Number forty-seven said to number three "You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see" "I sure would be delighted with your company" "Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me"

Number 47 just asked number 3 to engage in homosexual sodomy.

#3 had to be Elvis.

“Elvis was prettier than most women...”

Female inmates can be housed in the same prison as males. Especially at the county/parish level.

1968 comeback performance of Jailhouse Rock.

Jailhouse Rock ‘68

Time can be a weird and cruel bitch.

It’s both hard to believe this was 11 years after the song was first released, and that he would be dead less than 9 years later and remembered as fat and washed up.

1957:



1968:



1977:

The stripped-down, theater-in-the-round concert segments of the Comeback Special (I actually wished it was only that rather than the choreographed musical numbers) presaged MTV Unplugged.

And while Elvis was noticeably insecure regarding his lack of musical sophistication, he died just as stripped-down, three chord rock was on the return in the late 70s.

Baw went down the wrong road in the 60s. You look at pics of him and Johnny Cash and can tell both did some hardcore shite which took a huge toll on their physicalities.
