November 26th in Elvis History

It's November twenty-sixth, and on this day in 1954… Elvis Presley returned to the Paladium Club in Houston, Texas, by popular demand. Just one day after his first performance there, the crowd’s overwhelming enthusiasm brought him back for an encore show. That same day, Elvis sent a telegram home to his parents, enclosing money to help with bills and promising to send more soon—a touching reminder that even as his star began to rise, he never forgot where he came from.
