Today is the 30th anniversary of the death of The King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley. After all these years, he’s still The King. No one comes close. He was one of a kind.

The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!

Great pics of The King! Still hard to see him go downhill…
My TT is about BED!
I appreciate that you included only pictures of the “real” Elvis - who he was before the image became a caricature - the “Los Vega” Elvis was a sick man on his way to an early death.

Great collection of photos.

One of my favorite memories from college was picking up one Summer day and heading to Memphis and Graceland with two friends. I’ll always remember when he died, but I’ll always treasure that special day in Graceland. Of course, I also remember the staff applauded when we left…
I also posted about Elvis, his home Graceland. I bought my first Elvis record in 1957 I guess, he was already famous in Germany but not yet in other European countries.
Those are a great collection of pictures. I really liked your TT this week.
Well, hey baby. Want to come up and have some peanut butter and banana sandwiches?
Quie a few Elvis fans among the 13ers, it appears. You have the best photos!
