That would have been back in 1977, when he died.
Yes, August 16th, 1977 was a very sad day for many people, especially his fans.
I remember as a child listening to Elvis Presley sing. What a voice that man had! Oh, really? I know that he was an actor in addition to a singer. Very talented man. I also remember the day he died - I was at work as a server in a pub and the news came over the radio. Very sad.
