Overview

In 1953, a young man steeped into a recording studio to cut a disc as a present for his mother. A year later, he returned to Sun Studios, and musical history was made. Mike Freeman takes us on a personal guided tour of the Elvis sites. Under his expert and enthusiastic guidance, we visit around 50 locations, including not only the famous Sun Studios, Elvis' high school and teenage home, but everywhere Elvis. We cruise from the eateries where the King used to hang out with his ""Mafia"" buddies, to the karate school where he perfected the kicks and punches that he was to incorporated into his stage act. We meet the Memphis folk who tell you how it all came about.
