He had a regular show in Vegas for awhile, all of the Stars in Hollywood came out to his shows there every night he played, many returning over & over again, he was the #1 Show all time in Vegas.
Elvis was the world's first superstar, he is the coolest man that ever lived. The more you see him the more you want to see him. Please react to Trying to get to you live 1968 comeback special" i saw elvis and i subbed. thank you.
During Elvis 4 week stay at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel , he broke every attendance record. That’s because he was the best of anyone in the whole darn world. From 1969-77 Elvis performed 837 consecutive sold out performances in Las Vegas alone. That’s 2.5 million people.
He was born in Tueplo, Mississippi and then his parents moved to Memphis, Tennessee when Elvis was about 12 or 13. They moved him because of his great interest in music and Tennessee is the capital music of the world!!! Well, he was popular in Vegas for both reasons. Vegas along with Madison Square Garden in New York is considered the biggest stage in the world. And Elvis played both.He was the BIGGEST attraction the city had ever known. They came from ALL over the world to see him!!! He set attendance records there playing to the largest crowds in history and everywhere else he played in the '70's. He sold out every show thru the '70's. How about more Elvis? In October 28, 1956 doing Hound Dog on the Ed Sullivan Show. In '73 at the Aloha From Hawaii Concert doing You Gave Me A Mountain. See how they reacted to him at these jaw dropping performances!!! The world had never seen quiet a phenomenon like Elvis!!!!
Well I read Vernon left at night owing money to various folk in Tupelo, and was getting no where in his various jobs to support his family. Memphis was fairly close in the great scheme of things and he had more chance in finding rewarding work. At aged 13 Elvis showed no inkling he would be a stand out musician and according to Elvis Vernon actually said something along the lines, I've never known a guitar picker make a good living.
This man had a 23 year career and sang every type of music you can name. He won 3 Grammy's for his gospel alone. He was the whole package, Beautiful, talented and very generous. he was civil rights advocate and culture changer. Watch his tribute to Martin Luther King, from the 1968 special called " If I Can Dream". He was the first and the best.
Like u now,Elvis sold over a billion records,,he's in 5 hall of fames he starred in 31 movies,sang around 700.songs in his short career passed away at 42,and is still relevant today and had the whole package, started in 1956,till 77,when he passed.
Jerry Scheff is the bassist, he's actually a jazz bassist, but can play anything. A year after this show he played bass on The Doors last album "L.A. Woman" And you can hear him ride that not on the intro to that song also.
The thing with elvis is he is very complex . He sang every type of music . Elvis personally choose his band and they knew all his moves and hand gestures meant something musically . Listen to 1970 Bridge over troubled water from his outstanding vocal ability or just great songs Iv lost you , just pretend ,, patch it up , you've lost that loving feeling . 1972 How great thou art 1973 it's over , what now my love .
Elvis did have a residency in Vegas for 7 years, at the International Hotel (later the Hilton and now the Westgate). Every February and July/August he would play four straight weeks, 7 days a week, two shows a night (an 8pm dinner show and a 12am midnight show - and on the last night he would do a 3am show for fellow entertainers who couldn't make the previous shows). Pretty brutal schedule, he often didn't even know what day it was. Polk Salad Annie isn't really a vocal performance kind of song, so hopefully no one gives you crap about not mentioning his voice. For that you'd have to watch something like his 1970 performance of 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', his 1973 performance of 'What Now My Love' (or almost anything from his Aloha From Hawaii show), 1968's 'Tryin' To Get To You', or 1972's 'How Great Thou Art'. There are really so many that showcase his voice, those are just a few.
yes....born in Tupelo, MS...at 13 his dad moved the family to Memphis, TN so he could find work...lived in city housing projects... Elvis' Graceland(located in south Memphis)is the 2nd most visited home in America(after the Whitehouse).
When Elvis opened at the International Hotel in Las Vegas, later the Las Vegas Hilton and now The Westgate. It was the largest showroom in Vegas and of its kind anywhere. Elvis smashed all Las Vegas Attendance Records and when he returned the following two years he smashed his own Las Vegas Attendance records. Playing 2 shows a night, 7 days a week for 30 days at a time Vegas had never seen such an attraction with people coming from all over the world. It was the beginning of big vegas concert shows and Elvis would along with national touring return to Vegas yearly from 1969 to 1976, he was scheduled to return in 1977 but of course passed away.
Thanks for mentioning the bass playing because nobody hardly ever does. And he is a phenomenal bass player just like everybody in that band is incredible. And I love Ronnie Tutt on the drums. But at any rate, another one that you will probably get a lot of recommendations for is Suspicious Minds from this exact same show, and it is an iconic performance if you really want to hear that bass player going nuts. And there is more singing in it. That's your song. Absolutely phenomenal. You saw his singing ability on American Trilogy but you should also check out Bridge Over Troubled Water from this same 1970 Vegas show. It's really wonderful.
I subscribed more Elvis please a great one also is live Las Vegas 1970 Bridge over Troubled Waters, What now my love & all of the 68 Comeback special & yes he was the first to have a Las Vegas residency starting in 1968 -thru 1976 he played 2 shows a night 7 days a week for 6 weeks twice a year he was the highest paid performer in Vegas at that time he sold out every performance & received a gold belt from the International Hotel Casino for perfect record on sold out performances when he opened in 1969 every star from Hollywood & singers came to see him he put Las Vegas on the map before him their were no big star performers there! He also sang Gospel music that will take you to church he won 3 Grammys for his Gospel! He sang all genre of music & still holds the record for most albums sold! In 1973 he was the first to do a live Satellite Charity Show from Hawaii called the Aloha Hawaii Special was seen by over 1.5 billion homes! He grew up dirt poor & never forgot his roots he was the most gorgeous, charismatic, charitable generous, humble man he loved his fans & gave to people he didn’t even know! He was & still is the GOAT!
I liked him from 57 until death. Forever. Can't pick a special time of his life. It was all good. He was doing concerts all over America. Vegas was one he performed at lots too. Like you kids.
This (novelty) song, along with "Suspicious Minds" is more about his dance moves, rather than highlighting his incredible voice. If you want to see what he could do with his voice, check out "If I can dream" '68, "Just Pretend '70, "How great thou art" '72 and "What now my love" '73. All live.
Clean face Elvis was his managers creation for the movie years. This is who Elvis really was. Two you should definitely react to are Suspicious minds same concert 1970 live in Vegas and Trying to get to you 1968 Comeback Special. Forget the haters. They only know rumors and false stories. This man was the ultimate in his time and loved 46 years beyond his death. He shook up the world. Vicki
Elvis changed the face of Vegas. Before he started performing there mist of the performers were older ones who's careers weren't as big as they once were. Elvis was the first mega superstar to play Vegas while at the height of his career. As Sammy Davis, Jr said in an interview, the minute Elvis' name went up on the marquis or people heard he was performing there people would fly in from all over the world to see him. Sammy saud he'd never seen anything like it in Vegas before. In years after that it became the norm to see big name current stars perform in Vegas.
Elvis made Vegas! it was the most sought after performer in Vegas, and performed many shows for several years, the highest paid performer in Vegas history!
Watch "What Now My Love" 1973 in Hawaii live concert if you want to hear his voice. Another good one is "Just Pretend" 1970 in Los Vegeas for his beautiful voice.

Here is Elvis signing the contract on the building site that would eventually become the International Hotel. He bought so much money into Vegas, many credit him with its rise to prominence. It seems strange comparing the skyline back then to now, Vegas looked to be a pretty small place back then. th-cam.com/video/t5HIQRFp7DQ/w-d-xo.html
The bassplayer is Jerry Scheff, one of the greatest ever. Met him several times, very friendly guy. Played also bass on the LA Woman full album with the Doors.
Sounds fine, more Elvis the entertainer than vocalist, here. His vocals stand out better on songs like In The Ghetto, Suspicious Minds, Kentucky Rain, Jailhouse Rock ect.
If you can find me someone else in the world that can do that, I`ll pay more or less whatever it takes to see... I`m just about old enough to remember `68 - `70, and remember him being as famous as everybody else alive in the world put together. This is not necessarily a good thing. RIP Elvis, not least amongst us and certaily not the greatest who has walked amongst us. I`m English, and the song `Jerusalem` comes to my mind.
Presley's vocal prowess is more evident in other, more melodic material. Check out "If I Can Dream" (1968), "Bridge Over Troubled Water" (1970), "How Great Thou Art" (1970) and "American Trilogy" to experience how truly great a singer Elvis Presley was.
There’s Elvis and then everyone else. No one will ever compare to the king. Ever. Listen to bridge over troubled waters. He’s from Tupelo Mississippi. Because Elvis was Vegas. He sold out every show 6 weeks a year, two shows a night. He was the highest paid entertainer in Vegas history at $1 million a week. Streisand at the time was the second highest at $50,000 week.
Saw Elvis and subbed! Please react to 68 Comeback Special in black leather sitting down Trying to get to You and 1970 live in Vegas Bridge Over Trouble Water. TCB ⚡🌹😎
by 1968 Elivs had been stuck doing trivial musical boy meets girl, boy gets girl movies because of his greedy manager got him to sign a contract. He was on the verge of being irrelevant, washed up in 1968, music had changed. They decided to do a TV special, taped it summer and broadcast in November or December 1968. Critics raved about it, high TV ratings. THIS is what got him into Las Vegas in 1969 with a giant production, band and backup singers.
Thanks for giving him another try. You are both doing your best to like him but many of us fans are now expert readers of reactions, and I don't think Elvis will win you over - no probs. Anyway trying to read what you would like is not easy, but as a last throw of the dice have a shot at Trying To Get You or One Night from the 1968 TV Special.
Before Elvis did Las Vegas it was a place where artists went to die, another words they were at the end of their careers but with Elvis did it the city of Las Vegas went up 10% in fact they gave him a gold-plated belt bore it as to say thank you very much it was Elvis who made Las Vegas cool to come and to vacation try Love me tender 1970 live and tell us what would you do if Elvis was kissing your wife? Would like to see that reaction from you guys thank you for your reaction
I second that Elvis'band is top notch! But to say that you appreciate Elvis in this more for his entertaing the audience/directing the band? ( Wich he did very good!) But it is like doing Elvis'injustice to forget his vocal qualities here. Just listen to the intro where he is introducing the story, and also the singing. No-one could do this better than Elvis. ( Although I like the original by Tony Joe White too) The song did fit Elvis to a T. And for an idea of who Elvis was? Check out the recent Austin Butler movie directed by Baz Luhrman. Of course Austin pales in comparison , but he did allright!
Did you react to Suspicious Minds Vagus 1970. If not you have to react to it. Elvis helped pay for the International Hotel where his shows were.ill love you more if you play more Elvis. I grew up listening to Elvis since 1956 n yes im old now but Elvis music keeps me young. I only got to one concert Aloha concert 1973 n sat 3rd row center n couldn't take my eyes off of him. I never met Elvis but became friends with Charlie Hodge his confidant and best friend for years after Elvis died n he told me many great stories about Elvis, I even kept a journal on the stories. Some other songs that many people liked " Bridge Over Troubled Water Vagus 1970", American Trilogy Aloha concert 1973, Make The World Go Away Vagus 1970. You Gave Me A Mountain Aloha concert 1973, I'll tell u more later. Ronnie Tutt was his drummer ( recently died) James Burton guitar, n Glenn Hardin his pianist ( I met Glenn several years after Elvis died. n we became good friends) I could write you a book lol. Also Elvis gave most of his millions away to friends, family n people he didn't even know. Hey bought people Cadillacs, Motorcycles, Jewelry, Trips, Houses,paid their medical bills etc , Helped pay for the Pearl Harber memorial, While in his car he saw a homeless man n he made his driver stop n he gave the man $5000 to get a new start in his life, His home at Graceland, Memphis is now a museum with everything he owned, awards, gold records, all his cars, Motorcycles. I better stop before you get bored I love your reaction. Keep the videos coming. Thank you for keeping Elvis music alive
I guess you like the band. James Burton plays the hell out of this one with Elvis. Song starts at 0:36. James taking off at 2:20 th-cam.com/video/asN0iLQCcKY/w-d-xo.html
James Burton was his base player guys. Anything from 68 special and also the 73 Aloha from Hawaii. What Now My Love, My Way, and You Gave Me A Mountain all from the 73 Aloha special are must reactions.
lol The misinformation in e comment sections is astounding! Someone already pointed out who's who but the way people present stuff as facts sometimes is crazy.
Just Pretend live 70 for vocals if that's what you're looking for..or Bridge Over Troubled Water or You've Lost That Loving Feeling live in 70. I could go on and on but I won't
I always thought it was poke salad.....the poke weed is an edible green when it is young. As it matures it becomes poisonous. I can only seem to identify it when it is poisonous....it starts to turn reddish in the stalk.
Love this song. You should check out Tony Joe Whites version of this song. While you are listening to Tony Joe White you should check out his songs Rainy Night in Georgia, Swamp Rap, and Even Trolls Love Rock and Roll.
It's actually called poke salet. It's a plant that grows in the south that some parts are poisonous. You have to know which part of the plant to eat. Listen to the original Tony Joe White Version. As much as I love Elvis Tony Joe's version is better
Scientific fact.. When you have light colored eyes.. like blue or green.. Lights hurt our eyes.. just a fact.. Elvis had those beautiful Blue Eyes.. but the lights on him.. hurt his eyes.. Most times you see him his eyes are closed.. the lights hurt his eyes.. I know it .. I have green eyes.. I can't have lights in my eyes.
From personal experience Elvis fans on TH-cam are the most hateful group I've ever encountered. Good luck with them. I would recommend the studio version of In The Ghetto or the 68 comeback version of If I Can Dream to show his vocal talent or anything from Aloha from Hawaii.
Hey.. not hateful.. we just love Elvis so much and we don’t like others critisizing him.. if u truly knew about him u would know he was a wonderful warm generous man … I don’t think there are any other fans that are more loyal than Elvis fans… God bless Elvis ❤️❤️
I like you. Thank you so much! I love Elvis. Anything Elvis
He had a regular show in Vegas for awhile, all of the Stars in Hollywood came out to his shows there every night he played, many returning over & over again, he was the #1 Show all time in Vegas.
Elvis was the world's first superstar, he is the coolest man that ever lived. The more you see him the more you want to see him. Please react to Trying to get to you live 1968 comeback special" i saw elvis and i subbed. thank you.
Watch his 1970 live version of “Bridge over Troubled Water” if you want to hear his voice……A vocal masterpiece!
During Elvis 4 week stay at the Las Vegas Hilton hotel , he broke every attendance record. That’s because he was the best of anyone in the whole darn world. From 1969-77 Elvis performed 837 consecutive sold out performances in Las Vegas alone. That’s 2.5 million people.
Not to mention the hundreds of shows he did on tour around America in the 70s
He was born in Tueplo, Mississippi and then his parents moved to Memphis, Tennessee when Elvis was about 12 or 13. They moved him because of his great interest in music and Tennessee is the capital music of the world!!! Well, he was popular in Vegas for both reasons. Vegas along with Madison Square Garden in New York is considered the biggest stage in the world. And Elvis played both.He was the BIGGEST attraction the city had ever known. They came from ALL over the world to see him!!! He set attendance records there playing to the largest crowds in history and everywhere else he played in the '70's. He sold out every show thru the '70's. How about more Elvis? In October 28, 1956 doing Hound Dog on the Ed Sullivan Show. In '73 at the Aloha From Hawaii Concert doing You Gave Me A Mountain. See how they reacted to him at these jaw dropping performances!!! The world had never seen quiet a phenomenon like Elvis!!!!
Well I read Vernon left at night owing money to various folk in Tupelo, and was getting no where in his various jobs to support his family. Memphis was fairly close in the great scheme of things and he had more chance in finding rewarding work.

Watch his tribute to Martin Luther King, from the 1968 special called " If I Can Dream". He was the first and the best.
I'm so sorry that you ever had any exposure to Elvis before.A force to reckoned with!
Never too late😁💯✌
Like u now,Elvis sold over a billion records,,he's in 5 hall of fames he starred in 31 movies,sang around 700.songs in his short career passed away at 42,and is still relevant today and had the whole package, started in 1956,till 77,when he passed.
No one has sold more ,not even Michael Jackson.
@@billmitchell7731 agree
Jerry Scheff is the bassist, he's actually a jazz bassist, but can play anything. A year after this show he played bass on The Doors last album "L.A. Woman" And you can hear him ride that not on the intro to that song also.
Doesn't matter what year. Elvis was Elvis and controlled everything with ease.
100 percent 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So true!
Elvis was so versatile. If you watch. if I can dream live 1968. This is quite popular with ones that are reviewing Thanks guys. 👍
There is no comment on elvis he is the best of 4he best greatest artist in thr world ..
To find out why they call him the KING you guys have a long way to go. He was, still is and always will be #1.❤
Such magnificence. Nothing like him before, nothing like him since. Totally unique and the greatest of all time, unlikely to be surpassed.
Elvis made Vegas what it is today. He was the first superstar to perform on such a scale.
The thing with elvis is he is very complex . He sang every type of music . Elvis personally choose his band and they knew all his moves and hand gestures meant something musically . Listen to 1970 Bridge over troubled water from his outstanding vocal ability or just great songs Iv lost you , just pretend ,, patch it up , you've lost that loving feeling .
1972 How great thou art
1973 it's over , what now my love .
Elvis did have a residency in Vegas for 7 years, at the International Hotel (later the Hilton and now the Westgate). Every February and July/August he would play four straight weeks, 7 days a week, two shows a night (an 8pm dinner show and a 12am midnight show - and on the last night he would do a 3am show for fellow entertainers who couldn't make the previous shows).

There are really so many that showcase his voice, those are just a few.
yes....born in Tupelo, MS...at 13 his dad moved the family to Memphis, TN so he could find work...lived in city housing projects... Elvis' Graceland(located in south Memphis)is the 2nd most visited home in America(after the Whitehouse).
When Elvis opened at the International Hotel in Las Vegas, later the Las Vegas Hilton and now The Westgate. It was the largest showroom in Vegas and of its kind anywhere.

You saw his singing ability on American Trilogy but you should also check out Bridge Over Troubled Water from this same 1970 Vegas show. It's really wonderful.
Elvis has one of the best voices ever. If you play BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS you will see what I mean 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻The live 70s version .
I subscribed more Elvis please a great one also is live Las Vegas 1970 Bridge over Troubled Waters, What now my love & all of the 68 Comeback special & yes he was the first to have a Las Vegas residency starting in 1968 -thru 1976 he played 2 shows a night 7 days a week for 6 weeks twice a year he was the highest paid performer in Vegas at that time he sold out every performance & received a gold belt from the International Hotel Casino for perfect record on sold out performances when he opened in 1969 every star from Hollywood & singers came to see him he put Las Vegas on the map before him their were no big star performers there!

He was & still is the GOAT!
Vegas was 1969 --- '68 was his Comeback special then signed for Vegas in '69 which was the beginning of his Vegas stint.
I liked him from 57 until death. Forever. Can't pick a special time of his life. It was all good. He was doing concerts all over America. Vegas was one he performed at lots too. Like you kids.
l'extraterrestre dune autre planète set pour sa qui a qu'n seul Elvis 😇💞👽💥💥💫💫👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Just judging by how young both of you are I think the next best performance to react to is Elvis Trying To Get To You 1968 at the 68 Comeback Special.
Elvis started the residency!!!! He was da, man.
Elvis' bassist on this special was Jerry Sheef.
Thanks for the Elvis reactions! Love your stereo and record collection behind you guys. So cool. Try some early Elvis- Ed Sullivan Show 1956.
Don't mess with elvis tears! Cool song. Thanks
Elvis is the one that started the Vegas residence thing
This (novelty) song, along with "Suspicious Minds" is more about his dance moves, rather than highlighting his incredible voice. If you want to see what he could do with his voice, check out
"If I can dream" '68, "Just Pretend '70, "How great thou art" '72 and "What now my love" '73. All live.
I like his how great though Art in his very last concert in 77. What a vocal performance ❤
Clean face Elvis was his managers creation for the movie years. This is who Elvis really was. Two you should definitely react to are Suspicious minds same concert 1970 live in Vegas and Trying to get to you 1968 Comeback Special. Forget the haters. They only know rumors and false stories. This man was the ultimate in his time and loved 46 years beyond his death. He shook up the world. Vicki
Elvis changed the face of Vegas. Before he started performing there mist of the performers were older ones who's careers weren't as big as they once were. Elvis was the first mega superstar to play Vegas while at the height of his career.

Sammy saud he'd never seen anything like it in Vegas before. In years after that it became the norm to see big name current stars perform in Vegas.
Elvis made Vegas! it was the most sought after performer in Vegas, and performed many shows for several years, the highest paid performer in Vegas history!
Watch "What Now My Love" 1973 in Hawaii live concert if you want to hear his voice. Another good one is "Just Pretend" 1970 in Los Vegeas for his beautiful voice.
" I can't help believing" Elvis in Vegas is very good. Thank you.
Yes see Elvis the movie. It’s pretty accurate according to Priscilla and his late daughter rip lisamarie

Great great super i love your reaction lovely lovely beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm into Elvis. Everything about him. He was great.
Loved it. Kids you was great thank you!
You should look into Elvis's 68 comeback special.... Thanks for ur reaction... Don't be to harsh because I can match that any day of the week....😊
The bass player's name was Jerry Schiff.
The bassplayer is Jerry Scheff, one of the greatest ever. Met him several times, very friendly guy. Played also bass on the LA Woman full album with the Doors.
Sounds fine, more Elvis the entertainer than vocalist, here.
His vocals stand out better on songs like In The Ghetto, Suspicious Minds, Kentucky Rain, Jailhouse Rock ect.
How about the 1968 tv special ..unplugged impromptu session wearing black leather. Loved it.
Bass player Jerry Scheff played on Doors “LA Woman”
I fu*king love 70s Elvis IDgAF
Coolest dude to walk the earth at that time.😎
I'm not a big Elvis fan but I must admit he was a very talented singer and performer.
complete performer....nobody does it better
68 comeback special “Trying to Get to You”. You’ll be obsessed after seeing it.
If you can find me someone else in the world that can do that, I`ll pay more or less whatever it takes to see...
I`m just about old enough to remember `68 - `70, and remember him being as famous as everybody else alive in the world put together.
This is not necessarily a good thing. RIP Elvis, not least amongst us and certaily not the greatest who has walked amongst us.
I`m English, and the song `Jerusalem` comes to my mind.
Presley's vocal prowess is more evident in other, more melodic material. Check out "If I Can Dream" (1968), "Bridge Over Troubled Water" (1970), "How Great Thou Art" (1970) and "American Trilogy" to experience how truly great a singer Elvis Presley was.
He wasn’t crying he was just sweating lol
There’s Elvis and then everyone else. No one will ever compare to the king. Ever. Listen to bridge over troubled waters. He’s from Tupelo Mississippi. Because Elvis was Vegas. He sold out every show 6 weeks a year, two shows a night. He was the highest paid entertainer in Vegas history at $1 million a week. Streisand at the time was the second highest at $50,000 week.
Saw Elvis and subbed! Please react to 68 Comeback Special in black leather sitting down Trying to get to You and 1970 live in Vegas Bridge Over Trouble Water. TCB ⚡🌹😎
by 1968 Elivs had been stuck doing trivial musical boy meets girl, boy gets girl movies because of his greedy manager got him to sign a contract. He was on the verge of being irrelevant, washed up in 1968, music had changed. They decided to do a TV special, taped it summer and broadcast in November or December 1968. Critics raved about it, high TV ratings. THIS is what got him into Las Vegas in 1969 with a giant production, band and backup singers.
Song was actually written and made popular by Tony Joe White.
Same concert Suspicious Minds is a fun one ;) Great review! :)
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤! "The Greatest Entertainer of All Time! The Man, The Music, The Legend!!" ❤❤❤❤!
Check his record sales youngster. It speaks for itself
Haha, I like you guys!
Thanks for giving him another try. You are both doing your best to like him but many of us fans are now expert readers of reactions, and I don't think Elvis will win you over - no probs. Anyway trying to read what you would like is not easy, but as a last throw of the dice have a shot at Trying To Get You or One Night from the 1968 TV Special.
Before Elvis did Las Vegas it was a place where artists went to die, another words they were at the end of their careers but with Elvis did it the city of Las Vegas went up 10% in fact they gave him a gold-plated belt bore it as to say thank you very much it was Elvis who made Las Vegas cool to come and to vacation try Love me tender 1970 live and tell us what would you do if Elvis was kissing your wife? Would like to see that reaction from you guys thank you for your reaction
Jerry shiff is the bass player also played with the doors
Elvis made Vegas, what you call popping it wasn't for Elvis Vegas would not be popping.
Jerry Scheff was his bass player. Father of Jason Scheff.
Listen to American Trilogy , If I Can Dream or Bridge Over Troubled Water(Vegas) to hear his vocal range
I second that Elvis'band is top notch! But to say that you appreciate Elvis in this more for his entertaing the audience/directing the band? ( Wich he did very good!) But it is like doing Elvis'injustice to forget his vocal qualities here. Just listen to the intro where he is introducing the story, and also the singing. No-one could do this better than Elvis. ( Although I like the original by Tony Joe White too) The song did fit Elvis to a T. And for an idea of who Elvis was? Check out the recent Austin Butler movie directed by Baz Luhrman. Of course Austin pales in comparison , but he did allright!
Sorry that was supposed to be 1969 - 1976 typo!
Did you react to Suspicious Minds Vagus 1970. If not you have to react to it. Elvis helped pay for the International Hotel where his shows were.ill love you more if you play more Elvis. I grew up listening to Elvis since 1956 n yes im old now but Elvis music keeps me young. I only got to one concert Aloha concert 1973 n sat 3rd row center n couldn't take my eyes off of him. I never met Elvis but became friends with Charlie Hodge his confidant and best friend for years after Elvis died n he told me many great stories about Elvis, I even kept a journal on the stories. Some other songs that many people liked " Bridge Over Troubled Water Vagus 1970", American Trilogy Aloha concert 1973, Make The World Go Away Vagus 1970. You Gave Me A Mountain Aloha concert 1973, I'll tell u more later. Ronnie Tutt was his drummer ( recently died) James Burton guitar, n Glenn Hardin his pianist ( I met Glenn several years after Elvis died. n we became good friends) I could write you a book lol. Also Elvis gave most of his millions away to friends, family n people he didn't even know. Hey bought people Cadillacs, Motorcycles, Jewelry, Trips, Houses,paid their medical bills etc , Helped pay for the Pearl Harber memorial, While in his car he saw a homeless man n he made his driver stop n he gave the man $5000 to get a new start in his life, His home at Graceland, Memphis is now a museum with everything he owned, awards, gold records, all his cars, Motorcycles. I better stop before you get bored I love your reaction. Keep the videos coming. Thank you for keeping Elvis music alive
Y'all are too funny 😊
I guess you like the band. James Burton plays the hell out of this one with Elvis. Song starts at 0:36. James taking off at 2:20
th-cam.com/video/asN0iLQCcKY/w-d-xo.html
James Burton was his base player guys. Anything from 68 special and also the 73 Aloha from Hawaii. What Now My Love, My Way, and You Gave Me A Mountain all from the 73 Aloha special are must reactions.
Jerry scheff was the bassist. Burton was lead guitar.
lol
The misinformation in e comment sections is astounding!
Someone already pointed out who's who but the way people present stuff as facts sometimes is crazy.
@@leifleifsen
Thank you :)
James Burton was on lead guitar, Jerry Scheff on bass. Just to get the record straight 😉👍
Just Pretend live 70 for vocals if that's what you're looking for..or Bridge Over Troubled Water or You've Lost That Loving Feeling live in 70.
I could go on and on but I won't
I always thought it was poke salad.....the poke weed is an edible green when it is young. As it matures it becomes poisonous. I can only seem to identify it when it is poisonous....it starts to turn reddish in the stalk.
Love this song. You should check out Tony Joe Whites version of this song. While you are listening to Tony Joe White you should check out his songs Rainy Night in Georgia, Swamp Rap, and Even Trolls Love Rock and Roll.
It's actually called poke salet. It's a plant that grows in the south that some parts are poisonous. You have to know which part of the plant to eat. Listen to the original Tony Joe White Version. As much as I love Elvis Tony Joe's version is better
Good reaction. Please try bridge over troubled water
American trilogy and my way. Thanks 💕💕💕💕
Странно слушать как эти американцы спрашивают - а откуда он вообще?😊
The word is check out please check out Elvis post army interview a class act to the brats today 👍👍👍
Mmmm just watching that vid will get you pregnant
Scientific fact.. When you have light colored eyes.. like blue or green.. Lights hurt our eyes.. just a fact.. Elvis had those beautiful Blue Eyes.. but the lights on him.. hurt his eyes.. Most times you see him his eyes are closed.. the lights hurt his eyes.. I know it .. I have green eyes.. I can't have lights in my eyes.
Start when he young until death.
check out "love me tender" from 1970
They are fans of musicians and this performance would go down the tubes at this point.
Watch "patch it up" anything everything he does.
It was Hawaii 200% humidity before ac was a thing!!🥵😅!
Poke salad
It was sweat son
Could u react to love me tender, 1970,he must of kissed 50,girls.
a couple of people counted & it was in the 20's -- approx. 22 or 25 -- thx.
From personal experience Elvis fans on TH-cam are the most hateful group I've ever encountered. Good luck with them. I would recommend the studio version of In The Ghetto or the 68 comeback version of If I Can Dream to show his vocal talent or anything from Aloha from Hawaii.
Hey.. not hateful.. we just love Elvis so much and we don’t like others critisizing him.. if u truly knew about him u would know he was a wonderful warm generous man … I don’t think there are any other fans that are more loyal than Elvis fans… God bless Elvis ❤️❤️
@@jennygoldsmith261 Exactly. I was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it.
remember this ELVIS is still the KING
