9. Most Rockabilly Elvis , post - Sun Records - "U.S.Male" (Gene Vincent : "It's just like the old PURE stuff !").
10/ Most Garage Punk Elvis , hands down : "Long Legged Girl (With The Short Dress on)".
11. Proto - Ramones Elvis - "You're So Square (Baby , I Don't Care.) . The great Bill Black could'nt get the bass line the way Elvis wanted it , so ELVIS played it instead. "Take it , EP - One - two - three - FOUR !".
12. Why Jerry Lee Lewis showed up at Graceland with a gun - Elvis cut "T-R-O-U-B -L-E" before he could.
