"I was on the floor, and he had his boot on my throat. I was like, That's great Elvis, that's great." The surreal story of the night Alice Cooper met Elvis Presley

Alice and Elvis.

In 1974, Alice Cooper received a phone call from Elvis Presley's agent, inviting him to meet the King of Rock and Roll at his suite at the Hilton in Las Vegas.

When Cooper went to the hotel, where Elvis and his 'Memphis Mafia' entourage were occupying several floors, he found himself sharing a lift with his friend Liza Minnelli, rock and roll pioneer Chubby Checker, and porn star Linda Lovelace, of Deep Throat fame.
