Founding members of ESS Earl McRae, Moe Atallah, Ervin Budge

Earl has left the building

The Elvis Sighting Society has lost an integral component of what makes up the fabric of the society. Earl McRae, a founding father of the Society has joined Elvis in Tweed.

Earl knew more about Elvis than anyone. He took any opportunity available to expound on the virtues of the King including a hilarious meeting with him in 1975. Animated, with arms flung wide, he described many times and in great detail, his game of racket ball with Elvis - his eyes twinkling with delight. Earl loved a good story. He loved to hear them and to tell them. And he told them very well.

He will be missed.

Elvis Music

Elvis Presley was a baritone whose voice had an extraordinarily wide vocal range. He had remarkable ability to naturally assimilate different styles. It covered two octaves and a third, from the baritone low-G to the tenor high B, with an upward extension in falsetto to at least a D flat. He was at once a bass, a baritone and a tenor, most unusual among singers in either classical or popular music.
