“Jailhouse Rock”

by Lynette Mueller on April 23, 2010

As you can tell from the titles of several of my most recent posts, the focus has been on Elvis Presley song titles. Elvis Presley has had such an influence and impact for Memphians, it only seemed fitting to honor the King that way.

YouTube is a video sharing Web site on which users can upload, share, and view videos — and there are literally thousands of uploaded videos to choose from!  The following video is from YouTube. Please enjoy this rendition of  Jailhouse Rock performed by Elvis Presley in 1957.  The song as sung by Elvis Presley is #67 on Rolling Stone’s list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and was named one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.

Look for more posts and videos about Elvis Presley in the coming weeks!
