Elvis fan letter to President Eisenhower
It is 1958, just like every young men in the USA, Elvis is drafted in to the army. Three female Elvis fans are not positive about his time in the army, but are devistated by the tought that their idol will get a haircut. The teenagers thought that a letter to the president of the USA will abort this horrifying situation.
The letter is as follows:
Dear President Eisenhower,
My girlfriends and I are writting all the way from Montana. We think it's bad enough to send Elvis Presley to the army, but if you cutt his sideburns of, we will just die. You don't no how we fell about him, I really don't see why you have to send him in the army at all, but we begg you please please don't give him a G.I. hair cut, oh please please don't! If you do we will just about die!
Elvis Presley lovers,
Linda Kelly

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
