In 1960, I was in the Air Force, stationed in West Germany. I went to Elvis' base to try to see him. He was not at home but I took a picture of the house he was living in. In 1968, at a touch football game, I got his autograph on the picture. It had been eight years. He was excited to see the picture and showed it to his friends.

Did they have black music in the 60's

need more info

Memphis had it's own great music in the 60's. The Guilloteens the house band at the Roaring 60's teen club with thier hit "I Don't Believe", Tommy Burk and the Counts who sang "Cute' and "I Don't Want a Lot", The Barkays "Soul Finger", The Mar-Keys, Rufus "Walking the Dog" and "Can Your Monkey do the Dog", The Box Tops, Isaac Hayes, Larry Raspberry and the Gentrys, The Blazers, the LeSabers, RAndy and teh Radiants plus an infinite number of garage bands. I can't remember all the great groups and musicians were playing in Memphis during the 60's. And J.H. Wallace just for you, "From earth to Venus from Jupiter to Mars everyone knows the position of the stars it the big OK WLOK." And with Stax in Memphis there were many many great black musicians, and bluesmen Furry Lewis comes to mind, and ofcourse BB King. Volumns could be written about music in Memphis in the 60's.
