做一下这篇英语阅读
Elvis lives.At least he does today,in the hearts of tens of thousands showing their faithful love for the King on the 34th anniversary of his death.Refusing to let go of fond memories,fans are once again flooding to Graceland,Elvis’ house.This annual event is informally known as “Dead Elvis Week”,an almost religious journey in memory of Elvis’ death on August 16,1977.
Feeling like a cross between an Easter night and Mardi Gras,the week of sadness is hardly a sad affair.In fact,it includes all kinds of parties,concerts,and memorials.The highlight,however,is a candlelight night that more than 10,000 fans from all over the world took part in.In twos and threes,they walk up to the small poolside garden where Elvis is buried.“The King of Rock’n’ Roll” may be dead,but for these devotees,he is never truly gone.
Elvis Aaron Presley wasn’t born a king.As a matter of fact,he grew up dirt-poor in rural Tennessee.Legend(传奇) has it that Elvis was working as a truck driver in Memphis when he made his first recording:a late birthday gift for his mother.Later,when the owner of Sun Records,Sam Phillips,heard Elvis’ stirring voice,he thought he had finally found what he had been looking for — a white man who sounded black.Phillips boasted(夸口) that with Elvis on his label,he would make a million dollars.
Early Sun recordings had Elvis on songs and guitar,supported by another guitar and a stand-up bass.He was playing the kind of material he would one day become famous for:blues and country songs.It was a long way from the white jumpsuits and Las Vegas-style concerts everyone now connects with Elvis.But those early recordings helped what the world now knows as rock’n’roll come into being.
