Yep, he would have been 74 today, born on 8th January 1935, Tupelo, Mississipi, born shortly after his twin brother Jess Garon, who sadly died during birth complications.
Yes indeed, brought up listening to his music and remember waiting with anticipation to hearing each new release (usually on crackly old Luxemburgh) then cadging the money to buy it.Lots of great memories. My choice:' Trouble ' and 'It's Now or Never'.

The man is my hero (not ashamed to admit it either)
I have different favourites from different era's, for instance for vocals and sound, Love Me from the 50's is awesome, where as Polk Salad Annie, live in the 70's is just outstanding.
60's, obscure stuff like Edge Of Reality & Long Black Limousine etc do it for me (apart from the normal chart stuff he had)
As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Charlton mornin'
A poor little football team is torn
In the Valley
And its manager cries
'cause if there's one thing that he don't need
it's a season in divison three
In the Valley

"Mystery (what the first team do in) Train(ing)"

RIP the King, thank you for the music.
