THE CARL ARRINGTON ARCHIVE JASONCHARLES.NET PODCAST NETWORK

THE CARL ARRINGTON ARCHIVE Episode 10 features an excerpt of Carl's original interviews with two members of Elvis Presley’s MEMPHIS MAFIA, Joe Esposito and Pat Parry, recorded in Los Angeles in 1984.  Nobody was like Elvis Presley. Even now he’s revered as the King of Rock and Roll. But even as he was globally famous he lived a private and eccentric life at Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. The people who knew him best were a tightly knit group of 9 individuals that came to be known as the Memphis Mafia. On the occasion of what would have been Elvis’s 50th birthday, there was a special issue of People Magazine in remembrance of his incredible life, for which Carl interviewed the key figures of the music icon’s inner circle in Los Angeles in December of 1984. This special double episode features two original Memphis Mafia members: JOE ESPOSITO, who functioned as Elvis’s personal manager for 17 years, and PAT PARRY aka "Patricia," who also spent nearly two decades with him and was the only girl in the bunch. These interview excerpts reveal what it was like to live with the most famous man in the world and what the music legend would have been like had he lived beyond his 42 years.
