Hi Duff:
I agree with you that Elvis was an example of Dynamic Quality, only I
would say he represented DQ of the DEGENERATE kind. His main
claim to fame was his biological pelvic thrusts, sending teenage girls
into paroxysms of fantasy organisms. It's been all downhill since, as
"ho" Britney amply demonstrates.
