Yes, he contributed a great deal as well. But he was more Pop than anything else.

I dont think rock and roll was stolen from anyone.....I also dont think there is a "King" of rock and roll. R&R draws from a variety of different genres from blues (BB King) to country (Woodie Guthrie) and on down the line through folk.

Well, nowadays the country music scene claims Elvis as their own. So, I guess you are right in the original post. Also he didn't die until '76. By then we had REAL ROCK like Led Zepelin. Elvis certainly wasn't considered ROCK in his later years.
