Elvis Presley was one of the biggest sensations to ever hit all of rock and pop history and he literally took the world by storm.
With his unique interpretations of the songs he performed, he brought a fresh energy and vibrance to music and a performance style that was considered sexually provocative for his time.
Having always played with great bands, Elvis always had great orchestration with his music using unique arrangements that really set his music apart.
His warm, smooth vibrato deeply connected with audiences along with the story of how he rose from poverty to fame.
Elvis remains the best-selling solo music artist of all time, in addition to having the most gold and platinum albums of all time, and the most albums ever charted on the Billboard Hot 200.
Today I’ll be looking at a live performance of “Jailhouse Rock” as I break down what stood out about Elvis for me. I’d love to hear your thoughts too so please be sure to share what you thought made him great.
