“John Lennon said “Before Elvis, there was nothing” and that’s a bit of the truth”began the journalist. “He is someone who popularized the music of the black American ghettos and made it popular with a global youth who fell into rock'n'roll with him. James Brown revered Elvis, he said “He taught white people to let go”. This Elvis Presley was an incredible phenomenon…”.

“A phenomenon that doesn’t stop…”revived Apolline de Malherbe. “That’s what’s great, is that his image is intact. There are two Elvises, the younger and the older in Las Vegas but all that is legendary today”continued the musical specialist about the King who would have sold, according to him, “between 600 million and a billion records”. “He’s a completely fabulous, fascinating character. For current generations, it is a dream, a myth. It continues to be listened to on Deezer or Spotify, it has audience records. Elvis Presley continues to accompany us and his music is eternal.”
