From the French publisher:
"Quand il pénètre dans les studios Sun en 1954 pour enregistrer son premier single, Elvis est loin de se douter qu il va révolutionner la musique et le mode de vie de la jeunesse du monde entier.

Cet album raconte l histoire d un petit gars arrivé de nulle part et qui va devenir la plus grande star du monde. Aujourd hui encore toutes les personnes qui montent un groupe de rock dans n importe quel style lui doivent de pouvoir le faire, qu elles en soient conscientes ou pas. La légende du King brille tout en haut près des étoiles et ne s éteindra jamais."
