Saw the "Elvis" movie yesterday.
I didn't realize he was friends with B.B. King and how comfortable he was in predominately Black blues clubs in late 1950s Memphis. I hate to date myself but I saw B.B. King at the Great Southern Music Theater in Orlando in 1977. I had a chance to see Elvis at the Eddie Graham Sports Stadium in Orlando around the same time but he belonged to my older cousin's generation, not mine. I came of age in the 70s. As an aside I can remember where I was when I learned he passed. I was at Daytona Beach.
