Advantages: Elvis!!!! Really Cheap Also Disadvantages: Hot, dusty and alot of flies
Memphis: the home of the blues, the birthplace of the king of Rock n Roll, assassination place of Martin Luther King, fried food galore and sweet southern hospitality.
Elvis's Heart Break Hotel
During our week stay, we resided in the famous Heartbreak hotel, where Elvis movies are played 24 hours a day, Elvis gift shops are abundant and the pool was heart shaped! The hotel is directly opposite Elvis's home, Gracelands and is owned by the Elvis estate.
We stayed in a room that was adjoined to another and it was huge! There was a living room, with desk, television, sofas, telephone, a kitchenette with fridge, sink, tea making facilities and microwave, followed through into a double en-suite bedroom with another television, plenty of space for clothing and belongings and the bathroom. The room was clean and our towels and free ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: exceptional Review of Memphis
Advantages: For an Elvis fan, it is the ultimate experience. Disadvantages: It is not in the city.
.50)more. Works out much cheaper than buying tickets individually.
Memphis is a really large city and there are many wonderful hotels, shops, departmental stores, restaurants, and anything your heart desires.
We did all the tourist things. The Peabody Hotel, Sun Records, the museum where Elvis has his first recording equipment.
We did Beale Street in the evening. Went into B.B. King's place. We even saw the motel where Martin Luther King Junior was shot.
Yes, there is so much to do in Memphis, but I wanted to write my tribute to the King of Rock'n'Roll.
I urge anyone that is an Elvis fan to take a trip of a lifetime. You won't be disappointed.

Thanks for sharing my wonderful experience with me. Need anymore information, then leave a comment ...

Advantages: brilliant sound to it, I Don;t Know Why Disadvantages: some mediocre songs esprciall "It's All About"
I am not afraid to admit I like Marti Pellow. I think he has a fabulous soulful voice. However I get frustrated with some of the material he has recorded both in his solo career and with the Wets. He has done a lot of MOR, sickly sweet ballads. However when Marti is on full form such as on "Hard To Cry", the highlight of his debut album and more recently "Walking On Water" from the Wet's newest Greatest Hits CD, or even his version of "Heaven Help us All" from his original Memphis Sessions way back in 1986 he is hard to beat. His voice is powerful, soulful and just sends shivers down my spine. When I heard he was releasing the album he has always dreamed of recording backed with a stunning live performance on Jonathan Ross's Saturday morning radio show I decided to buy the album "Moonlight Over Memphis".
Marti describes "Moonlight Over ...
