He
Touched Me: The Gospel Music of Elvis Presley
Long before Elvis was heralded as the king of rock 'n'
roll, he was a faithful fan of gospel music. Although
it was instrumental in shaping his spiritual life as
well as his career, no documentary has truly chronicled
this facet of his life until now. He Touched
Me: The Gospel Music of Elvis Presley features more
than thirty of Elvis's gospel recordings and never-before-seen
footage. Filled with personal stories by those who knew
him well, this program goes behind the scenes of Elvis's
career.
