Elvis Presley
The Rebel Years
The immortal Elvis Presley (19351977) is shown here in
his early years from 1954 to 1960 when he still had the
unrestrained power of a naive, exceedingly charming Southern
boy who was slowly losing his innocence. In these early years,
Elvis, with a few irrepressible hip gyrations, became a
scandalous heartthrob, teen idol, and rebel who captured the devotion
of millions of fans.
The introduction is by the legendary music critic
Lester Bangs (19491982), whose essays in magazines like
Rolling Stone, Cream, and the Village Voice mark him as one of the
most influential pop critics of the seventies.
