"If Elvis didn't survive, then what of his comeback?" - Obviously some still think he's coming back, but...

...obviously he doesn't give a $#!+ now, no more than he did back then (pun intended), and his so-called comeback was arguably marginal from a 'happening' POV (except for those giggly housewives and the mainstream media), and certainly not as vital as other music in the late 60's & early 70's.

Furthermore (just to cut the slats out from under your rather trivial argument), one exception, even if it can be adequately defended, doesn't rewrite the rule. In other words, I stand by what I said (quote): "...those pop groups and individual musicians who were capable of adjusting their styles to the volatility of the times survived and those who didn't became less relevant; it was very Darwinian."
