The singer, who shook up the music world with his hip-thrusting, snarl and soulful delivery of hits like Suspicious Minds, The Wonder of You and You Were Always On My Mind, died in 1977 aged 42.
Thousands of fans of ‘The King’ gathered outside his old home in Graceland on Tuesday night to mark the 40th anniversary of his death with a candlelit vigil.
His ex wife Priscilla, 72, and daughter Lisa Marie greeted fans before the anniversary event in Memphis, Tennessee.
