PERSONAL PLAYLISTS FOR ELVIS WEEK
8/14/17

Thirty years ago, Mojo Nixon sang “Elvis is everywhere/Elvis is everything/Elvis is everybody/Elvis is still the king.” He could not have predicted that, three decades later, the owners of Elvis Presley’s catalog would have the power to take his music and spread it everywhere for everybody under the title of Elvis for Everybody.

As part of the annual Elvis Week, the August ritual that includes the date of his death—8/16/77—Sony Legacy has created a playlist generator that takes into account a fan’s level of interest in the King and their current state of mind. Our first shot at the list opened with “Hurt”—does that give you a hint about our early Monday temperament?
