Elvis Presley 1953 recording for his mother's birthday

Elvis Presley 1953 recording for his mother's birthday [VIDEO], In 1953 Elvis drops by The Memphis Recording Service, home of the Sun label and makes a demo acetate of “My Happiness” and “That’s When Your Heartaches Begin” for a cost of about $4.00.

The studio owner isn’t in, so his assistant, Marion Keisker handles the session. Elvis wants to see what his voice sounds like on a record and he has aspirations to become a professional singer. He takes the acetate home, and reportedly gives it to his mother as a much-belated extra birthday present. Go here to read more including the lyrics and also listen to the song video.
