At the end of the movie it says a few years after Elvis died, the Kernal was sued for financial abuse of Elvises funds. They settled out of court. I feel sure that guy stole some of Elvis's money.
A lot of performers and musical artists have been taken by shady promoters and managers. I see programs about it on tv and on my stations.
My sister Kathy has perfect pitch and a beautiful voice but I am glad she never tried to perform in that way. She gets paid to sing and play the piano at weddings and church services. She gives piano lessons in her home.
For a while, she worked for the school district playing the piano for Choir class. She has a lot to say about the music business. She did not like the guy who played Elvis in this movie because he doesn't look like him and I agree he did not look like Elvis.
She has had a few young people at church ask her for advice on getting into the Christian music business she always says, do you know how tough it is to get seen today by any manager promoter in Christian music?
Elvis did start in the black Pentecostal church, technically I have read it was an Assembly Of God church,I am sure he learned a lot about music there.
The real thing
This is Dan from Roseanne Show doing Jailhouse Rock I always got a kick out of watching this so I am putting it up too.
