Elvis Presley's danger to American culture: He was regarded as the "personification of evil," a "savage" with "sinful gyrations," performing "obscene" "devil music."

The $5.4 million sale of the entire Elvis Presley music back catalog in 1973 split 50/50 with Tom Parker. Was this the worst deal in the history of the music business?
Inflation calculator: $5.4 million in 1973 = $33,908,351 in 2022
Why was Parker entitled to 50% of that money? And 100% of all EP merchandising! Grrrrrrrrr!
In March 1973, Elvis and and his manager, Colonel Tom Parker, went to the record company proposing that Elvis get a large lump sum payment in lieu of all his future artist's royalties for ongoing sales of anything he had recorded up to that time. The deal was made. RCA paid $5.4 million, which Elvis and the Colonel split 50-50. That meant Elvis no longer got (EPE today does not get) his artist's royalties for the ongoing sales of any recordings created before the March 1973 deal. However, Elvis did continue (EPE today continues) to get his artist's royalties on sales of recordings created after the March 1973 deal. Some people misunderstand and think that Elvis had a share in the ownership of his recordings and that this is what he sold to RCA. He did not.
