Elvis had an twin, Jesse Garon, that died at birth. Elvis didn't have any other siblings, he grew up as an only child. Elvis said that he always felt his brother was with him and that he could talk to him, that Jesse looked out for him. Not quite a year after Gladys Presley's (Elvis' mother) death, however, Vernon Presley (Elvis' father) was remarried to a woman named Davada "Dee" Stanley. Dee had three sons from her first marriage. Elvis was considerably older than the three Stanley boys and became something of a father-figure to them. In later years, Bill, David, and Rick Stanley became part of the "Memphis Mafia," acting as aides and confidants to Elvis.

What are the lyrics to Elton John's Crocodile Rock?

I remember when rock was young,

Me and Suzie had so much fun

Holding hands and skimming stones

Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got

Was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock

While the other kids were rocking around the clock

We were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well crocodile rocking was something shocking

When your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will

Oh Lordy mama, those Friday nights

When Suzie wore her dresses tight and

Crocodile rocking was out of sight

Laaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaaaaah!

But the years went by and the rock just died

Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy

Long nights crying by the record machine

Dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans

But they'll never kill the trills we've got

Burning up the crocodile rock

Learning fast as the weeks went past

We really thought the crocodile rock would last

Well crocodile rocking was something shocking

When your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will

Oh Lordy mama, those Friday nights

When Suzie wore her dresses tight and

Crocodile rocking was out of sight

Laaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaaaah, la la la la laaaaaaaaaah!

Who is the brown dirt cowboy from Elton John's album Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy?

I was listening to this song this weekend and found this searching for the meaning myself. I have a feeling that a Brown Dirt Cowboy is a heroin addict. "While little Dirt Cowboys turned brown in their saddles" would be heroin in a spoon turning brown when heated.

What is a good income per year?

Answer: The Median Household Income in the United States for 2007 was 50,233 USD. "Good" is a highly subjective term. If this median amount is more than what your yearly household expenditures are, then that's "good". A good income is something that you know will eventually settle your debts or save you some money for a holiday or for a world travel. It depends on you and how you look and spend it. So if your a late teen early 20 don't spend all your money on the most up to date stuff. Only spend it on your nessecities, an odd takeout won't hurt but watch what you do. A good income isn't 5 million a day, it's what you need. This means it varies between people. Answer: In Charles Dickens' "David Copperfield" Micawber rightly states "Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery."

In modern terms, if your living expenses are held below your income, you have a good life. People can always spend more than they make and be unhappy.

What Grateful Dead album does Althea appear on?

My mother was a Dead Head and went into labor at a 1983 Halloween night Dead show in San Francisco. She wa dressed a pumpkin.

I was born on midnight at St. Mary's hospital, and she named me Althea after one of her favorite songs.

Here's the story of the song's meaning that she always "told me"...

So, Jerry Garcia is in jail for drug dealing and he is faced with the choice of ratting his friends out for a lesser sentence. He's torn on what to do when his friend Althea comes to visit him.

She tells him to calm down, to take it easy...if he decides to name his friends, when he gets out he'll have nowhere to rest his head.

He has an open ear to her advice but also starts to see her visit as an advancement. He tells her that he was born to be a bachelor and when she doesn't seem to care one way or the other...he then has affections for her.

That's the loose version of how my mom has always told the story to me, and ill continue to believe in that version...

When I read each line of the song, it makes perfect sence to me. It's wild and poetically imaginative, just how I see my mother.

You could try listening to some Pearl Jam, Especially their album Ten is extremely good and considered a masterpiece by many. Notable songs to check out: Alive, Even Flow, Jeremy, Porch, Rearviewmirror If you like a little harder rock than Pearl Jam has to offer, you could go for Stone Temple Pilots. Also, if you like your rock to be a little faster and more joyful, you could try listening to "The Offspring" Although they're mostly considered to be a punk rock band one could argue about their style of punk rock (especially in their early works) could fall in under the category of "Hard Rock" Notable songs to check out: Self Esteem, Come Out And Play, The kids Aren't Alright, (Can't Get My) Head Around You If however, you like to listen to some not-so-known well known music you could also try listening to a band named Jane's Addiction. Their style is somewhat similar to classic Hard Rock bands such as Gun's N' roses (which you could also check out) Notable songs to check out: Just Because, True Nature, Stop! Also. A some really good bands that also emerged from the early 90's Seattle grunge rock scene (along with pearl jam) would be Alice In Chains and Soundgarden Notable songs to check out (by Alice in chains): Would?, Down In A hole, Them Bones Notable songs to check out (by soundgarden): Black Hole Sun, Spoonman, Fell on Black Days, My Wave I think that can get you started for now. A good idea if you like to find new music recommendations based on what you already listen to, or just to discover new music, could be to join Last.fm (also called the social music revolution) you could Google it. Have fun.
