Elvis Presley & Lubbock
L.S. has been watching the Elvis mini-series on KLBK. She wants to know if the "King of Rock & Roll" played a show in Lubbock. Oh yeah! In fact, I found 11 performances in Lubbock over a course of 21 years, including one at a car dealership! Many of those performances, though, were in a dance hall that became a huge part of Lubbock`s musical history. It`s February 1955. Elvis Presley isn`t the King, but he is hot, young act, headlining one of the many caravans that travel to every high school gym and dance hall in the South, loocking for stardom. "The Cotton Club had an easy going atmosphere. And there was just something about the Cotton Club that drew in the rock and roll current," says Catherine Prose, director of the Buddy Holly Center. Sonny Curtis told the BBC in an interview, "We were about seniors in high school and Elvis came through the country, man. And he was just starting.. he was brand new. And we all just fell in love with that style of music. Mainly because the girls all liked it." Promoters didn`t have room for Curtis, Buddy Holly and Don Guess to join the gig that night. Johnny Cash was on the bill, as was Carl Perkins, and others. "There`s a story that goes that after one of the performances at the Fair Park, Elvis was convinced to go do a performance at the Cotton Club, in which Buddy and the Crickets opened for him," says Prose. "(Holly) just idolized Elvis because of the moves and because of the rock and roll music he was playing." "Then the next day when Elvis left town, we were in business.. we started booking out!," said Curtis. "Elvis was a mentor for Buddy and after Elvis came to town, Buddy was in business - the band was in business. And rock and roll.. you had to accept it." It`s widely believed that Elvis recorded the demo "Fool, Fool, Fool" in Lubbock that night in 1955. Unfortunately, there`s no real proof because documents were lost in fires at the Cotton Club ... and memories fade over the years. But if you have memories or memorabilia from the Cotton Club`s years in Lubbock, the Buddy Holly Center is putting together a special exhibit about the musical history of the Cotton Club. It`s set to open on July 26. If you can help them with film or pictures, call the Buddy Holly Center at 767-3116. |

'Our intimate stories, never told,' says Priscilla
Family bobbed along in ebb 'n' flow of Elvis's emotions By Tom Walter, May 10, 2005 (Memphis Commercial Appeal) You would think that nearly 28 years after Elvis Presley's death, there wouldn't be a photograph, a frame of performance footage or home movie clip we haven't seen. You would be wrong. "Elvis by the Presleys," though produced independently from the "Elvis" miniseries airing this week, nicely accompanies it, providing reflections on the King by people who knew him well. "Elvis by the Presleys" will air 7 p.m. Friday on WREG-TV Channel 3. Featuring interviews with Priscilla and Lisa Marie Presley, Elvis's cousin Patsy Presley Geranen, Priscilla's parents Paul and Ann Beaulieu, Priscilla's sister Michelle and Memphis Mafia member Jerry Schilling, "Elvis by the Presleys" tries to answer the question: What was day-to-day life with Elvis like? If your answer is "Who cares?" you already have stopped reading. For the curious, though, the answer was: Unpredictable, and often not easy. Or as Priscilla puts it early in the program, "(These are) our intimate stories, never told." Well, not every intimate story and probably not the intimate stories most of us would like to hear about, but intimate enough. David Saltz, who produced this program, also produced 2002's "Elvis Lives" special, in which singers and other pop culture figures talked about Elvis's influence on their lives and career. Soon after that aired, he approached Elvis Presley Enterprises with the idea to turn that special inside out. "My suggestion was that this program take the entirely other perspective: How do we access people from inside the gates of Graceland who were involved on an intimate basis with the life and career of Elvis Presley?" It took a couple of years to produce -- as testimony to that, Priscilla's hair goes from solid color to streaked and back again -- but what we get is a portrait of someone who could do anything he wanted to do, and did. He was a practical joker, he had a furious temper, he was generous, spiritual, gracious. The Memphis Mafia loved being around him. "We wore mohair suits, we had great looking girls, we packed guns," said Shilling. It wasn't as easy living with him if you were a young woman whose sense of self was smothered by Elvis. "You really didn't have a life. You lived his life," Priscilla says. And it was a life filled with male friends. Still, there were some benefits. "The thing that was so endearing about him is he was like a child, he was like a little boy. He brought out the mother in me. We had this wonderful baby talk that he grew up with. That brings so much out of a woman when a man can become that vulnerable and let all his defenses down. And very few people got to see him that way. You couldn't help fall in love with him," Priscilla says. We don't see the baby-talking Elvis, but we do see the water skiing, golf cart-riding mechanical-bull riding, horseback-riding, goofing around Elvis. The special is punctuated with songs that ham-handedly illustrate the points being made. For instance, as Priscilla talks about, and we see footage of, their wedding, we hear Elvis singing "Can't Help Falling in Love" followed by "Hawaiian Wedding Song." She talks about their split as Elvis sings "You've Lost That Loving Feeling," and when she says they remained close after the divorce, we hear him sing "You Were Always on My Mind." Or when Priscilla says she thinks that toward the end, Elvis just gave up, we hear him sing "Bridge Over Troubled Water." You get the idea. If you're fascinated by the private Elvis, you'll be fascinated by this portrait painted by those close to him. Schilling also conducted the interviews with the Presleys. "I tried to think of all the conversations and all the situations when I lived at Graceland, when I traveled with Elvis," he said. "If I hadn't lived that, what would I like to know? Luckily, Lisa and Priscilla and Michelle, Priscilla's sister, even Patsy Presley, who probably has done three interviews in her life, felt comfortable with me." As a side note, Priscilla will appear on "Late Show with David Letterman" on Wednesday. Quentin Tarantino is the other guest. But they likely won't appear together. |
