Here's part of the content - you would like to know it all? Delve into this book today!..... : Presley made what would be his only appearance on Nashville's Grand Ole Opry on October 2; after a polite audience response, Opry manager Jim Denny told Phillips that his singer was not bad but did not suit the program.
...Some of the songs, like That's All Right, were in what one Memphis journalist described as the R&B idiom of negro field jazz; others, like Blue Moon of Kentucky, were more in the country field, but there was a curious blending of the two different musics in both.
...The others would centrally define the evolving sound of rock and roll: Blue Suede Shoes-an improvement over Perkins' in almost every way, according to critic Robert Hilburn-and three R&B numbers that had been part of Presley's stage repertoire for some time, covers of Little Richard, Ray Charles, and The Drifters.
...In her autobiography, Priscilla says that despite his worries that it would ruin his career, Parker convinced Presley that to gain popular respect, he should serve his country as a regular soldier rather than in Special Services, where he would have been able to give some musical performances and remain in touch with the public.
