DIARY ENTRY #1 📖

Dear diary. It’s January 4, 1957. My single ‘Too Much’ / ‘Playing for Keeps’ has just been published. Ain’t that great? I love the fact that these songs are the opposite: one is danceable and has rhythm, and the other is a very sad ballad. Anyway. I just arrived at the Kennedy Veterans Hospital in Memphis with my Cadillac Eldorado, since Colonel Parker told me that I’m gonna be drafted into the US Army. Cliff Gleaves and Dottie Harmony came with me - she’s a real cutie.

Later on, when we’re done here, Dottie will go back to LA while I’ll go back home to Audubon Drive. I’ll probably have to jump over the fence, my parents must still be sleeping…

JUMPSUIT #1 ⚡️ Black Herringbone

It was used for the Season 1 of the Las Vegas residency, which means 57 shows, from July 31 to August 28, 1969. It’s a two-piece suit of the same color, inspired by karate outfits, so Elvis could easily do his moves on stage. The name ‘herringbone’ comes from the pattern that is sewn around the chest opening and the small collar, it ends at the end of the chest opening. Both pants and top are made of a silky fabric. It’s also known as the ‘Black Cossack’ or ‘Black Karate Style’ suit.

Elvis would match this suit with the black scarf with blue and white stripes: he would wear scarves for every concert, and sometimes he would throw it to the audience. The belt was almost every time black macramé, even if once he changed it to the metal concha one.

Elvis: one man, a thousand voices. 🎙

Have you ever paid attention to how much Elvis’ voice changes over the years? 🤓

“Elvis’s voice changed almost on a yearly basis, and I’m not sure anyone has ever come up with the real reason why this was. If we listen to Sinatra, we can say, ‘that’s the 50s,’ or ‘that’s the 70s.’ With Elvis, we can say, ‘that’s 1961’ or ‘that’s 1976’.

Elvis’s voice of 1953 doesn’t sound much like the voice of 1956 (compare the ballad singing, for example). 1960 doesn’t sound much like 1956. And those sweet vocals of the early 1960s really take hold in late 1960s (“His Hand in Mine”, “Wild in the Country” sessions). Those sweet vocals start to disappear in 1963.

By 1965, we have a weird thick, almost unhealthy sounding vocal. That’s gone by 1966, where we get a fuller, darker, deeper sound. The TV show from 1968 through the live recordings of 1960 bring us the edgier, raw sound. That starts to disappear as early as February 1970, and the ‘70s’ voice starts to appear as the year carries on.

1971 brings a weaker sound with more vibrato, but that’s gone by the November 1971 tour. 1972 has Elvis in fuller voice, with powerful vocals - much better than the year before. ‘Aloha’ returns us to the weaker voice heard in 1972, but by the end of 1973 he’s in better voice again - but still not sounding the same as 1972.

1974 sees him with more power again, as does most of 1975. 1976 is so full of ups and downs that you can almost pinpoint the tour, let alone the year. October 1976 finds him in much better voice than February or June, for example. […]

His voice matures and changes when in the army, and again between 1965 and 1966 - both times when we know he was making much music at home and recording himself on his own equipment there. He was trying out new material, new styles, and even trying to expand his range.” (Steve Hoffman)

Remembering actress Barbara Werle who passed away on this day in 2013. 🕊

She acted in three movies with Elvis: the first one in 1965, “Tickle Me” (Norman Taurog), where she played Barbara; the second one was also in 1965, “Harum Scarum” (Gene Nelson), where she played one of the Harem girls. The third and final one was in 1969, “Charro!” (Charles Marquis Warren) where she played Sara Ramsey, the sheriff’s wife.

Good day, folks!

I know that I’ve been missing in action lately, but Instagram removed the feature to share everything even on here.

Now, I’ve decided that, with the new year, I want to be more active also on Tumblr, so I will try to post everything I post on there, also on here! At least the pictures.

Are y’all ready?

Remembering actress Donna Douglas who passed away on this day in 2015. 🕊

Elvis was very fond of her because he could have spiritual conversations with her. Larry Geller recounted: “Even though Elvis respected Donna, he only regarded her in a professional capacity and held her in high esteem.”

“When I brought Elvis in something that he really loved to eat, he was adorable, sitting up against the pillows, cross-legged in his men’s pajamas. He had this cute little dance he did in bed, where he rocked from side to side, sometimes with his eyes closed, with this beatific smile on his face, almost like Stevie Wonder. That’s how much he loved his favorite foods. It tasted so good to him and made him so supremely content. I can still see him rocking left to right in bliss, enjoying his food.” (Thompson, 2016: 86-87) * #elvispresley #presley #theking #graceland #elvis #smile #love #idol #music #iconic #vintage #style #classy #vintagefashion #kingofmusic #rockandroll #sideburns #blessedsoul #rip #elvisthepelvis #memphis #tupelo #soldier #elvislegacy #epe https://www.instagram.com/p/CpDrToQLkz1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Soon [Elvis] and Juliet Prowse began spending time in his portable dressing room. Red [West] and [his cousin] Sonny [West] teased him, repeatedly knocking on the trailer door and saying, ‘Frank [Sinatra]’s coming, Elvis!’ ‘Elvis would open that door and say, «Where is he?», and we would just run off laughing,’ says Sonny. Then one day Sinatra showed up for real. Red went over to that door and whispered, ‘Elvis, Elvis, here comes Frank, man! I promise you.’ ‘Get away from that door, Red.’ ‘I mean it. I can’t talk too loud or he will hear, man. I can’t say any more.’ ‘Frank came up and introduced himself, very nice,’ Sonny remembers. ‘He said, «Hi. Is Elvis in?» And we said, «Yes, sir, he’s going over his dialogue.» Frank knocked on the door, and thankfully Elvis had heard his voice, so when he opened it, Juliet was sitting there prom and proper with her script, and Elvis had his script in his hand like they were going over lines. He said, «Well, hey Frank!» And Juliet said, «Hi, darling!» Everything was fine, and she left and went to lunch with him. Afterward, Elvis said, «You sons of guns, you almost cost me there!»’” (Nash, 2010: 326) * #elvispresley #presley #theking #graceland #elvis #smile #love #idol #music #iconic #vintage #style #classy #vintagefashion #kingofmusic #rockandroll #sideburns #blessedsoul #rip #elvisthepelvis #memphis #tupelo #soldier #elvislegacy #epe https://www.instagram.com/p/CqYmKRmLZcY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
