60 years ago last Sunday, Elvis Presley bought his Memphis mansion, Graceland – aka “rock-n-roll’s White House”. Over the years, countless celebrities (and others) have visited it. Paul Simon even entitled an album after it.
From the time Graceland opened to the public on June 7, 1982, the tour guide staff have informally kept a list of the celebrities who visited – some of whom include: George W. Bush and family, Jimmy Carter and family, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Oscar de la Renta, Bob Dylan, Freddie Fender, Jerry Garcia, Prince Albert of Monaco, Kaiser Chiefs, Ralph Nader, Robert Plant (3x), Prince William and Prince Harry, Strom Thurmond …….
