Marty Lacker, a member of Elvis' famed Memphis Mafia and one of the best men at Elvis' 1967 wedding, died Monday after suffering from kidney failure. He was 80. He's the second member of the Memphis Mafia to die in recent months, following the November 2016 death of Joe Esposito, the other best man at Elvis' wedding.
'He went to school with (Elvis), that’s how they met. My dad was from New York, the Bronx, and he dressed just like Elvis did. They just formed a bond of friendship through that. They always took up for each other. Both of them went into the army and afterwards, a good friend of his re-introduced them and he went to work for him', said Mr. Lacker's son, Mark. 'They were like brothers. They respected each other'.

Sounds like Elvis’ wedding was anything but a happy moment.
I wish people would quit slamming my cousin. He loved Cilla very much and never really got over her. They kept in close contact. We all make mistakes, and I don't think anyone has room to talk. I still have relatives working with Graceland
@@sharongoeglein Nothing says, “I love you very much” like sleeping with everything that moves. And of course, there was his rule that Priscilla could only be in Vegas for the opening and closing show. I can’t imagine not having my wife and child with me for a whole month.
@@sharongoeglein poor elvis was conned in to the wedding and oh yes he got over he well and truly over her she was and is a gold digger the best at it
You know that is what everyone has been saying in the last few years, but it is a new thing. NONE of the early books said that Elvis did not want to marry Priscilla or that he cried before the wedding, etc. It seems strange to me that it just popped up suddenly a few years ago. Before that it was that Elvis cried after she left him.
@@sharongoegleinhe absolutely adored her and the ONLY ones who speak negatively about Lisa and Cilla were the leaches like Marty.
Love Marty Lacker. He's so honest and doesn't care what anybody thinks.
Same thing can be said for Dave Hebler is the same. I had a interesting call with him.
He was my favorite of all the guys.
But this is not even true. Priscilla did not live with Elvis when she was 16. The other MM and Priscilla have all said that Priscilla visited Elvis for two weeks when she was 16. How can you visit someone if you are already living with them?
Not true.
@@saphireblue3563priscilla did live with Elvis when she was 16 she lived there and went to school. Marty was a great friend to elvis and has never lied or made up stories Get your facts right before you comment
His cook also said he did not want to get married- I think her name is Mary, she found him in the kitchen very depressed and he told her he does not want to marry anyone
That's it..why buy the cow when the milk is free
@@richardcray2919 Actually, everyone knew and Priscilla stated that she was a virgin on their wedding night. Elvis adamantly refused to have sex with her before marriage. He had ideas about purity in a wife that were part religious and part social. It was so prevalent that, in the old days, some men didn't want to sleep with their wife again if she was r@ped during the marriage. They referred to it as being "ruined".
On a positive note, a woman psychologist, in the early 1900's, began to discreetly survey married women about their sex lives around 1920. I'd have to research to find out her name because I don't remember... All were virgins at the time of their weddings which all occurred around the late 1800's to 1900. Of these women, around 80% didn't have sex on their wedding nights. Their husbands waited; some waited weeks. I found that to be very sweet of these young grooms. Imagine leaving your father's house to marry while having no amorous experience. Girls were sheltered in those days.... Because these men wanted their wives to feel secure and marriages to be happy, they didn't pressure their brides.
Isn't this the same one who originally said he was crying after the divorce, saying "I didn't think she would ever leave me"?
Really Mary wrote a book on how much Priscilla was Elvis Glue and that Cilla would visit often. lol!
@@richardcray2919 But he wasn't drinking the milk.
Ive ALWAYS felt that Priscilla was a conniving snake!!
So true and. A bad wife and mother
Not a snake…a freaking Quimera…that’s also part snake.
What do i hear jealously rearing its head?
@@marywinter809 Jealous? Of a snake? Not hardly. If You can't see her for WHAT she is,your blind!
She still is
One of the best interviews of an Elvis confidant I've ever heard.
Wow. Elvis changed his mind about marrying Priscilla. Well that wasn’t in Baz Lurmann’s, errrr I mean Priscilla’s movie. It’s very clear that Director Baz Lurmann had no choice but to make his Elvis movie according to Priscilla’s narrative. And if not, no movie. She’s always controlled the ‘Elvis narrative, since the day he died in 1977. It’s easy to control the narrative of dead people. And she knows it. The fact that she managed Presley Enterprises after his death. Without challenges for so many decades and on a really high income, says it all. Becos sad fact is, Elvis’s father died 2 years later in 1979. So even Vernon couldn’t control her power tripping. Cause he was dead too. Glad tho, Riley Keough was given control of Presley Enterprises after Lisa Marie’s death. Finally gettin the power and money of Priscilla. But as we know, not without a fight.
If you watch Priscilla’s interview from the 80’s with Barbara Walters, she admits it there herself that Elvis didn’t want to get married. You see, Priscilla contradicts herself from her old interviews to the BS she says today. I bet if she could destroy those old interviews, she would in a heartbeat.
Nice to get the truth. I think it was the plan all along. Priscilla gers pregnant and she is fixed for life..by using his name and "having his baby"!
This anti Priscilla narrative is tiresome. Elvis married one woman and had one child. Sonny West said he thought Elvis only loved two women, one of whom was Priscilla complicated as the relationship was.
Charlie Hodge said the happiest times that they all had that he misses were the times right after Elvis got married and they would all have dinner together with Elvis and Priscilla.
Elvis didn't want to get married yet was also shattered during the divorce? Would go on and on about his wife being stolen and/or his family breaking apart?
Elvis himself said 1972 or 73 was "the worst year of his life" if I remember
And btw Riley and Priscilla have a good relationship as both have said.
Yes!!!
@@NickyMetropolis1313 Well my friend there have been two different camps since Elvis's death. The Pro-Cilla camp and the Anti Cilla camp. Those in the Pro camp and there were not many, were Charlie Hodge, George Klein, Joe Esposito, one of Elvis's cooks. and the big one in the Pro camp of course,... Jerry Shilling. All of these people have benefited from siding with Cilla after Elvis's death. They knew full well it was going to be Priscilla controlling the Elvis narrative, after she so connivingly and wickedly in fact gained trusteeship of the Elvis estate, GRACELAND. Elvis left Cilla nothing in his will. She got enough money during their divorce settlement and well after it , bleeding Elvis for more and more and more money right up till his death. The vast majority of people around Elvis and Priscilla, including a number of Elvis family members and employees in the house have stated Elvis did not want her as his wife and she in fact was cold calculating entitled and greedy as hell. One of the other cooks in the house, because Elvis had several cooks said quite the opposite to what Mary Jenkins said. Mary was kept on by Priscilla as cook in Graceland for every time she wanted to visit there, and what's more some of Elvis's family members were still living there after Elvis's death, Mary was being paid from the Graceland estate funds that priscilla was controlling. Anyway, the point is as the years have rolled on many of the fans have switched sides. The Anti Cilla camp has gotten bigger and bigger as the truth emerges about Priscilla Beaulieu.
Amazing interview. No surprises where Priscilla and her family are concerned. I’m just sorry Lisa Marie had to suffer for it.
I loved Ma
I loved Marty Lacker he tells the truth and has no reason to lie he was there you were not
@@sandraleonard945yes he does he changed his story from his book where he speaks so highly of the wedding and pricsilla and he BASHED Lisa! He was a leech. He hoped the fence to the aubodon house and tried so hard to fit in with Elvis and used him from day one
thank you so much for uploading this. I loved it, you can hear he's genuine, no BS, just stating things as they were at the time. Great video to listen to, all Elvis fans should take 30 mins out of their day to hear Marty talk.
All genuine EP fans already know all these and more. It's people who are ignorant of ALL pertinent facts relating to EP who need to get educated.
@@Elvistathere are a lot of Elvis fans I see on social media who often state things that are contrary to what Marty is talking about here. Everything here is from Marty's perspective of course however, his recollection of thoughts flow and you hear a genuine love for Elvis in the way he speaks. It's a deep dive into his thoughts on Joe & Jerry and gives fans a clearer insight into why certain people work in and around EPE and while others don't. It should be patently obvious that Elvis was pressured into marrying Priscilla, not just from what Marty states here but also from female relationships he had almost immediately before and carried on not too long after getting married.
@@zucan100 nothing wrong with what Marty relates in the interviews....he was one of the very few who was honest, fearlessly loyal, and actually cared about EP. He's only reiterating what most EP fans preach on a daily basis. Many are now realizing who "Joe" and "Jerry" really were. EP realized too late, unfortunately.
@@Elvista JOE AND JERRY WERE THE REAL FRIENDS. LISA HATED MARTY LACKER...HE BETRAYED ELVIS!!
@@ronw9901 if you believe that then you know very little. Lisa did not hate him. She was manipulated by her mother in favor of her fellow snakes. That is why P'zilla has Jerry currently doing her bidding in the background while he's out there publicly pretending to be a "loyal friend" to EP. Joe was no different - a user and co-conspirator with the alien manager and said plastic ex-wife. Both of these are men who betrayed EP in more ways than one behind his back while he gave them the benefit of the doubt. Snakes can be mesmerizing, too, as the saying goes.
Fantastic interview with Marty. His recall to detail is amazing.. feel like I'm watching a movie.
Elvis Should Of Never Got Married To Priscilla . Elvis Just Said In The Conversation He Didn't Want To Marry Priscilla Elvis Was Pressured Into Marrying Priscilla . Period .
He still loved her
What conversation?
@@ronw9901 I think so too.
Ty for sharing this interview admire Marty’s honesty🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️
Glad you enjoyed it
Really enjoyed this vid. Marty L. always comes across as being quite honest and candid. Marty L. misspoke when he said that Prissy was 16 years old when she came to live with EP. She was actually 17 years old in 3/63 and Prissy would turn 18 in two-months, an adult (DOB: 5/24/45).
Another thing that perplexes me is:
• Why would her father drop her off in 3/63? Why not wait until the end of the school year? She only had two months left and she could have graduated in Germany. Also, she would have been 18 years old. It just appears to be rushed. Why? EP was NOT at Graceland. He was still in CA filming.
• Why did her father bring her this time when the prior two visits she was unescorted. Just to finalize things with EP? Appearances? Hmmm??
• Also, my understanding is that her father was being transferred to Travis AFB, CA in 6/63. Why not just wait and finish high school in Germany and then fly back state-side, along with her family. She would have been 18. She could have then easily connected with EP in CA. Her father could have finalized things with EP at that time. Hmmm?
• Paul B. dropped her off in Memphis at Vernon's house; however, shortly afterwards Prissy took it upon herself to move to Graceland. Again, EP was still in CA.
I'll always view Prissy and her parents as being "schemers" and "opportunists" from the very beginning, who wanted to keep their "hooks" in EP. It just seems to me, that there’s a whole lot more going on here than meets the eye.
Родителям этой хитрой девушки нужны были деньги и слава ,для дочери и для себя любимых.Хотелось хорошо Присциллу пристроить.За это надо было на них в суд подать ,за то что они несовершеннолетнюю дочь подсунули своими руками ,добровольно к взрослому мужчине!!!Они 🐍🦠.Просто, если бы не встретилась эта хитрая девушка на пути Элвиса ,возможно он бы дольше жил.Очень жаль.Творческие люди ,особенно знаменитые, куклы в руках всяких продуманных проходимцев!!Надо видео распространять!😢
Absolutely.... Priscilla was seeing Elvis in tabloids, writing letters asking Elvis to ask her parents for her. What parent drops off their 16yo daughter to a 26 yo Elvis, parents who want their daughter to be rich, parents who've rec'd a promise from Elvis that he'll eventually marry her. They wanted this bad enough that they would take her out of school in her final year to start fresh somewhere else without their oversight. Elvis is to blame too though, what he wanted, he always got. Pity he didn't realise until later, it wasn't what he actually wanted.
@@zucan100 He was still dating and living with Anita Wood when Priscilla was 16. What’s up with that massive plot hole. And there are not even pictures of that visit. Just about the time she moved with him, when she was 18. Suspicious enough?
I always felt her father had some kind of "hold" over Elvis since his army days because her father was in the service too at the same time.
She was on a talk show once and admitted she hounded Elvis with phone calls, letters, etc. and used her father as clout. She practically walked out when the interviewer asked her how could any parent place their underage daughter to live with a grown man and she said her parents had no choice because she always gets what she wants.
@@sherriianiro747 OMG!! What the heck! would love to hear that interview. Can you locate it?
We know she "hotly pursued" him. And, I'm not surprised about using her father's rank. Someone told me not that long ago, that things weren't happening fast enough with Currie Grant so Prissy had her daddy invite EP to the house. You know, that's when he wore his uniform to meet her parents and that's when pictures were taken.
The book, Down at the End of Lonely Street:
The Life and Death of Elvis Presley by Peter
Harry Brown and Pat H. Broeske, it was Alberta that found Elvis crying over the upcoming wedding in 1967. Trying to comfort him, she asked her young superstar why he wouldn't simply call off the wedding if it was making him this unhappy.
To Alberta, Elvis simply replied: "I don't have a choice.."
It’s funny because it’s claimed that it was the night before and Alberta wasn’t even in Palm Springs LOL!
I can’t write a book and say whatever I want too…. dead men tell no tales! Elvis never associated or knew half the people who put out BS books and things about him with no respect
I still believe to this day, with all my heart, that slip and bump Elvis took in the bathroom went unproperly diagnosed and played a major part in his early demise.
It was one of the three head injuries he had that caused autoimmune inflammatory disorder: Tennant F. Elvis Presley: Head Trauma, Autoimmunity, Pain, and Early Death. Pract Pain Manag. 2013;13(5). By Dr Forest Tennant
@@GingerLauren7327 I agree ☝️
Heart issues were in his family too. His mom died at 46.
You are absolutely right. Dr. Tennant confirms this in his book The strange medical saga of Elvis Presley.
@@christ_1512 Phenomenal read. 😊
Marty was a true friend to elvis and not just another yes man. Rest in peace Marty
Bull,his antisemitic accusations are completely false.thiis needs to control his mouth.only prejudice attitude is this guy's anti gentilism hiding behind remarks about those were the days and the south.all bullshit.
None of them were true friends of Elvis.
He was a complete snake to Elvis and Lisa said it! He bashed Lisa too. He’s trash.
@@saphireblue3563Charlie hodge and Jd sumner were FAR FROM
@@TCB_MAMA They, along with Larry Geller, were his only true friends.
Marty is very articulate and very detailed and quite insightful with a memory like a steel trap. One of the originals and a straight shooter.
Yeah and he was doing this far worse than elvis was lisa marie said
With no loyalty either
Marty made THE CORRECT POINT about Priscilla's dad going to the media --- he would have been complicit in giving his under-aged daughter to a powerful of-age man.
MARTY IS SO RIGHT HE WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL WITH ELVIS ALSO
@@sandraleonard945Marty wasn’t even friends with him in highschool he came to aubodon and jumped the fence when he saw $$$$$
When Priscilla came to live with Elvis she was over 18.
@@saphireblue3563 She was 17. But that's irrelevant --- she was 14 when he began dating her.
@@HomeAtLast501 She was 3 months short of 18. When Elvis returned from his trip she was 18 years and one month old. As for her being 14 when he began dating her so what?
This Is Heartbreaking To Hear What Happened To Elvis . * Elvis Said Even At The Very Last Minute He Didn't Want To Marry Priscilla . Elvis Should Of Listened To Himself and Not Marry Priscilla . If Only We Would Listen To Ourselves Sometimes . How Life Can Get So Messed Up When We Don't Listen To That Voice Inside Of Ourself . That One Mistake Can Change Our Whole Life . For Life .
That book was trash...I wouldnt even pick it up. It hurt elvis deeply. You don't betray your so called friend by writing about their personal things they dont want exposed. Its a betrayal. And elvis saw it that way when he was alive
Let. Elvis rest now. All these books. And movies isnott going to change
Let. Elvis rest now. All these books and movies will not change anything. It's the past Let it go. Work on your future. Stop listening to a bunch of lies. Somebody is always trying to pull the bucks in over false statements. The truth would sure sound better. So many lies being told you don't know what or who to believe. Let it go. Let. Elvis rest. This has been going on since. Elvis s passing. Let. Elvis rest. He sure deserves it
He kinda did it to himself, by letting that devil in then "inviting" her to graceland.
So all these guys got so upset because they were not present at the wedding of a guy who did not want to get married??? Utterly bizarre!!! If they'd thought anything of Elvis, they should've been glad to stay away as the entire thing was based on a blackmail threat by Beaulieu's father.
I think what aggravated them was that some were allowed there while Colonel Parker was calling the shots.
There was nothing they could blackmail him on.
Very interesting enjoyed Both Parts and have a Big respect for Marty.
there are 4 parts
@@jkrein82 I actually did listen to All 4 Parts Great interviews Joe Thanks .
MARTY IS TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS MY UNCLE FOUND ELVIS CRYING IN THE DINNING ROOM BECAUSE HER FATHER HAD THREATENED HIM TO RUIN HIS POPULARITY
MARTY LACKER IS A LIAR AND BETRAYED ELVIS WHEN ELVIS WAS ALIVE.....LISA HATED HIM!
@@ronw9901how?
@@ronw9901Wow, Did Lisa tell you that?
@@ronw9901 how did Marty betray Elvis? If LMP hated Elvis, I'd say it was fostered by Priscilla and the fact Marty contributed to documentaries. Maybe has LMP got older she might have realised that life is sometimes grey. Elvis loved being Elvis and had some quirks, he was a flawed man as much as a fantastic entertainer.
@@zucan100Bingo!
Thank you very much for posting! Enjoyed Marty's interview very much. TCB ⚡
Glad you enjoyed it
Marty did such a beautiful job with Elvis’ wedding suit! What a rude thing for Joe and Col. Parker to exclude Red West and the rest at the ceremony!😮
Marty was butthurt Pricsilla politely declined him designing her dress and so he threw a pitty party tantrum about her.
No doubt in my mind that not only did Priscilla's father threaten Elvis but I'm sure she did as well.
@@user-golden-rhapsody5915 He never rejected her.
lol watch Elvis by the Presleys! Lisa loves her grandparents and they all laugh. So fabricated!!!!
If you watch Priscilla’s old 80’s interview with Barbara Walters she herself admits Elvis didn’t want to marry her. The problem with Priscilla is she forgets everything she ever said about Elvis is documented either on film or print, yet she constantly contradicts herself to suit her narrative which gives her away. We know she’s full of crap and so are Jerry and Joe to go along with her narrative, especially the “Elvis was so sad and wanted her back narrative.” He probably was sad that she sued him and he had to give her so much money and 5% of his publishing. I’d be sad too. If you read her Wikipedia page it tells you exactly what she took him for in the divorce, also there’s links there (I believe it’s under other) where there’s articles saying she changed her name back to Beaulieu after the divorce. After he died she went back to Presley to get her foot in the door to Hollywood.
Oh shut it you hater.
She did not say that Elvis did not want to marry her.
@@saphireblue3563 Have you ever figured any reasonable way in which Tom Parker and Priscilla's father would have ruined Elvis' career had he refused to marry Priscilla in a way that it would have worked out for either of them? Wouldn't everyone have ended up broke with Parker having destroyed the career of his only client and Priscilla's father assuring that he'd break his daughter's heart if he ruined Elvis and Elvis refused to see her again? The whole premise of Elvis being blackmailed into marrying never made any sense to me and the idea that Elvis would confide in the hired help, no matter how much they meant to him, that he didn't want to go through with the wedding knowing Priscilla would come to Graceland as the new Mrs. Presley and might overhear them discussing what Elvis told them never made sense either. None of the "Elvis was trapped into marriage" reasons add up at all and Elvis had plenty of years to ditch Priscilla if he really wanted to do so.
@@debra2700 It doesn't make any sense to me either. There was NOTHING in any of the early books saying that Elvis was blackmailed or forced to marry Priscilla. That is a new idea that just started about five years ago. I think if there was anything that "forced" him it would have been that she was pregnant. If that was true he would never have told anyone, he would have just kept it between him and Priscilla. But in her first book, Dee Presley said that six months before they married Elvis and Priscilla called her in the room and announced that they were engaged to be married in six months. So really, if Elvis ever said, "I have to" he must just have meant that he had promised and had to keep his promise.
The employees who now say they saw Elvis crying before the marriage used to say they found him crying after the divorce. Its unreal how stories grow.
She did not say that.
❤ Joe and jerry catered to Priscilla even to the end.
JERRY IS STILL DOING IT
Просто парни развали ли брак ЭЛВИСА их не устраивал семейный человек .Обвинять отца Присциллы в шантаже это абсурд.Каждый член мафии хотел быть значимым для Элвиса . На счёт принуждения к браку Элвиса на Присцилле оправдание самих себя что у них не получилось разрушить их отношения.Элвис прекрасно понимал когда приглашал Присциллу к себе жить зная что она подросток и дал обещания её отцу .ЭЛВИС не жертва принуждённого брака этот брак был его решением и что бы не говорили члены его мафии
Joe was a fake..He was out to become number 1 to Elvis..Joe had a brown nose. He was out for himself, always wanted more parties n woman.. Couldn't get them without Elvis..

@@gaylegardinerankerry12123Joe did also until he died!
What a horrible way to start a marriage, and so sad. Not surprising how it turned out. It seems the Beaulieu's have not changed. Suing her own granddaughter for Lisa's money?
Ridiculous way to start a marriage. Elvis had a girlfriend immediately before and not long after getting married. Doomed from the start and cost him dearly. The one good thing he got from that marriage was LMP. Best business decision Priscilla ever made.
@@zucan100Best business decision for Sciencetology.
I don't want to support scientology (neither did Elvis)(He said all those S*ns of Bitches want is my money)....and he was right💯👌
Nancy Rook, Elvis' maid, said that the night before his wedding, Elvis cried as he told her Parker pressured him into marrying Priscilla. This was akin to a shotgun wedding without a gun. If a person is forced to marry, then that marriage has zero chance..Seven months after the marriage, Elvis left Priscilla.He did
return.
ELVIS WAS THE ONE THAT BROUGHT HER here..he should have left her in Germany and not encouraged her to come to USA......Elvis was pretty opinated so i dont believe Parker forced him to marry her..with his fame and good looks ..if Elvis wanted he could had dumped Parker and any one and everyone Record Co would have picked him up immediately .....he grew up in the 60s with the thousands of other rock and rollers that didnt do too bad with their Managers...
😂 I bet these guys act like a bunch of school girls trying to get close to elvis
Rick Stanley told me Elvis did not want to marry Priscilla and she knew it!
So why he kept Priscilla in his home all these years then? To look at her? Nobody is able to answer that question not even these people close to him.
@@JCX-9 that's what i been saying all along!!
@@JCX-9Believe it or not but Elvis was very superficial, he liked her mainly for her looks aka bone structure lol as he always said. But Elvis tried to mold her into his soulmate or ideal woman but he realized that it isn’t possible. Also, Elvis wanted Priscilla to leave by herself because he hated confrontation and he could never break up with any girl and on top of that was the pressure of Priscilla‘s stepfather to finally „make an honest woman of Priscilla“ in her stepfather’s words. It was all messed up but truth is, he got into a situation and winded up with somebody he should have never winded up with.
Also if you read many of the books their relationship fell apart from the beginning. Early on when Elvis and Elvis' friends would ride off on their motor bikes /Harleys, she would follow on her pink Suzuki. They would ride way ahead of her and just ignore her. Even though they were married when she tried to spend the night with Elvis in Vegas when he was performing he wouldn't allow her to stay in the same hotel room. There's a good account of this in Letters from Elvis By Gary Lindberg. Elvis set up dates with other women and have her clothing removed from the closet. When she would visit he'd arrange for her clothes to be put back.

At least Elvis apologized to Marty. Marty was a straight shooter. I bet Vernon was afraid of what might happen. Elvis didn't want to get married. He was forced into getting married by Precilla's Dad and the Colonel. The other men weren't happy about Marty being Elvis' best man.
Of course Priscilla and her dad would deny it. She knew that it would affect future $ and her future.
❤ Straight from the horse's mouth, this is great.
Glad you liked it . I had no idea people would want to hear them
I would say that Marty more resembles a jackass than a horse. I’m sure he loved the cars and 100 s of perks that Elvis provided all those guys.
Great Video Very Interesting & The Truth !! Also the Best Recordings Elvis ever did came out of American Sound Studios
Thanks for listening
Excellent interview. Marty was a good friend, and this interview shows.
Best interviews I heard. So genuine, thanks you.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Why do u write stuff n put all these crappy emojis..
Hollie...you can keep the lil emoji out... saying nothing anyway!!!
We're talking about the King not imjo
Maybe some ppl just don't get it!!!!!! One day they will and understand why emoji has nothing here.. Thanks
There is no evidence to suggest that Elvis had Jewish blood. His blood line has been well researched. As he said he didn't want to miss out on heavan due to a technicality hence wearing crosses plus other religous paraphernalia. He also did the same for his mother hence the Jewish marker on her grave.
Priscilla has just recently sued her own grandaughter for elvis's Estate.tells you everything you need to know
She's just evil
Not true. Even Riley said so.
@kathy73160 erm it's public record priscilla tried to overpower Riley for power of attorney of graceland.priscilla has always lived off of elvis name and reputation even tho she went with Mike Stone.all you have to do in these situations and people's behaviour is look for patterns it's evident innit
Yes Priscilla did try to override Rilley over a will Lisa Marie had left to her girls . Priscilla LEFT Elvis and NOW she wants to be buried at Graceland ?! I think Priscilla needs Psycho Analized and I think Priscilla needs to be BANNED off the Graceland estate !
Elvis's grand daughter Riley Keough has just been granted sole ownership of Graceland 👍
❤ Elvis loves having all these guys around Hill. Like every like having your 10 best friends living with you.
Elvis was not the marrying kind. He loved all women to settle for just one. Elvis was threatened by. Priscilla s dad and her. She knew how. Elvis wss about women. Why did she marry him. It all boils down to MONEY. Love you Elvis. Presley.
Boy everybody has to tell all the crap! He's gone and can't defend himself! I hope everybody's proud of themselves, these people who LOVED him so much!!
Marty was the most honest person n you can take what he says to the bank..He didn't say anything bad about Elvis..If ur from back in the day,you already knew Elvis never had a mind of his own..Parker always had front stage..why Elvis allowed it is beyond comprehension..No one ever understood why..As far as his marriage,we all knew back then it was a given , Elvis didn't want to get married.why Priscilla married a man she knew didn't want to marry her was ridiculous..He never wanted to marry anyone.. Doesn't make him a bad guy,but he was a man that kept his word all the time...
Joe Espito was the worse person for Elvis.. When they would go away together n Elvis had enough he wanted to go home..But Joe would talk Elvis into staying Saying " why do we have to go home.?So ELVIS would stay longer..It amazing to me that Elvis allowed everyone to make plans n just go along with.Great man he was,but got closed in with some of the wrong ppl that he hired..Red,Sonny,Jerry n Marty were the best for Elvis...
@@gailcalderone5229and Biily
@@gailcalderone5229 do u agree all the cheating he did to her. No wonder she met someone that gave her love and attention
@@suefenner9217 Yes I do agree .but it's still sad..But no normal woman could live a life like that..Not saying she was right but neither was he
"I believe that Elvis' marriage to her failed simply because he realized after the wedding that he didn't really want to be married."
Vernon Presley, 1978
Elvis knew how to play people. In the end he had 2 best men.
I don't get why Elvis and Vernon blew up at Marty when Elvis was pleased with the job his brother in law had done.
I always wondered why he chose Marty instead of Red to be his best man.
I bet Parker did it but why?
I will have Donnie Sumner up next
@@jkrein82 Agree Parker organized it all. Will you be posting part 3????
Because he trusted Marty more.
yes

The worst mistake elvis ever made was marry pricilla ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love hearing Marty Talking! Love herring This!❤❤ Thank You 🙏 so much!🎸🎤🎤🎸🥰
Thanks for listening
Excellent. Thank you for the upload.
Thanks for listening
Just happened on this, great info! Great intwrview
Everyone should read 📚 Elvis and The Memphis Mafia it is very good everything Marty is saying is In the Book it is fantastic
..it's basically The Elvis Bible
Elvis didn't live with her @ 16yrs. She was 17 yrs she moved there in March & her birthday was May of that year she would be 18 legal age
Elvis has Jewish blood in him himself from his mother. He adored her, but not enough to stand up to his Father in honor not only for his Mom, but for himself. So sad that Marty had to bear that cross. God bless Marty for the wonderful, honest man he was.
He actually didn't and neither did Gladys have any Jewish blood. There is a different meaning regarding a six pointed star in Christian tradition. Also, Jewish people have intentionally created confusion about Elvis lineage due to Abner Tackett marrying a Jewish woman, Nancy J. Burdine, in the summer of 1873. However, Abner was married to Celia Butler Tackett - another Christian - in 1827 and she lived until February 1873. _She_ was the mother of Martha Tackett, and they are Elvis' maternal ancestors. Elvis believed in symbolism and the six pointed star is the Star of Creation in Christian tradition. Elvis people were a mix of Methodist, Pentecostal and Baptist.
Marty was a good guy and always very honest.
NO HE WASNT. HE WAS ONE OF THE WORSE AROUND ELVIS...LISA HERSELF SAID SO ALONG WITH THE BETRAYERS SONNY AND RED WEST. THIS WAS RIGHT OUT OF LISAS MOUTH!
@@ronw9901 Lisa didn't know much. She was a kid. She never understood them.
@@TCB0816 True, however kids have good intuition!!
@@ronw9901 Respectfully, Lisa was 9 years old when Elvis died. I don't doubt that she loved her father. However, she was a child. She didn't know much; how could she?
@@ronw9901Lisa was fed BS by Pricilla!
Can’t find all 4 parts! I love this. Thanks for posting

Really enjoyed this interview. R.I.P Marty…..T⚡️C⚡️B…..👍💯
Joe Esposito was a incredible sneaky little
s h t .
TOTALLY AGREE ABOUT JOE ESPOSITO BEING A LITT S H T
And very rude like he was the star
Don't agree at all
Your right about Esposito. He was a real snitch. He would report back to Elvis's manager that degenerate Tom Parker on everything that was being said and done at Graceland. He was also as pissed as hell when Elvis chose Marty Lacker to be his best man. Joe had to be number one. He complained to Elvis, and Elvis felt pressured into incorporating him as co-best man after that. He also sucked up to Priscilla big time after she and Elvis were divorced, but especially after Elvis died. Hec which side did his loyalties lie? Almost all of the Memphis Mafia never had anything good to say about Priscilla and the things she did and her cold and calculating character, but Esposito was singing her praises as was Jerry Shilling. Both profited enormously after Elvis died covering up the sham of a marriage that Elvis had with Priscilla. They were great liars just like her and she loved them for it. Priscilla dated Shilling after Elvis died as well. So, she hit on Sonny West as well as Jerry Shilling. Sonny though rejected her.
Yes, he was in with Parker to get whatever he could.
This is one of the most precious interviews in history. TCB⚡
Defo more than old Parker involved in the Business of Elvis. So the song caught in a trap was v apt😮
Having a room full of goons following me around 24/7 trying to please me would drive me mad. What a nightmare.
I don't know why Elvis wanted that.
Marty’s dialect is such an interesting combination of north and south.
This guy- I would bet everything I own- is telling the absolute truth about everything here.
Poor Elvis .
❤ So Marty's family designed Elvis's bedroom and the jungle room or den.
No!! Linda n Elvis designed the room.. Marty's family did the work..
Linda designed the Jungle room, the pool table room with the fabric on the walls and ceiling, the yellow and black room and the stained glass peacocks in the living room and the stained glass at the front door.
@@millieabrams9967 Yes I know that...I was talking about the jungle room...
And the meditation Garden...
@@millieabrams9967 Listen..I know what Linda designed. But it was Elvis that told her what he wanted..Do I need to into her exact words..
What year were these interviews with Marty, also the one with Sam Thompson?
😮 Morris sounds like he knows a little bit about the record business.
Just a question:Priscilla is not involved in the too small room to invite the guys to Elvis ceremony ?
Elvis' mother was part Jewish. She also had Cherokee blood. I doubt she was racist against anyone.
No Jewish !!!
How do you know Elvis DNA just curious
@@Larry-ok4vf I do my research.
I beleive him elvis wasnt perfect who is but he def was a giver an still The King sad story alrite all about money in the end
All pricilla thinks about is making money out of elvis thats why she kept the presley name so she could make money out of elvis ❤❤

There is no evidence that Elvis had Jewish blood in him. He said he didn't want to miss out on heavan due to a technicality hence wearing crosses plus other religous paraphernalia. He also did the same as a marker on his mother's grave. Elvis was of European descent mainly Scottish on both sides of his family.
He was of Cherokee descent on his mother's side and you can see it in him.
@Ikastelis8764 I said MAINLY Scottish this doesn't preclude other influences.
After all these years the truth comes out . Always knew there was a reason he married Pricilla. ( Nothing wrong with her but knew he wasn't ready ...)
Ha ha lol Elvis knew everyone around him was fake!!
Marty is right. He should have told Pricilla's father exactly what Marty said. And her father was a military father? What's that all about.. Elvis should never have married her. And thank you Marty for calling out that schmuck col.parker. That piece of **** .. Elvis was to loyal to that Parker. Once Elvis and Parker became wealthy and that was in the late 50's, Elvis should have given him no more than 15%..And Esposito was another piece of ****..Have to call them out. I've heard from the Memphis guys and the musicians like John Wilkinson and James Burton. If it walks like a duck etc.. Thank you Marty!! RIP Marty Lacker ( alav ha-shalom)
Marty Lacker Is So Right .
That’s so sad Elvis didn’t want to get married 😢
Elvis was very talented he could sing dance play piano make ppl laugh a great and amazing entertainer
he was so mis managed !
that's probably why he checked out with the drugs he sold his soul to the colonel 😢
Marty - a faithful friend 💜.
Oh poor you you had to ride in a plane to Vegas!! On his wallet
I can’t imagine anybody hitting their head on purpose for any reason😳come on Marty, that’s just ridiculous to inflict a serious injury on yourself to avoid doing something you don’t want to do. I don’t think Elvis was that crazy.
Great interview from Marty, very forthright.
Elvis may have felt cornered to marry Priscilla, but I do believe he loved her very much, despite what some people say, he wouldn’t of kept her around all those years if he didn’t want her. I thinks some of Elvis’s boys were jealous of the hold Priscilla had on Elvis and she also resented some of them, who can blame her, no wife wants a bunch of guys hanging around her house constantly, for years on end. Just goes to show Elvis’s level of immaturity to always insist on having all these guys around, and he had been, somewhat babied by his precious mother, growing up. His fame came so early, he never really grew up.
He became much more reclusive in the mid 70’s and didn’t want too many guys around anymore, due to his increasing drug dependency, other health problems and general disenchantment with a lot of the guys, the demands of Elvis’s lifestyle had taken a toll on everyone by this stage.
RIP ELVIS, always loved him and RIP Memphis Mafia, there are so few members left of Elvis’ s entourage sadly.
No way to know Elvis
No way anyone knows how Elvis felt about these women. She was the mother of his child. That's a bond for Elvis. He was cheating and Priz was cheating. She moved in with her lover for 4 years..dragging Lisa along.
He has to have something outstanding to say to keep you interested!!!
MARTY LACKER R.I.P.!!!
Living in Memphis I met several of the memphis mafia guys. I found Marty to be a bit of a jerk, but who am I to be nice to...
That would have not hurt Elvis's career. I don't think he knew how great he was. He really didn't need the circus side show of a manager either.
Ofcourse Priscilla step father denies Marty's accusations.
So many people, so many opinions, so many versions
of things that happened. I think that a lot of the people around
Elvis have passed away. I've been a fan for so long that
all the versions don't bother me, except to be sad for
Elvis, that his life was so complicated.
Very well said
Marty made this whole thing up. It does not jive with documented facts--like Priscilla's photos in her sophomore year in Germany. I don't know why so many Elvis fans take the word of these men who have betrayed Elvis. He is actually saying that Priscilla was living with Elvis when she was 16 which is a lie. Neither could the mother or father of Priscilla have gotten away with such a lie.
Was this interview published before? I am glad to hear that M. Jenkins' statement that Elvis cried because he didn't want to get married has now been confirmed for the 3rd time. And i believe that Marty Lacker said the truth. To me he sounds like one of the very few true Elvis friends. I always had the feeling that Priscilla loved to tell lies just as Joe Esposito and some of the other guys.
I did it such a long time ago i am not sure . We did play it on EER I am glad you enjoyed it .
I don't trust nobody with any word that comes out of their mouth. It's easy to talk about somebody who is no longer around. It's easier to make up stories. At the end, the term "mafia" suits them perfectly. They were a bunch of nobodies who lived off of Elvis. Everytime I hear one of his "friends" talk, I get sick and frustrated and feel really bad for Elvis. What did he do to deserve those people!?
Boy, do I agree, some of the stuff said doesn't sound right. They seem to bring up stuff that isn't very nice and talk bad about Elvis who is not here to defend himself. I think I am going to block these interviews, after listening to the first one something was off and it smelled rotten.
Back stabbers period.
They were Elvis friends Elvis wasn't stupid he needed these guys around him to do things for him. Elvis could not just go out and buy a ham sandwich without being mobed so he would send one of the guys. These guys would have taken a bullet for Elvis.
I agree with you!!
@@catfish24would they!? Are you sure? Because I have my doubts... Elvis might have taken a bullet for them, but the other way round...!? I don't think so.
О принуждении Элвиса к браку говорил не только Марти Лакер , но и другие
люди . Это признала даже сама Присцилла . Элвис был , как большой
ребёнок, он запутался в своих отношениях ,возможно увидел какова
настоящая Присцилла , был в ней разочарован ? Потому и плакал перед
свадьбой . , не хотел жениться , предчувствовал , что будет несчастен ?
К нему нельзя подходить , как к обычному человеку , и если бы была
жива его мама этого поспешного , неудачного брака бы не было .
А сама Присцилла много лет спустя признала , что им лучше было не
жениться вообще . Верно , они совсем разные люди ,только Лиза
их обьединяла.
I hope you don't mind but i translated it for you .
Not only Marty Lacker, but also others spoke about forcing Elvis into marriage
People . Even Priscilla herself admitted this. Elvis was like big
child, he is confused in his relationships, perhaps he saw what
the real Priscilla, were you disappointed in her? That's why I cried before
wedding , didn’t want to get married, had a presentiment that he would be unhappy?
You cannot approach him like an ordinary person, and if there were
if his mother were alive, this hasty, unsuccessful marriage would not have happened.
And Priscilla herself admitted many years later that it was better for them not
get married at all. That's right, they are completely different people, only Lisa
united them.
Honestly, why did Elvis need all these people around him?
Muchas gracias por compartir ELVIS FOREVER ❤
"And that wedding thing, that wedding thing ...I had nothing to do with that. That was railroaded through. | didn't even know who was there, we were in side that little room about the size of a bathroom with a supreme court justice. It was in there and over and done with so quick I didn't even realize that I was married."
Elvis taped by Red West, 1976
Elvis mother had Jewish blood, that's why the star of David was on her first tomb stone. Elvis had a Jewish friend early on named George Klein and Elvis treated him like a King. I am not sure about about Marty. In another interview Priscilla's father said that he never ever Pressured Elvis and that was a lie. Frankly Marty Lacker has never spoken well about Elvis, he has a sense of ego that is apparent. Anyway thanks.
No Jewish!!!
But Elvis had Jewish heritage from mothers side. George Klein one of his longest lasting friends was Jewish. So ??
His father didn't like Jewish🤷🏼♀️ Elvis didn't have any problem
THIS IS A LOAD OF CRAP!!
Elvis even designed a special headstone for his mother with the Jewish star of David when she passed. Vernon put it in the attic. It wasn't put in the meditation garden until 2 years ago. I know that. Probably really hurt Elvis and might've been part of the strain between Elvis and Vernon.
No Jewish !!!
Most people have Jewish heritage in them big deal
It looks like Elvis could have spoken up about having the guys be at the wedding. It looks obvious that Elvis was not in a celebratory mood- keeping the guys out of the wedding.
Priscilla only wanted money that's it she most probably was star struck the kid was just 14 years old but the parents seen money period to control everything afterwards, and that woman did to this day !
Lisa Marie was right. They were all users.
