Few singers have aroused more admiration and enthusiasm than Elvis Presley, sometimes bordering on hysteria and madness. The truth is that he was a great singer, rock owes him so much, but fame did not leave him unscathed. Be that as it may, his music continues to be heard with enthusiasm, and the “pilgrimages” to Graceland, where his mortal remains rest, follow one another.
