Just finished on BBC Radio 4 is the documentary
"The Elvis Effect".
David Stafford investigates the phenomenon of
the Elvis Presley brand. Thirty years after his
death, Elvis is still winning awards, breaking
box office records and entertaining an
ever-expanding fan base. Academics believe that
he is more culturally significant today than
when he was alive.
Stafford profiles the King and visits some of
the key locations in his legendary life. They
include the two-roomed shack in Tupelo,
Mississippi where he was born, and the famous
mansion, Graceland, where he died.
