Elvis

1956 Hound Dog In 1956, Elvis made his network television debut with the first of his six appearances on Stage Show, a weekly variety program hosted by Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey. He followed these with two appearances on The Milton Berle Show, the second of which included a performance of Hound Dog that was so provocative (for that time, anyway) that it caused a national scandal.

1969 In the Ghetto Elvis took his elaborate live show on the road in the latter part of 1970 for his first concert tour since 1957. Throughout the 1970's Elvis toured America, breaking box office records right and left, and continued to play an engagement or two per year in Las Vegas and Lake Tahoe. Among the outstanding highlights of this period was in 1972, when Elvis performed four sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden.

1977 Way Down Through the early morning of the 16th Elvis took care of last minute tour details and relaxed with family and staff. He retired to his master suite at Graceland around 7:00 AM to rest for his evening flight. By late morning, Elvis Presley was dead of heart failure. In a matter of hours the shock registered around the world. Elvis Aaron Presley January 8th, 1935 - August 16, 1977
