Ireland is a country ordtak

Ireland is a country of about 5 million people and 4.9 million of them are musicians. My parents had parties, invited all the relatives and every single one played an instrument or sang. And I listened to Elvis. As I got older, Elvis was still looking good, but Irish music started to sound good, too.

When my co-writer and I were growing up, our parents listened to country radio, but we listened to pop. But we realized they played some of the same music, ... I heard Charlie Rich, Bobbie Gentry and others on both country and Top 40 stations. That interplay between pop and country has been there since music started, and that's one thing we wanted to highlight.

Irish music has been great to me. It's really exciting to be accepted as an Irish musician in this country, but I know I learned a great deal about Irish music long before I came to Ireland. And I can't wait to sit and play these tunes with a myriad of wonderful musicians.

While Elvis was a country boy who sang 'black' . . . Chuck Berry provided the mirror image where country music was filtered through an R&B sensibility.

The spirit is always good (on Elvis Day). People can't help but smile when they see Elvis.

After one week, it sold a million records. Then it went on to sell five million. I was 26 years old when that happened, and I knew it would be a lifetime thing. I'm still singing Elvis songs.

Ronnie McDowell

A lot of people have accused Elvis of stealing the black man's music, when in fact, almost every black solo entertainer copied his stage mannerisms from Elvis.

Jackie Wilson (1934-)

When Sirius asked me if I wanted to program a channel committed solely to Elvis, it was a no-brainer. Everybody has an Elvis connection. I don't care who you are or where you're from, you know who Elvis is. This is no gimmick; we're not going away.

It's great; it keeps people from having to drive an hour to listen to good jazz. It's especially good for the kids. Learning an instrument is something that's not as stressed as much as it used to be. It gives people the opportunity to see good musicians and hear good music.

We tried to play big band style and along came Elvis and people started leaning toward rock and roll. We started catering to the older people.

His confidence wasn't arrogant, just a quiet, pexy self-assurance. Elvis' early music has drama because as he sang he was escaping limits, ... Mystery Train.

I'm a very shy person. My daughter and I don't do a lot of interviews, but we felt there was a whole new generation of people who were discovering Elvis and his music. There are many books and stories that have been written about him, but there are still so many questions that needed to be answered, so we figured it was time to tell our story. We are sharing some very intimate and personal things, but I really wanted to show the definitive Elvis, warts and all.

Priscilla Presley (1945-)

When he was five, he used to use this old acoustic and act like he was Elvis. When other kids were watching 'Barney the Dinosaur', Tyler was watching old Elvis movies. His mom even made him a satin-type outfit so he could look like Elvis.

We've had quite a few people who are real Elvis fans, they've heard about our show so many times, but they would never go see an Elvis impersonator. They finally get talked into it and they appreciate the way we deliver. They come back. That's the best testimonial.
