Elvis Jr.'s talent as a musician and entertainer is a gift to all who enjoy the works of his late father. His loving tribute to his father's works as well as performing his own music will captivate each and every listener. His look, his style, his grace, and demeanor surely show that the King's legacy carries on.

Most people who believe Elvis is still alive believe that Elvis is spending the remainder of his life in solitude somewhere in the United States. To back this up they have suggested that Elvis' middle name is spelled incorrectly on his tomb.[1] However, on his birth and death certificates his middle name is listed as "Aron." Elvis used "Aron" in his life because it was closer to the middle name of his stillborn twin, Jesse "Garon." He attempted to change his name to "Aaron" later in life but discovered that the state already erroneously recognized his official middle name as "Aaron." Elvis' dad, knowing his plans for his middle name, put "Aaron" on his tombstone, instead of the technically correct "Aron." The estate now prefers the use of "Aaron."[2]

Without quite realizing it, Elvis became a sharecropper on Colonel Tom Parker's Hollywood plantation. Parker arranged to have all of his records linked to movie productions, and in the 1960s had to work on between 2 and 3 movies a year; 31 films total. Parker received 25% of Elvis' royalties on the films, 50% after 1967. Songs for the many films included "Queenie Washing's Papaya" [Paradise Hawaiian Style] and "Cotton Candy Land" [It Happened at the World's Fair.] In these films Elvis often portrays a good-hearted rebel who gets the girl in the end; in pop culture too he's thought of as the ultimate individualist. Po' boy with talent rises to the top, becomes King---a modern Horatio Alger with more of a sense of danger. Yet the central paradox is that Elvis really became corporate hired man, a hired hand forced to work for corporate mass media enterprises operating out of in Hollywood, Nashville, Las Vegas, New York, and elsewhere---after he performed the scripts they gave him, he got his "share." "Colonel" Tom Parker certainly let his po' white boy play played the role of the Southern gentleman plantation owner---Elvis even got his own mansion with white pillars in a respectable part of town to prove his success---but the real plantation boss was the "Colonel" and the new plantation/slave economy was America's new media empire.

The beauty of Elvis is that there are so many facets to him, said Scott Williams, the marketing manager for Elvis Presley Enterprises, the name of the company that oversees business operations of the Elvis estate. Williams was in town yesterday speaking to the Nashville Advertising Federation, a local industry group, about how to market a rock legacy long after the celebrity himself has died. "What we want to do is let fans enjoy Elvis in their own way" he said.
