Besides being in the Guiness Book Of World Records for 18 years for the lowest bass note, in 1955 when he was singing with the Blackwoods he designed the first custom touring bus.

When Elvis was a very young man he was invited to sing in an all black church...the pastor had heard him sing somewhere else and Elvis never thought a second time about it and for a while he sang in their choir. He would go to different radio stations and sing for them just to get to sing.

This is his best Gospel song ❤️ You can feel the spirit.

[@kevincaulder9001]

There is a performance of Elvis singing the gospel song, PEACE IN THE VALLEY, on the Ed Sullivan Show that he wanted to share with the country after a tumultuous period in his early career that didn't reflect his true self. It is magic. Later in his career, he would record two albums of gospel music for which he was most proud. His gospel recordings were the only Grammy Awards he would ever win. He made sure that J.D. Sumner and the Stamps provided the backing vocals for the.music that meant the most him. Listen to, HE TOUCHED ME and VRYING IN THE CHAPEL and try to hold back your tears. I remember with fondness my own Mother as she listened and wept to his tender message of Christ, the Lord, and Heaven above. Amen.

I got to see Elvis 3 times in concert from 1976-1977.

This is shortly before Elvis died. You can see he wasn't the same man. His physical health had deteriorated to the point, that it was just a matter of time. One of the nicest, and most generous people ever. He would give away new cars to poor folk, both Black and white. He bought poor families Homes, and he never told anyone what he was doing. God knew, and now we do too. Elvis was a very Godly man, despite his struggles with prescription drugs for over 40 years. He now sings just for The Lord. God Bless you guys Thanks

[@llschnitz]

Elvis used to get so keyed up for his shows. When he "left the Building" he would go back to his hotel suite. And he couldn't "come down" - his energy level was too high. He would gather his singers together around a piano, and he would ask them to sing gospel songs, and he would sing with them. For Hours and Hours until the sun came up. That was the only thing that would calm him down. He LOVED old time gospel songs. Elvis grew up singing in church, and even sang in All Black Churches in Memphis.
