Thank you Billy!!! Love your line ups! You are the KING of Re-creating a moment in history so we can see the historic pictures in a ' Back to the Future ' style!
Just to know Elvis was in that room.... I love it...... its nice to know the shell- venue is still ther after 80+ years...quick glimpse that boy looks a resemblance of when Elvis was a kid I thought,.... thanks Spaguy n Trey 👍 🙏
Oh and his name spelt Ellis- I wonder what Elvis and people thought that day seeing it.... 🙂
Incredible about the little boy becoming the police officer.
,,,,AND,,,, the rest is history. Very cool details,,,to think this is where it all kicked off,,and people are still enamoured by Elvis today. How many other singers/entertainers have had anywhere close to the staying power of Elvis.. Thanks again SG.
This is one of the coolest ones you've ever done, Elvis is king! Appreciate you keeping his spirit alive
I have been to the Overton Park Shell and stood on the stage. Your video was great and made it all seem so real again. No one does ELVIS videos like you so thank you! Any chance you will interview the boy who became the police officer? Might be an interesting story.
I'm speechless!!! Love what you do. It kinda brings him back to life for a short time then he's gone......
The family and i visited memphis in 2018 from the uk. Before walking onto the memphis zoo ( which is the best zoo weve ever visited by the way) we visited Overton park shell. There was a gentleman painting the stage floor, and he was kind enough to show us around. A memory ill never forget.
When I was there a couple years ago, the concrete uprights from the original seats were all stacked up at the sides of the shell.
Yes they are still there..
So cool!! I love that they have a ticket from that night framed with his picture 🥹❤️and the bass guitar story! How awesome😮🤩
That was incredible all of it.
Especially about the boy growing up to be.
A policeman.
Thank God I always did all these things so you could find them and tell us all about his life.
And his beautiful memories.
God bless you always.
Sending blessings. Prayers hugs in love always to you and your family.
I'm always delighted to watch any of your videos about Elvis and always grateful that whoever you ask for help is more than eager to show you around and give you tidbits of information about Elvis. Thank you for all the work you do.
Walking in Elvis' footsteps...Too cool...
Thank you so much Spa Guy for sharing👍🇺🇸
Amazing as usual spa guy😊
Great job in showing this up close and personal! Thanks for taking us along with you ❤
Awesome story and awesome presentation. So glad that the Shell hasn't changed that much in so many years. Exciting stuff here, Billy. Also - at the end - I had no idea Elvis played the bass part on that song - or at least the beginning part. Now it makes sense he'd have a bass playing to Mohair Sam when the Beatles met him. If people have any doubt in Elvis' talent on a guitar, all they have to do is watch the 68 Comeback Special. There are some great moments during the leather jacket bit (especially the stand-up part) where he shows he really can play and quite well. Thanx for this and all your uploads. Til the next one, Take care, My friend. You guys are on the point.
Spa Guy , I have worked that whole area and place and can't believe there is no monument letting people know what you just put out on this video. That's Memphis for ya
This was just incredible I love seeing how Elvis would have seen things and where he lived/visited!
Spa Guy,
It is incredible how Elvis being the opening performer of a “famous Singer “ at that time,
Becomes the King of Rock and Roll world wide and the “famous Singer “ is forgotten about.
This is a perfect example of one never knows what your destiny is.
Thank for the video.
As always we learned more facts,events,people,places and history of all kinds though your videos .
Arrivederci!
I saw that Slim Whitman infomercials so many times back in the day.
Incredible thanx Spa Guy ❤
just amazing you find these spots
Honestly, I didn't know much about Slim Whitman until you brought up his name, so I decided to listen to some of his tunes. And wow, he definitely had some vocal influence on Elvis. Elvis recorded Blue Moon only a few weeks after the Overton Park show. He does some falsetto stuff in the middle just like Whitman. Another great video spa guy!
Wonder if Elvis ever later revisited his old places where he played.
As always your spot on, we appreciate everything you do! I am subscribed, wouldn't miss a one!
Thanks Spa Guy, awesome video, one of the best. keep them coming. Barney NZ
I wonder if Whitman told people about how Elvis used to be his opening act.
It's 2-3 km from the old house of elvis on Audubon I think? Thank détective.😁🙏
Thanks so much
I know that place well . . I played on that stage one time with a band i was in . . 1987 😊
very kool! thanks billy!!!
Another cool Video!! Thank you Spa Guy!!
Great video, Billy. You republish these as "Classic Spa Guy Videos."
I am starting to go back and update the old ones make sure the information is correct and also mix new footage in with old..
Thank you~
Fantástico ver cómo descubres y paseas los sitios por donde estuvo Elvis, increíbles tus investigaciones!!! Felicidades!!!😊👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Spa Guy, thanks for sharing yet another gem...
Darealdeal
Great stuff!! Its great what your doing Billy!Love it!
Glad you're replaying these...some of the early videos are epic...and you have many more followers now who need to see this! (I believe that was a Catholic altar, not a Menorah, which has eight candles...this one has six with a raised middle candle representing Jesus)
Thanx 😎⚡
Wow great video thanks
Cool video. But, having Cleveland roots, gotta champion the Moondog Coronation Ball held at the Cleveland Arena on March 21, 1952 - which is the prevailing accepted first rock concert.
Great video
Great video Billy, I wonder how many did he do on his first gig.
Thank you very much.
😅😂
I never realized the coincidence until seeing this video, but it's ironic that they misspelled "Elvis" as "Ellis" and years later his last drummer would be Ronnie ELLIS Tutt..
The name has been changed back to Overton Park Shell now.
I remember those old Slim commercials.
Was the Overton show before the show they did on the trailer at the shopping mall? I was thinking they did a few things before this day. Just wondering Billy. You certainly know more than me. 👍🏼😎
Overton Park was the third show on July 30th, Katz Drugs was on the flatbed and it was the 10th show September 9th..
@@SpaGuy okay. Got it
I'm coming to Memphis August hope you guys are doing the 3 hr tour.

Awesome video!💚
I would never have the opportunity to see this in reality, so this means a lot to me!
Did the guy, who showed you arround, say why they nearly lost the shell?? Maybe i didn't get it, my mother tongue is not English.
I love that place!!
This was very informative, your bass imitation was brilliant !🌞
Thank you for giving us an impression of Slim Whitman!
Thank you so much for this video!
Milton Berle taught him is singing style he threw grasshoppers down is pants .fact.
Isn’t this a repost Billy? Thought you’d done a video on the Shell before. Just curious
It is a new version of footage I shot over a long period of time.. I am going back and updating old videos I put out when I had 15,000 subs now I have almost 100,000.. I am also making sure the information is accurate since I know more now than I did 6-7 years ago.. So no it is not a repost it is a new video..
elvis wasn't famous the first show from overton park shell 🙂
Nope he wasn't how could he been as stated it was 25 days after his first Released record was recorded..
It’s SO ANNOYING that they keep changing the name of places and streets. Why????
It has been over 60 years things change..
Great information. 👍🏻
