About those new details of Elvis Presley's life in 'Through His Daughters Eyes' Graceland exhibit

CNN's video goes over a few of the factoids revealed in a new Graceland exhibit, "Through His Daughters Eyes.". But who has time to wait for a medium you can't scan? Here are the new artifacts of the Presley mythology that are revealed:

1. A little white jacket that belonged to Lisa Marie caused some controversy about wearing animals. Or not. Something about the fur being fake or real. The guy describing it is not clear, and the reporter doesn't try to get him to clarify.
2. Baby footprints of Lisa Marie.
3. Elvis's wallet. What does the King of Rock n' Roll keep in there? Same stuff as all of us. He is not a god! Or gods are just as human as us. Right, in the wallet: a picture of Lisa Marie. A BankAmericard. An insurance card.
4. The gold belt that was worn in "Elvis on Tour." Elvis also wore this belt in a photograph with Richard Nixon.
5. A white shoe of Elvis's next to a white shoe of Justin Timberlake's. See the connection? Shoes. White.
6. Elvis's custom-made, handle-able-by-gloves-only gold sunglasses. "TCB," for "Taking Care of Business," is inscribed on the side of the glasses. Katie Perry's Elvis-inspired sunglasses that she wore on an American Idol appearance.
7. Bruce Springstein's jacket. This is featured because he was described as a big ol' Elvis fan and the most famous wall jumper at Graceland. He did that deed in 1976.

Video interview with Elvis Presley's drummer

D.J. Fontana, a drummer with Elvis Presley for 14 years, is on tour. His observation on modern audiences? "They're a little bit quieter," he said in an article on yourhoustonnews.com. And in the same article, some praise of the King and a bit of odd reasoning:

"Elvis’ ability to work the spectators is legendary. Elvis’ talent scaled to a higher plateau of performance, the unreachable star even to those who, with stunning precision, musically pay homage to him. Hence, contemporary audiences are somewhat different than the audiences of yesteryear."

Elvis made the audiences what they were?

The blog afyccim reviews the album 'From Elvis in Memphis'

The blog afyccim reviews Elvis Presley's album "From Elvis in Memphis." Above is a performance of "In the Ghetto," which the reviewer said was the "highlight" of the collection.

 Some portions of the review:

1. "Rolling Stone magazine ranked it #190 on the “500 Greatest Albums of all Time” list."
2. " I love these songs so much because I’ve loved this style of music for as long as I can remember, and it connects me to my dad. Music is at its most powerful and most enjoyable when we have an emotional connection to it"
3. "I really don’t think there are any weak songs on this album. Every track is unique and masterfully arranged, and managed to hold my attention, which is a feat in itself!"
4. "The absolute highlight for me is the album’s chilling closer ‘In the Ghetto’ which always gives me goosebumps. Released as a single, this became Elvis’s biggest hit since 1965. I liked this album more with each listen and I think it has something for everyone."

The Presley Commission says Elvis faked his death; Elvis-visited resort nears redevelopment

This Current Affairs video, above, is the first I have heard of the Presley Commission, but that's what happens when you start mining YouTube. It's quite snarky, but well-edited, and gives us a peek inside the world of some Elvis acolytes.

In other Elvis Presley news, a Las Vegas resort that once hosted the king of rock n' roll has taken a step toward redevelopment by getting a $300 million investment. Maybe Elvis will drop by for a martini by the pool.
