About this listen
Elvis Presleys legacy rocked the headlines this week with Tupelo Mississippi poised to snatch up the historic Tupelo Hardware Store where 11-year-old Elvis snagged his first guitar for 775 dollars back in 1946. According to Elvis Information Network the city council voted unanimously to buy two of the stores three buildings and the adjacent parking lot after the Booth family announced closure by December 31 amid retail woes and family health issues[1]. Mayor Todd Jordan hailed it as safeguarding Tupelos story and a tourist magnet for fans pilgrimaging from Graceland completing their holy trifecta of Elvis sites[1]. This move cements a cornerstone of the Kings origin tale with lasting biographical punch.
Meanwhile Blue Christmas propelled Elvis back onto Billboard charts Forbes notes with The Classic Christmas Album hitting number 55 on the Top 200 while the track climbed to 20 on Holiday Streaming Songs and 21 on Holiday 100 plus spots on Streaming Rock Songs and Global 200[1]. Down under it debuted at 47 on Australias ARIA Top 50 On Replay Singles Chart per Elvis Workshop[3].
