in november 1948 the Presley family moved from Tupelo to Memphis; in this month there was no farewell concert.
songs performed in school time were all speculations because people don't remember such details after so many years. current hits from that period are possible. it's a pity but I cann't answer the question. colonel snow --------------------  |

the answer is:
Armond Morales - Roger Wiles - Jimmy Murray - Terry Blackwood. the next question is somewhat difficult: John Davenport (co-writer of the song " Fever") is a pseudonym for which well known composer? colonel snow -------------------- |

I have a different line-up in my book. It says that just before Elvis' return to the stage Sherrill Nielsen left The Imperials. Now it was Jake Hess, Jim Murray, Gary McSpadden and Arnold Morales.
The answer to your question is: Otis Blackwell. -------------------- "Life's a paradox! That's two doxes!" (Elvis on June 19th, 1977)

I found the answer on page 275 in Recordings sessions III (Tunzi);
perhaps Tunzi is wrong. your answer to my question is right; I think the next question is not difficult: who was the first singer (male or female) who sang a duet with Elvis? (no backing vocal group to mention!!) colonel snow -------------------- |

In this March of Dimes promotional photograph, Elvis Presley receives his polio vaccination in 1956. The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History will mark the 50th anniversary of Jonas Salk’s introduction of a successful polio vaccination with “Whatever Happened to Polio?,” a one-year display scheduled to open on April 12, 2005, the anniversary of the announcement of an effective vaccine.

the answer is correct altough for promotional reasons when Lisa Mary got the vaccine shot it seemed that Elvis got another one in 1968.
next question: before Scotty & Bill joined Elvis they play in another band. what is the name of that band? colonel snow -------------------- |
