Memphis. In November 1. 94. Memphis, Tennessee. After residing for nearly a year in rooming houses, they were granted a two- bedroom apartment in the public housing complex known as the Lauderdale Courts. Enrolled at L. C. Humes High School, Presley received only a C in music in eighth grade. When his music teacher informed him that he did not have an aptitude for singing, he brought in his guitar the next day and sang a recent hit, "Keep Them Cold Icy Fingers Off Me", in an effort to prove otherwise. A classmate later recalled that the teacher "agreed that Elvis was right when he said that she didn't appreciate his kind of singing." He was usually too shy to perform openly, and was occasionally bullied by classmates who viewed him as a "mama's boy". In 1. 95. 0, he regularly began practicing guitar under the tutelage of Jesse Lee Denson, a neighbor two- and- a- half years his senior. They and three other boys—including two future rockabilly pioneers, brothers Dorsey and Johnny Burnette—formed a loose musical collective that played frequently around the Courts. That September, he began ushering at Loew's State Theater. Other jobs followed, including Precision Tool, Loew's again, and MARL Metal Products. During his junior year, Presley began to stand out more among his classmates, largely because of his appearance: he grew out his sideburns and styled his hair with rose oil and Vaseline. In his free time, he would head down to Beale Street, the heart of Memphis's thriving blues scene, and gaze longingly at the wild, flashy clothes in the windows of Lansky Brothers.
