Listen "July 30th in Elvis History"
Episode Synopsis
It's July 30, and on this day in 1954, Elvis Presley made his professional debut concert in Memphis at the Overton Park Shell. Though he was so nervous his legs shook, the crowd went wild as he performed his two songs, with Sun Records' Sam Phillips, Dixie, and his parents all in attendance. In 1955, Elvis took the stage at the Peabody Auditorium in Daytona Beach, Florida, performing two shows at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. By 1960, Elvis’s album *Elvis is Back* reached No. 1 on the UK charts, marking his strong international appeal. In 1976, Elvis performed at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in New Haven, Connecticut, continuing his long and storied live performance career.
