    Thoroughly enjoyed the interview. He touched on a subject that has always been a question for me. Why was Elvis not recognized for the amazing talents he had. There should have been Grammys, Best Actor Award, etc. He sang Gospel so extremely well and received a Grammy for this. He was the only entertainer that could make any song his OWN. But not one award for his capabilities. Sorry, just get carried away. These are just my thoughts, and in addition, he was completely thankful for his fans and extremely generous. He was and is such an exemplary person. He had an amazing heart, just wish he was still with us. No, he will never be forgotten or replaced.💔💓❤ God Bless

      You should go one of his concerts. You want be disappointed. He has stories about Elvis and a ton of other people. He's one lucky guy. If you go to Ronniemcdowell.com this Friday he's doing a Facebook live concert since he can't tour. He played last Friday which made me happy because he was supposed to be here in Mississippi for a concert. That darn virus. He was supposed to come back the end of May and that's canceled too. It's really bad for all our entertainers. So many are going live so I appreciate that. Ronnie is a ton of fun. He treats his fans so good. He, his family and everyone who works for him are so down to earth. He has so much talent it's unbelievable. I could go on all day about him. I remember the first time I heard The King Is Gone. It blew me away. I was 13 years old and still sad about Elvis but that song changed everything for me. I told Ronnie my story and it really touched him. He even kissed my hand. Wasn't expecting that but that was a sweet moment. Ronnie loves to talk to his fans, I have tons of autographs, he loves getting his pictures taken with his fan and he gives good hugs. Just a super nice guy.

    I really enjoyed this interview with Mr. Ronnie Mcdowell. He said "There was Elvis and then there was them.". I agree in they were JEALOUS of Elvis and why he didn't get the recognition that he deserved. He knew his fans appreciated him. Look at the fans he has today and you Mr. Spa Guy keeping his memory alive and doing Elvis history ! You in my opinion are the best at Elvis history than all on youtube. Thank you. Keep tightening up. God bless.

    Ronnie has always impressed me as a wonderful guy and a terrific singer in his own right but when he sings as Elvis, the emotion that he feels comes though better than any of the impersonators. There is a video on TH-cam where he sings “Don’t” that will just blow you away. Did Ronnie ever meet Elvis or see him perform?
    Thanks again Billy!

    Thank you Spa Guy for such an interesting interview. I remember hearing his song “The King is gone” when it came out soon after Elvis passed away. I hadn’t heard it literally since then so I decided to listen to it just now. OMG 😮 the memories came flooding back. I feel like I’m 14 years old all over again. And it’s made me so sad 😞 I do however love this song and remember every word of it.🥰🥰🥰
