The Elvis Presley Story

Part 1 of 22

This is Elvis's best story ever. This series told the whole story of the King of A - Z, in Dutch with lots of music. The series dates back to 1987 (formerly 1977) when the AVRO dedicated a 22-hour broadcast, as a homage to Elvis, in her show "The Stone Age". These 22 weeks, each one hour, were told by Hans Schiffers. A very intelligent and warm voice that could convey the story to the listeners for 100%. This series is 22 shows of outstanding and professional quality. Experience Elvis's height and depth points, successes and setbacks and especially the MUSIC.
