NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Elvis Presley’s Graceland.
Paul Simon sang about going there to ease an aching heart in 1986 on a Grammy-winning album titled, well, “Graceland.” A year later, Philadelphia punk band The Dead Milkmen wrote their own song about a trip to Graceland that was decidedly less reverent, with lyrics like, “Goin’ to Graceland/It’s gonna be fun/We’ll get to see all Elvis’s guns.”
Maybe Graceland is all things to all people.
Elvis bought the large Classical revival
