Elvis Aaron Presley, crowned the King of Rock & Roll, left us on August 16, 1977. We’re honoring the legendary Southern singer / actor by sharing this piece from our collection: Joni Lee Mabe, The Official Elvis Prayer Rug, 1988. Lithograph. Morris Museum of Art, Augusta, Georgia; AND by listening to Elvis all day long.

  1. “Suspicious Minds”
  2. “In the Ghetto”
  3. “Can’t Help Falling in Love with You”
  4. “Burning Love”
  5. “Love Me Tender”
