Ben Klein - Elvis impersonator who made it to final 10 in THE Memphis contest

Elvis impersonator Ben Klein was born in the same week as Elvis - just 46 years later! Luckily he was born into a musical family and had all the lessons he needed to learn his musical craft. Can you believe this guy's dad was an Elvis imperson ator also?

His website says:

"In 2002, he bought a '50's Elvis CD for his Dad Randy, who was an Elvis tribute artist before he was born.

Then realizing his own resemblance to the young Elvis, he borrowed the CD, found movies and videos

and decided to listen, watch, study and practice. Ben "Preslee" Klein began tributing Elvis Presley with

his early hits such as "That's Alright Shoes","Hearbreak Hotel", Blue Seude Shoes Love Me Tender", "Hound Dog","Peace In The Valley"and"Jailhouse Rock". "

Congratulations to Ben Klein, another Elvis impersonator who made it the the final 10 in the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artsit competition in Memphis. The first of its kind backed by the Preslet eEtate who used to ignore impersonators! They have seen the light!

Ben "Preslee" Klein.

Interuption to news on top 10 Elvis impersonators in Memphis contest

Yes, I have been trying to think for days about anyone that has been so admired in history that they have had SO many people try to copy or impersonate them. Can you think of anyone?

In this case, I am talking about Elvis impersonators of course. But realistically, who else in history has had the impact of Elvis Presley?

The funny thing is that everything about him is as appealing today as it was 30 years ago. He was a fine looking man.. he could sing and he had moves way ahead of his time. I reckon that if someone similar came onto the music scene today they would take the breath away of music lovers around the world again.

But you know what?.. I just can't see that happening.. he was differentt- he was unique. As great as he was, he seemed a normal kind of a guy.. people liked him. He wasn't arrogant by any stretch of the imagination.. and he had everything going for him..

This world of the Elvis impersonator really does occupy my mind because I find it so fascinating. I mean.. can you believe there are 85,000 out there around the globe? And you can be any age, any gender.. it doesn't matter. People just love what this guy offered and if you can replicate it well - then they will love you too. You just need to be good and we've been seeing the great ones - the final 10 of the Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist contest!

So, I just had to put these words out there. How great that I can do this so easily? I have to thank a guy named Ed Dale for teaching me just how to..

And I will continue being a loyal Elvis impersonator fan also.. My aim is to bring the best and latest in news to you..
