July 1, 1956 – Elvis Presley

July 1, 1956 – NBC’s “Steve Allen Show” capitalizes on the outrage by presenting a new, “clean” Elvis Presley, singing “Hound Dog” to an actual basset hound perched on a stool and wearing a bow tie. Backstage, Elvis explodes in fury at the Colonel for agreeing to the stunt. #ROCkabillyHop @ElvisPresley #Elvis #theKing #HoundDog #RocHop
