Elvis would go to the recording studio and all his band members would be there waitting … He would sit at the piano and start tuning his voice to melodies of songs. The first song he would always play and tune to was “Lead Me, Guide Me” a gospel favorite of his. He would mostly play gospel songs while other backup singers would join in singing harmony. He would do this for an about two hours while his band members would wait for him to start the recording session.
Many writings talk about how Elvis exercised constantly. He practiced Racketball. He rode a stationary bike at Graceland. He practiced Karate.
