Bouke Scholten wants to show as many people as possible what a musical genius Elvis was. That is why he travels to America together with music friend Rob Kemps and delves into Elvis history.


Bouke and Rob start their road trip in Elvis' birthplace, the village of Tupelo. They visit the house where he was born and take a look together at the shop where Elvis bought his first guitar. We also see a unique performance in the church of Tupelo where Bouke sings the sensitive Amazing Grace together with Estelle Brown, a former backup singer of Elvis. Bouke became emotional during a visit to Graceland.

The unique musical journey through Elvis' life continues and Bouke and Rob visit the Sun Studios where Elvis recorded his first music. They get a glimpse into the largest private Elvis collection ever. And Bouke goes on the American stage in the famous music street Beale Street in Memphis where he can perform in the BB King cafe.

The musical journey through the life of Elvis Presley heads towards Las Vegas, but first Bouke and Rob meet Elvis' last fiancée: Ginger Alden in Nashville. Bouke brings her a musical tribute. In Las Vegas, the gentlemen have a full program waiting for them. We are at a typical Vegas wedding, visit a fan who became friends with Elvis, speak to Elvis' stepbrother and see the place where he lived and gave his performances.

Soul music has conquered the world in the last 50 years - growing from the raw, electric rhythms of the black underclass, it is now a billion dollar industry with R&B and hip hop dominating the world's charts. It's been the soundtrack to some of the most extraordinary social, political and cultural shifts. Together with the civil rights movement, it has challenged white hegemony, helped break down segregation and encouraged the fight for racial equality. This new six-part series, made by the BBC team who produced the critically-acclaimed Lost Highway, Walk On By and Dancing In The Street series, charts the evolution of soul music - with a fascinating combination of rare archive footage and over 100 contemporary interviews. The movers and shakers from the world of soul – such as James Brown, Mary J Blige, Beyoncé and Martha Reeves, - plus some often overlooked talent, track the music that shaped our lives.
