    He wanted to get a rifle, but his mother talked him into getting the guitar instead. Did you know in 1954, Elvis auditioned to be in a gospel quartet, and was turned down? He definitely proved them wrong. Elvis, at only 19, began his singing career in 1954, and by 1956 was an international sensation. Being so young when he started, it is amazing to see that he had many different musical influences. Pop and country were influences at the time, gospel from his family, church, and the all-night gospel concerts that he frequently attended, and the R&B music he heard as a Memphis teen. Elvis went to Sun Records and paid four dollars to make his first record as a gift for his mom, and ended up being discovered. In 1954, Elvis began his singing career with Sun Records label. They were looking for a new sound that blended the best of black music, and the best of white music. Luckily, Elvis helped fit that part perfectly. He ended up recording approximately twenty-four songs at Sun Records Studio. In late 1955, his recording contract was sold to RCA Victor. Elvis’ breakthrough hit was Heartbreak Hotel, released in 1956. With a sound and style that uniquely combined his diverse musical influences, he blurred and challenged the social and racial barriers of the time. He brought in a whole new era of American music and popular culture. Globally, he has sold over one billion records, more than any other artist. His American sales have earned him gold, platinum or multi-platinum awards for 150 different albums and singles, far more than any other artist. His talent, good looks, sexual attractiveness, charm, and good humor made him loved by millions,as did the humbleness and kindness he demonstrated throughout his life. He is regarded as one of the most important figures of twentieth century popular culture (Remembering Elvis, 40 Years

The one component that really defines a musical prodigy is the ability to make a performance dynamic with the audience that's charming and, at times, overwhelming. Elvis Presley's musical talent clearly encompassed all of those characteristics and more. Elvis Presley was a genius. “He did not express himself the way the middle classes do, which is with word play and having the ability to clarify his actions and reactions.
