Elvis in England mystery deepens
Apr 24, 2008 04:30 AM
Elvis Presley was only in England once, says a spokesperson for the King's
estate, who has denied claims by a theatre producer that the singer
secretly
visited London in 1958 to see the sights.
"Sgt. Elvis Presley made his only appearance in the U.K. when he stepped
off
a U.S. Air Force plane at the Prestwick (Scotland) Airport in March of
1960," Kevin Kern of Elvis Presley Enterprises in Memphis, Tenn., said in
a
statement. "The aircraft made a brief stop to refuel."
For decades, Presley's English fans have accepted that the King of Rock
and
Roll's only known visit to Britain was that quick stop at Prestwick. An
Elvis lounge and a plaque commemorate his stopover
there.......................
