  9. Great article, Brian! Thank you for posting it. One of the highlights of my first visit to Memphis (apart from Elvis, of course), was my visit to the Civil Rights Museum. It certainly opened my eyes to the awful ways in which the black people were treated in the USA at that time and the extent to which there was racial segregation.

  16. Memphis Horns Grammy Award: While RCA Legacy's "Young Man With The Big Beat" sadly did not win a Grammy this week, The Memphis Horns' Wayne Jackson and Andrew Love both received a Lifetime Achievement Grammy award. Only one other group of "backing musicians," Motown's Funk Brothers, has ever been recognised with the honour. Both Wayne Jackson and Andrew Love's wife made very emotional and touching speeches when receiving the awards acknowledging their love of music - and each other. Wayne Jackson was the diminutive spitfire on trumpet and Andrew Love the lanky, laid-back cat on sax. Together, as The Memphis Horns, they made beautiful music for five decades. They were forever just out of the spotlight, sidemen was the term, but their sound was front and center, furnishing the heart, soul, and ballast behind hit records by Elvis Presley, Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, James Taylor, U2 and countless others. Trumpeter Wayne Jackson, 70, is still doing session work when asked, however Saxophonist Andrew Love, half of the famed Memphis Horns, could not attend the Grammy ceremony as he struggles with Alzheimer's Go here for EIN's exclusive interview with Wayne Jackson about his time with Elvis. http://www.elvisinfonet.com/interview_waynejackson.html (News, Source;ElvisInfoNetwork)

    BMW’s New Olympic Partnership Ad Gives Elvis a “10”: Elvis Presley’s “A Little Less Conversation” JXL Remix is headlining on BMW’s newest television ad. Promoting its new 3 Series while advertising BMW’s partnership and support for the upcoming Olympic Games in London, the ad features no spoken words but the voice of Elvis. The ad is high-energy, switching between shots of the hot new sports performance vehicle and top athletes in many sports including gymnastics, diving, relay, and fencing. 23BEUluKheY (News, Source;EPE) It's a fantastic ad :dance:
