He we are, the 59th musical road trip for The Way-Back Music Machine. This week, a very special show to celebrate two things, Tony Stuart’s retirement (he is officially retired after a stunning career as the cool teacher) and the release of Elvis, the new movie.

This week, an extended From Memphis to Merseyside. This we we explore Elvis and some key moments. Such as his “comeback “ special of 1968. We also invest his time on The Steve Allen show.

Then the recording of an iconic song, featuring the guitar of Scotty Moore, who supported Elvis. We talk about the time Moore and Elvis broke up for a short time.

All that, plus charts, a commercial and great chat. This week on The Way-Back Music Machine.
