Was Elvis a Narc? AXS TV’s “Music’s Greatest Mysteries” First-Look Clip Examines The Possibility Sunday, Dec. 13

AXS TV’s original investigative series Music’s Greatest Mysteries returns with an all-new episode on Sunday, December 13 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT—delivering an in-depth examination of the truth behind some of the infamous myths and legends that have shaped the music industry throughout the years.

In this exclusive first look, Music’s Greatest Mysteries ponders the possibility that The King Of Rock N’ Roll was a narc for the Nixon Administration—a seemingly unlikely alliance forged when Elvis wrote to the President, offering to use his position as one of America’s most influential icons to help clean up the country in exchange for being made a Federal Agent with the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs.

The episode also aims to determine if the devil really is in the details with an in-depth breakdown of “The Legend Of Backmasking, shining a light on Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway To Heaven”—one of rock’s most famous examples of the technique—and featuring an interview with Styx guitarist Tommy Shaw about accusations of devil worship that were hurled at the band. And Music’s Greatest Mysteries reflects on the nine lives of Aerosmith, examining several of the rock superstars’ close calls with death which include almost renting the same plane that ultimately killed fellow icons Lynyrd Skynyrd just a few months later.

Spanning a wide variety of eras and genres—from Hip Hop and Rockabilly, to Country, Grunge, and everything in-between—Music’s Greatest Mysteries guides viewers on an immersive journey investigating the infamous myths and larger-than-life personalities which have come to define the music industry throughout the decades. Separating fact from fiction, Music’s Greatest Mysteries presents a fresh perspective on stories both well-known and slightly more obscure, unearthing hidden gems and long-forgotten lore with the help of music icons and noted experts. Blending insightful commentary with rare archive footage, the series seeks to answer the “whys” and “hows” of each new topic until the whole truth is revealed.

The series airs as part of the Network’s popular Sunday Night Rocks block, which also includes The Top Ten Revealed at 8 p.m. ET, Rock Legends at 8:30 p.m. ET, and A Year In Music at 9:30 p.m. ET.
