Then Lightning struck, and everything changed

- HIS LIFE AND THE WORLD WOULD BE CHANGED FOREVER

From Larry Geller - Elvis' Personal Friend / Hairdresser / Spiritual Advisor

I'm always reluctant to read manuscripts about Elvis - over the years, scores of them are offered to me. I do my best to read those that I feel might have some real, authentic merit. Yours, my friend, is one excellent book. You did a wonderful job of researching and putting edition it all together in a readable format that really expresses the brilliance and unparalleled life and career of Elvis Presley.
TCB,

Is Elvis, The King of Rock and roll?- Yes, he is!Rapper Chuck D(Fight the Power) - Doesn't seem to think so.
- So Chuck D, I have the answer as to why for you in this book!
Most people do not know the REAL story of how Elvis became the undisputed King of Rock and Roll.

Until Elvis came onto the scene in 1954, the music broadcast over the radio and sold to audiences was a desert.
It is why John Lennon said:
"Before Elvis, there was nothing."

It is hard-pressed to understand how Elvis could be labeled "The King of Rock and Roll." many people conveniently forget or were never taught about what actually happened, or they are clouded by the constructs of time. By today's standards, those looking at Elvis are not paying attention to the surrounding facts.

Even the 2022 Oscar-nominated Baz Luhman Film "Elvis" failed to capture his first two years from 1954 -1956. The years when Elvis laid down the foundation for Rock and Roll music.

This book provides a historical analysis of how a truck driver from Memphis, named Elvis Presley went from a failed audition on the night of July 5th, 1954, to become the most well-known person in the world. Within two years. Someone who made an impact without any musical pedigree or money.

With meticulously documented and researched details, this book contains all of the answers to that question and more. It not only puts the reader into the shoes of the nineteen-year-old truck driver. The book is an honest discussion of the economics, culture, musical, and historical aspects of the time.

Those looking at Elvis solely by today's standards are not looking at the surrounding facts. They can be hard-pressed to understand how Elvis could be labeled "The King of Rock and Roll." That is because they conveniently forget or were never told about what actually happened, or they are clouded by the constructs of time.

Because Rock and Roll music changed and evolved, it is hard to compare Elvis with any of today's or even Rock and Roll greatest stars at that time. People seem to get lost in the timeline. One could see there might be a case for argument - That, Is If you start after 1956 -. Because before 1956, Elvis blazed a trail for others to follow.

However, rock and roll music did not begin until 1954, which this book illustrates in vivid detail. The answer can be found in the specifics of what happened and what were the causes that ensued between 1954 - 1956. At the time, the music broadcast over the radio was a desert.
It is why John Lennon said: "Before Elvis, there was nothing."

Within two years, Elvis went from the brink of a failed audition to the largest-selling recording artist in the world. He sold Rock and Roll Music to mainstream America. This is Elvis' journey from local Truck driver to his coronation as The King of Rock and Roll.

I hope you will experience the journey again with me as your guide.
