Elvis Likes Dislikes

Elvis Presley was a big fan of Captain Marvel Jr, and styled his trademark haircut after that of the comic book character. In addition, Elvis Presley's stage outfits (with a half-cape similar to those worn by the Marvels) and his TCB logo (with a Marvel-esque lightning bolt insignia) also show inspiration from Captain Marvel, Jr.

He was proud of his role in King Creole because the part was originally offered to his idol James Dean. Although songs were later slipped into the movie, Elvis Presley considered it his best work.

His favorite rollercoaster was the Zippin Pippin at Libertyland. He would rent out the park to himself just so he could ride it non-stop. Elvis Presley's favorite female singer was Anne Murray and he recorded a version of "Snowbird". His favorite song was "Something" by George Harrison.

His favorite film was "Dr. Strangelove", he was a great fan of Peter Sellers. It is commonly known that Elvis loved gospel music. The last record he listened to was a new album by JD Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, the group that accompanied him on stage. Their record was on Elvis's record player in his bedroom on the day he died.
