Saturdays 7 pm – 10 pm ET on Bill Rock's Elvis Memories
Replay Wednesdays Midnight (12:01 am) ET
Saturdays 10 pm – Midnight ET on Soundtrack Saturday Night
Replay Tuesdays 10 pm ET


Bill Rock is a longtime Elvis fan: "When I was nine years old, I heard him on the radio, and I asked my mother to buy me 'Heartbreak Hotel,'" which he notes was The King’s first million seller. "Of course, like every American boy, I followed him through hit records, the army, his movies and concerts. He was rock and roll's first superstar." Bill, who has been on the radio since the '60s, was the first DJ whose voice was heard on Elvis Radio when we first launched, and he’s been here ever since.

Fridays 3pm-7pm ET
Sundays 7 am – 8 am ET on The Original Elvis Hour
Sundays 9 pm – 10 pm ET on The Original Elvis Hour
 "GK Replay" Mondays 8 pm - Midnight ET & Wednesdays 3 am - 7 am


George Klein first became aware of Elvis when he was 12 years old. But where most other fans first heard Elvis on the radio or saw him on TV, GK experienced him in school – they were classmates! “He was my best friend,” George recalls. He lists his favorite song as “Don’t Be Cruel,” and has had many times to spin that particular track – he’s been in radio for nearly 50 years!


 

Argo

"Spreadin' That Memphis LUV!"

Argo | argo@elvis.com
Weekdays 7 am – 2 pm ET
Saturdays 7 am – 2 pm ET

When Argo was 8, he went to Graceland for the first time. It was a huge experience for the kid: “I cried when I got home and listened to ‘Suspicious Minds’ over and over.” Later on, he started dressing like The King, and also mastered the fine art of the lip curl. Argo’s current favorite Elvis songs are “Such A Night” and “First In Line,” and his favorite album is 1960’s Elvis Is Back.
 

Doc Walker

"If Elvis Didn't Do It....Screw It!"


Doc Walker | docwalker@elvis.com
Saturdays 2pm-7pm & Sundays 3pm-7pm ET


Doc has worked in radio “on and off for 25 years.” He's a huge Elvis fan, so getting to play music from The King 24-7 is a huge thrill. “My favorite song changes constantly, but right now it is an outtake recording of ‘When It Rains, It Really Pours,’ and my favorite album is Elvis Live At The International from 1969.”
 

TY

"Boy, you can't be drivin' up that driveway!"

TY | clubty@elvis.com
Monday-Friday 8 pm – 3 am ET

In 1957, TY heard his parents complaining that “Elvis is corrupting the youth of America!” From that moment, his path was set, and he soon embarked upon a career in radio. Of course, it took a few years before SIRIUS launched the first and only 24-7 Elvis Channel, but we’re glad everything worked out in the end. TY cites his favorite Elvis moments as “Stranger In My Home Town,” the extended jam on “Merry Christmas Baby,” anything recorded in Memphis. But he points out that “If it weren’t for ‘That’s All Right Mama,’ we wouldn’t be here right now!’”
 

Big Jim

"Live at Graceland Saturday Afternoon!"

Big Jim Sykes | bigjim@elvis.com
Monday-Thursday 2pm-8pm ET


Big Jim – The Memphis Microphone Man – has been working in radio for 26 years. His mother told him stories about seeing Elvis on the Louisiana Hayride back in 1955. He lists “Mystery Train” as his favorite Elvis song, and the 1956 album Elvis Presley as his favorite LP. Besides hosting his own show, he also produces and engineers for George Klein’s show.

Dave Shelby

"Elvis Radio's Sunday Morning Quarterback!"

Dave Shelby | daveshelby@elvis.com
Sundays 10 am – 3 pm ET

Dave favors early Elvis, particularly the Sun Records era. “Elvis is about more than music,” he says. “Elvis was a milestone in American culture. His music symbolized the coming age of the baby boom, and set the stage for the rebellion to come in the following decades. He’s also a great Memphian!”
