bijzonderheden dvd
Nearly as legendary as his famous client was Colonel Tom Parker, Elvis Presley's manager.
He was mysterious and colorful, and, under his guidance, his one and only client -- Elvis -- reached
unimaginable heights.
Colonel Tom Parker's involvement in the music industry began as a music promoter in the late 1940s,
working with such country music stars as Minnie Pearl, Hank Snow, June Carter and Eddy Arnold, as
well as film star Tom Mix. During this time he received the honorary title of 'Colonel'
in 1948 from Jimmie Davis, the governor of Louisiana. His involvement with Elvis Presley began
when he booked Presley as the opening act for Canadian singer Snow.On August 15, 1955 Elvis Presley
was signed by 'Hank Snow Attractions'.
Shortly thereafter, 'Colonel' Parker took full control and recognizing the limitations of Sun Studios,
negotiated a deal with RCA Victor Records who acquired Elvis' Sun contract for $35,000 on
November 21, 1955.
Parker was a master promoter who wasted no time in furthering Presley's image. Colonel Parker
managed Elvis Presley from 1955 until the singer's death in 1977. Prior to managing Presley,
Parker helped transform Eddy Arnold into a country superstar with his own radio shows, movie roles,
Las Vegas bookings, and an unparalleled resumé of #1 records. In steering the careers of both men,
Parker revolutionized the artist management role, displaying an unprecedented marketing savvy while
exercising near-total control. His energetic, all-encompassing management style created a blueprint
that is still followed today.
