Music experienced as a group...what could be better...:)

29/04/2024

In the summer of 1948, a woman walked into a drug store in Tupelo, Mississippi, to drop off film to be developed when she realized she had one exposure left.

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/ZdD7Jj7SMspLpmu2/?mibextid=oFDknk

She noticed a young boy outside the drugstore and asked him to pose with his bicycle so she could finish the roll and turn it in.

Only years later did she realize that it was a young Elvis Presley.
