The Gospel Side of Elvis
The Gospel Side of Elvis | Joe Moscheo
2 posts | 2 to read
Gospel music was a significant part of not only who Elvis became as a man, but as an artist as well. As Elvis mania continues to consume generation after generation throughout the world, fans still crave new insights into the person of Elvis Presley. This book takes a look at his roots and the role of gospel in his foundational years, as well as the comfort, solace, and strength it offered him in the years of his meteoric rise in popularity. With the addition of "150 Little Known facts about Elvis" and eight unique appendices not included in the original hardcover book, this paperback edition THE GOSPEL SIDE OF ELVIS reveals much about the Elvis so many have yet to discover and is sure to become a collector's treasure.

#RememberingTheKing! Happy #Elvis Day, everyone! I have a LOT of Elvis books...and this is my latest addition to the collection. @MrBook got it for me at the #PhillyMeetup. Celebrating by reading this book, listening to his music, watching his movies and documentaries and concert footage. ❤️🎶🎵

What's your favorite Elvis song? It's hard for me to pick just one, but I'll go with Love Letters. ❤️

JacqMac My mom loved Elvis. After she died, we took a long drive with her ashes, to spread them in her favourite place. We turned up Elvis really loud and sang the whole way there. I love them all, but I think Are You Lonesome Tonight is my favourite. 7y
minkyb Hard to choose...maybe Love Me Tender or in a different mood Jailhouse Rock! 7y
ApoptyGina69 One of our local wineries is showing Elvis movies this weekend in the vineyard! Wish we could go together! 7y

#TBRtemptation post 11! #PhillyMeetUp edition! A @bookbabe Pick! She's a huge Elvis fan, so she naturally wanted this book 😉👍🏻. Everyone knows he was the King of Rock 'n Roll, but not everyone knows that he was a dominant voice in Gospel music as well. This book looks at its foundational influence on the young Elvis. It has a forward by Priscilla, lots of appendices, and lots of pictures. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

quirkyreader I grew up listening to Elvis's gospel music. One of my mum's favourite records was "How Great Thou Art". 7y
robinb ❤️ Elvis...rock AND gospel. 7y
MallenNC I love Elvis, thanks to my parents. Good choice @BookBabe! Return of the King is another good one about him, about his comeback special. 7y
