As you know, we have a connection to Elvis in that he was a friend of Ed Parker's. Mr. Parker promoted him to 7th black and I'm told he was a good black belt. When asked if Elvis was really a 7th Mr. Parker would sometimes say "When you're dead, what degree of dead are you?" meaning Elvis was a black belt and the degree didn't matter.
Here are two links I was mailed recently that have Elvis and/or Ed Parker in them.
