I wanted to say thank you to Billy and Jo Smith for sharing your Elvis memories with us all. It can’t be easy to discuss / relive especially since Elvis was kin. Also, a special thank-you to Danielle Smith-Rowe for putting the huge amount of time it takes to produce these great video and audio clips for us all. Great job Danielle and your effort is appreciated
I love how you guys interact with each other. Hope you know how much each and every video you share with us is so appreciated. Danielle also deserves praise for all she does too. She's a beautiful young lady. Sending love and hugs to y'all.
Yep, "he gave so much." That was this incredible man in a nutshell. Thank you to the Smith family for answering people's questions. They are truly the nicest folk.
Danielle you're really good at wording the questions that people ask. I'm sure you get all kinds of questions and you're good at condensing them. You do a good job
I’m with you Jo, horrible with names but good with faces. I’ve watched the three of you for a long time and appreciate all that you share. How do I submit a question. If it’s here then I’d like to know if Elvis got more nervous for interviews than live shows or was he as relaxed as he seemed. Billy, you are too funny!😂
Billy you and Jo are terrific! I love learning more about Elvis. I found oud through genealogy that he's my 7th cousin. You have no idea how proud it makes me feel to know that. I can't learn about him enough!! Bless you so much for sharing him with us fans. Billy, I have a feeling Elvis loved you far more than any of the guys. You were like his little brother. Especially since he took you to the governor's party.
Thank you so much for sharing your memories of the greatest entertainer in our lifetime! I'm sure it's not easy for you since his life was cut short so suddenly. By the way Billy, thanks for telling us you joined the Masons. My Dad was a 50 year member, inactive for several of those years, but proud to receive his 50 year award. Love watching you talk about your cousin!
There will never ever be another Elvis Presley. He was was always afraid his fans would forget him, but he is more popular today then he was when he left the building in 1977. You can still feel the charisma through his videos today.i still listen to his music often.would Billy and Jo still live behind Graceland if he was alive today?
Wow!! Fascinating presentation you all touch base on alot of interesting subjects!! Mr Billy looking on at edge of stage & dancing girls antics was hilariously funny!! Thank you very much for always sharing EFM 👑🎁💖🌈
I really enjoy all your stories. I was only 14 when Elvis passed away and I remember exactly where I was when I found out that he had passed. I still miss him even though it's been as long as it has been. Keep the stories coming. Love you guys!!
hey Billy and Jo Smith thankyou so much do for elvis all no must very hard work for him had good day bad day bet all good fun long live levis forever in our heart
Thank you Billy, Jo and Danielle for the video. The whole population should be respectful and appreciative of our Service Men and Women no matter if they serve our Country or our Community as Elvis was very respectful of them. As parents of two Police Officers Sons and also you Billy and Jo "we" are proud of them! And appreciate the People that respect them. We love your videos. Arrivederci!
Ask Jo and Billy about the pick pocket Elvis worried about when y’all went to the show Elvis was worried the guy would pick his pocket and find his little box of pills so he gave them to Marty Lacker to hold. Marty told the story in a video.
Elvis sure did have a sense of humor, l think that Elvis's fellow actors may have been just a tiny bit jealous of him,after all he was and is the most gorgeous entertainer and actor of all time!
Billy and jo and daneille you’re videos are amazing fantastic and awesome too watch I love 💕 those stories about elvis an$ I’m find them so interesting too elvis fans matter and I always live elvis ⚡️🕺tlc tce tcb ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️4:53pm
Billy and Jo ,ya'll are so precious how you interacting with each other ! Love it .I know this is probably so bittersweet to relive these great memories . Thank Ya'll
Good morning guy’s it always makes my day listening about Elvis things he did. Elvis sounds like he was a really caring and loving young man. I do enjoy watching you and Danny thank you ❤
Very Good episode today! You two share so much of your lives with Elvis, it’s very kind of you! I love the way that you guys talk about Elvis like he was just everyone else! Thank You so much for your time!
Hi Billy, This was the first I heard you were a mason. I am also a mason at Saint Tammany Lodge in Hampton, Virginia. I am sure Elvis would have enjoyed the masons. He would have been a great Worshipful Master. Hope the weather there was cooler last week there than here. Working outside for a federal contractor on a military base in 109 heat index was very rough on my 67 year old body. Please, take care there, and thank y’all for sharing with all of us.
Hello to all the Smith family, great video! ❤ Mrs. Jo, my Momma told me the same thing, wait until you have breakfast before you tell me your dreams 😊 Wishing you cooler weather and stay safe. Grace and Alain from Canada ❤ ❤❤
@@efmelvisfansmatter1129 Hi, I guess we do too! 😊 I tell my husband the same thing and he never heard that expression either. I'd like to think my mom was southern as she was as sweet and loving as our southern neighbors ❤ My mom made baking powder biscuits when I was a kid and my husband never ate those either. It is a thrill to see your message, sending you all hugs ❤ Grace and Alain from Canada
Great session...😊 Look fwd to it every week. Thanks for sharing your Memories & answering Fans queries. I think Elvis valued his Privacy, like most of us do. He wouldnt be pleased with some of the Stuff thats been spoken about him. In the Doco "All the Kings Men" some of the Memphis Mafia revealed really personal stuff they didnt need to reveal to the fans & public! Even Priscilla in her book, I was shocked she revealed things that were between husband & wife, some of the details would have been hurtful to Lisa Marie. You "dont" reveal that stuff. Sure Elvis was human, made mistakes but you dont have to reveal Certain things that should be "kept" Private, in confidence... I'd feel Betrayed big time, if a trusted friend or partner revealed that personal stuff. I saw interview a few years back & Lisa Marie expressed her great Anger & why she wanted nothing to do with some of the Memphis Mafia because of what they revealed about her Father. They Besmirched his character.... I understand now why she felt that way after seeing some of those documentaries. I thought they were going to sit round talking about good positive memories but I was so disappointed in most of it. I think Billy was there in parts but he seemed very" uncomfortable "with some of what was said about his Cousin, he quiet/reserved. I felt sorry for him listening to them say awful things! Anyway glad you guys keep it Positive & even though there may have been hard times, you still keep it dignified & respectful to his Memory!👍🙂
Let's not take for granted everything they say, one example among other ones: according to Red West Priscilla didn't have any affair with her dance teacher.
Sandy I have to agree with you about what Priscilla revealed about her and Elvis private moments. I didn’t like it. I feel like she came across as “I’ll show him, I’m a womsn scorned.” I think she regretted it. Telling all. This movie about Priscilla is going to tell allot more.
You all make me laugh! I love your stories. I had a few questions. Was Gladys and Vernon working at the time Elvis was working as an electrician, and if so what were their jobs? Did Elvis really know or spend any time with his grandfather? When you moved to Memphis, do you know what the first job's your dad and Vernon got? Thx guys!
Great video as always. Im sure as difficult as it could be worki g for Elvis it was just as wo derful doing so. He was an amazing man. Love him till eternity
Y’all sure were full of yourselves tonight! 🤣😂🤣😂. HILARIOUS and Very informative too! Let’s do more late nights!! LOL. 🙋♀️. Jo, my momma always said the same thing about bad dreams, “don’t tell them until after you eat your breakfast!” LOL. I never figured out why but always told my kids the same thing! 🤷♀️. Love passing down family traditions even if they are crazy! Love y’all and already got our bags packed for the Meet & Greet! Yaaayyyy!! TCB ⚡️🕺🏻 👑.
@@nancyshank4085 ~ Hey Nancy, good to see you too! I’m well, thanks for asking. ❤️ Hope all is good with you. Sure do miss all our friends on Ashley’s Channel. My best to you my friend! 😊
@@myelvischannel1992~ Hello my U.K. Friend. Nice to hear from you. We are all well, hope your wife 💅🏻, son & all are well too! Did you get to make your trip to the U.S. this spring? Take care and keep TCB ⚡️🕺🏻👑
QUESTION: How competitive was the Memphis Mafia in trying to get close to Elvis? They were his friends but also his employees. We always hear that there was a "pecking order." You know, everyone was "jockeying" for position. For example, who was going to sit next to Elvis or who was going to go somewhere with Elvis. Were they a just a group of "yes men." For example, if Elvis laughed, they would laugh, even if it wasn't funny. Or, were they free to give their honest opinion if they liked or didn't like something? Make sense? I'm not sure how welll I worded this. Thank you.
Billy and Jo, y'all seem so nice and fun. I really enjoy your videos and they are like therapy for me. Thank You So Much for making them. See, I was 8 years old when Elvis passed away. My mom knew I Loved him and after school that day she told me the news knowing I was gonna be upset. I cried all night and she comforted me. Just wanted to tell you my story of it and to let you two know how much you are appreciated. Billy, I have a question, I heard on another Elvis podcast that after Elvis married Priscilla he went to see Ann Margaret in Vegas and went into her dressing room and confessed his unconditional love for her and then he asked her to get back with him. They said in the video that you were with him and heard and saw the whole ordeal. She was married at the time also. Please let me know did that happen and is there any truth to that story? Thank Y'all again
I never knew elvis raised funds for pearl harbor Memorial. I live in the big island but I heard he had been here if I remember right to shoot a portion of a movie. I was curious if he was on kona side or hilo side. I live hilo side. I have a friend (who is also a utuber) who LOVES herself some elvis she has what she calls her shelvis's where she keeps all her elvis stuff proudly presented! My fav elvis song by far is all shook up. U guys were what my husband called his best friends his inner circle.
Read Ed Parker's book about Elvis. Ed was Hawaiian and he talks a lot about Elvis being interested in their culture. I recall both Kona and Hilo being mentioned but but not the details.
Thank you Billy, Jo and Danielle for all your videos, we’ve got a lot of chance you’re still with us ❤❤ I would like to know if Elvis did surgery : nose, etc... And if you have read the book "Elvis and me" written by Priscilla, what do you think of it, and did she always tell the truth ? I hope you will answer to my questions 💕
They don't say much negative about Priscilla for some reason. According to many, her book is more fiction than fact. Read the well-researched book "Child Bride" by Suzanne Finstad. It's an eye-opener.
Billy and Jo,I really enjoy these videos! Question: Did Elvis want to spend his time with you all a lot? Did he like being alone after his performances? Great job Danielle enjoyed this one so much 😂❤
QUESTION: What was it like going from living at Graceland and traveling the country and experiencing a luxurious lifestyle before Elvis died, to living a more traditional life away from Graceland after he died? You guys are awesome!
Are you aware of, or have you read, the recent researched book Destined To Die Young (2021), by Sally Hoedel an investigative journalist? She was concerned that Elvis wasn’t being remembered properly especially for his prescription drug use. Billy is quoted in it.
I've been over writing my heart out on the MMK page and here this episode comes up! Like Cash sang, Sunday Morning Coming Down, but with y'all its Sunday Morning Coming Up! Y'all are a treat in this tasteless world! I come from 4 generations of Masons, and 2 who were also Shriners. I've never "had time" to explore this world, maybe one day I will. Who knows? I've got to start ordering stuff signed for the walls here. Y'all deserve a place in every Elvis Fan's home! MANY THANKS and MUCH APPRECIATION ALWAYS! Let us know how we can get these items ordered (if you know how to get orders done on the MMK side, let me know). Respect and Love to All! 😀✌️🤟
Great video again. Can't believe I'll be meeting you in two weeks. I've been to arizona memorial and it was the most moving war memorial ever.I didn't know then that Elvis had donated and often think now if that made it even more touching.
Like you,I went to the Pearl Harbor Memorial and had no clue that Elvis raised money for it, or that there had been a special plaque in his name on the wall at one time.This was in 1984, Elvis name wasn't even mentioned. That breaks my heart! It was very moving to be there as it was, but like you I don't know what my feelings would have been if I'd known the Elvis history connection.
Elvis had such an eye for color. Priscilla talks about Elvis liking her with black hair and he was so right! He paid attention too details. That probably is why he was the best at what he did!What an ear he had for music! He was unique!Nobody came close to him!!Thank you all so much for sharing your memories about him❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Billy, I just saw a video where a note is shown that was supposedly found by Joe Esposito August 16. It was supposedly written by Elvis and found near him that sad day. It looked like the note started, Dear Billy. Since you are one of the only 3 people I believe when it comes to Elvis, I am wondering if there is any truth about that note. I saved the name of the person who has that video on here if you decide to see it if you want. Thank You.
Billy l heard that Anita had passed away a few weeks ago’! Good you verify this for us ! l thought she was such a lovely and gracious lady, it’s such a shame loosing all our friends from yesteryear but that’s life ‘ l really appreciate y’all you are so kind to devote your time and memories of EP to the fan’s Blessings to you all 🙏💜❤️🙏💜🌺🇺🇸🙏
The question regarding a time capsule (before 12:31), there is one. There's an interview, on TH-cam, with an archivist. She spoke of a certain drawer in the kitchen, to which Lisa wrote her name and isn't visible from the visitor viewing area. You will have to view that to see if it was visible for video. Enjoy the content,as I enjoy y'all. Just like drawer, I do appreciate the times in when that privacy is closed for y'all and him.
Question that i have not heard mentioned before or maybe i missed this on Elvis .Elvis was the tough guy in the movies but can evil really look after himself in a street fight situation without red sonny west there to protect him has Elvis been in a fight situation that the fans don't know about if so what was the out come. And thanks Billy jo for answering our questions
what size was the trailer that Joe and Billy lived in,what ultimately happened to the trailer after they moved out and are there still any of the trailers at Graceland today? I was at Graceland in the mid 80's and although i was around 10 it seems like there was at least one on the property then. We met Uncle Vester there and my dad talked to him for about a half hour.I also think Billy was there then.
I just left a question and hit accidentally hit send. I wanted to add that Danielle, you also seem so nice and fun and you are a wonderful addition to the videos. Don't you ever stop doing these videos as I get a thrill everytime I look at my phone and Y'all have put out another video. I also wanted to tell Billy that Him, Lamar, and Sonny were my favorite Memphis Mafia members. Guess who my favorite has always been, well you guessed it, it has always been Billy Smith. You just seem so Sincere and can have fun at the same time, Very Cool trait, Y'all Take Care PS: Danielle if you don't ask my question on air I will still Love you the same, LOL TCB FOR LIFE
I am curious if Billy still works for the railroad. If so, where does he get the energy. I ask because I am still working at almost 70, and it is hard at this age.
There’s A Video With Linda Thompson In An Interview, Where Linda Is Saying Elvis Had A Woman Waiting For Him I Don’t Know What Location, I Can’t Remember But He Wanted Linda To Fly Back To Memphis ! In The Interview Linda Thompson Said She Knew Then She And Elvis Wes Over ! She Went Back To Memphis And Packed Up ! She Didn’t Leave Him He Wanted Her To Leave !
Thanks Elvis family! Love you! You gave great memories of our dear Elvis! Want to ask you a question. I read from Shirley Dieu´s notes he liked to listen to Ann Murray and Freddy Fender!!! Do you recall thic? Greetings and blessings from Peru!
I wanted to say thank you to Billy and Jo Smith for sharing your Elvis memories with us all. It can’t be easy to discuss / relive especially since Elvis was kin.

Yep, "he gave so much." That was this incredible man in a nutshell.
Thank you to the Smith family for answering people's questions. They are truly the nicest folk.
Danielle you're really good at wording the questions that people ask. I'm sure you get all kinds of questions and you're good at condensing them. You do a good job
I've personally known the Elvis Presley family for many years and his legacy continues through his grandchildren.
You guys are the best. i'm watching and laughing out loud. Elvis would've been so glad that you keep his true memory alive.
Elvis was an a incredible human being, I am so thankful you all have shared so much with us, thank you 😊❤
👍
Youre delusional. Grow up you hag
awesome.God bless everyone.
The World needed Elvis for the next 25 years.
I’m with you Jo, horrible with names but good with faces.
I’ve watched the three of you for a long time and appreciate all that you share. How do I submit a question. If it’s here then I’d like to know if Elvis got more nervous for interviews than live shows or was he as relaxed as he seemed.
Billy, you are too funny!😂
Billy you and Jo are terrific! I love learning more about Elvis. I found oud through genealogy that he's my 7th cousin. You have no idea how proud it makes me feel to know that. I can't learn about him enough!! Bless you so much for sharing him with us fans. Billy, I have a feeling Elvis loved you far more than any of the guys. You were like his little brother. Especially since he took you to the governor's party.
I loved him too so very much and still do and will forever!
Thank you so much for sharing your memories of the greatest entertainer in our lifetime! I'm sure it's not easy for you since his life was cut short so suddenly. By the way Billy, thanks for telling us you joined the Masons. My Dad was a 50 year member, inactive for several of those years, but proud to receive his 50 year award. Love watching you talk about your cousin!
My dad was a 50 year Mason. He also was unactive for many years.
There will never ever be another Elvis Presley. He was was always afraid his fans would forget him, but he is more popular today then he was when he left the building in 1977. You can still feel the charisma through his videos today.i still listen to his music often.would Billy and Jo still live behind Graceland if he was alive today?
Most likely

Ask Jo and Billy about the pick pocket Elvis worried about when y’all went to the show Elvis was worried the guy would pick his pocket and find his little box of pills so he gave them to Marty Lacker to hold. Marty told the story in a video.
Sam Bell, a childhood friend of Elvis, stated that Elvis sang "I'll Fly Away" as a young child.

Its great to see an original memphis mafia member and cousin sctual family of elvis .thank you
Love y’all, and your stories about Elvis.
Billy and Jo,I really enjoy these videos! Question: Did Elvis want to spend his time with you all a lot? Did he like being alone after his performances? Great job Danielle enjoyed this one so much 😂❤
QUESTION: What was it like going from living at Graceland and traveling the country and experiencing a luxurious lifestyle before Elvis died, to living a more traditional life away from Graceland after he died? You guys are awesome!
Like night and day!
What was Elvis's favorite? What was Elvis's favorite thing to do in his relaxing days? What did he like to do
Are you aware of, or have you read, the recent researched book Destined To Die Young (2021), by Sally Hoedel an investigative journalist? She was concerned that Elvis wasn’t being remembered properly especially for his prescription drug use. Billy is quoted in it.
I've been over writing my heart out on the MMK page and here this episode comes up! Like Cash sang, Sunday Morning Coming Down, but with y'all its Sunday Morning Coming Up! Y'all are a treat in this tasteless world! I come from 4 generations of Masons, and 2 who were also Shriners. I've never "had time" to explore this world, maybe one day I will. Who knows? I've got to start ordering stuff signed for the walls here. Y'all deserve a place in every Elvis Fan's home! MANY THANKS and MUCH APPRECIATION ALWAYS! Let us know how we can get these items ordered (if you know how to get orders done on the MMK side, let me know). Respect and Love to All! 😀✌️🤟
Great video again. Can't believe I'll be meeting you in two weeks. I've been to arizona memorial and it was the most moving war memorial ever.I didn't know then that Elvis had donated and often think now if that made it even more touching.
Like you,I went to the Pearl Harbor Memorial and had no clue that Elvis raised money for it, or that there had been a special plaque in his name on the wall at one time.This was in 1984, Elvis name wasn't even mentioned. That breaks my heart! It was very moving to be there as it was, but like you I don't know what my feelings would have been if I'd known the Elvis history connection.
Elvis had such an eye for color. Priscilla talks about Elvis liking her with black hair and he was so right! He paid attention too details. That probably is why he was the best at what he did!What an ear he had for music! He was unique!Nobody came close to him!!Thank you all so much for sharing your memories about him❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love your channel and MMK. I wish I could meet you guys.
Hello. Question. If Elvis stayed in his room a lot in the final years, when did he see, played etc with Lisa?
Y'all are always great! Thanks for Elvis Fans Matter ❤ 🤍🌟☺️
Billy, I just saw a video where a note is shown that was supposedly found by Joe Esposito August 16. It was supposedly written by Elvis and found near him that sad day. It looked like the note started, Dear Billy. Since you are one of the only 3 people I believe when it comes to Elvis, I am wondering if there is any truth about that note. I saved the name of the person who has that video on here if you decide to see it if you want. Thank You.
Elvis was murdered.
That’s how I am Jo, I don’t forget a face. Usually if I could see a face I can remember the name. But I have a hard time if I can’t see the face.
Awesome. Keep the questions going. We’re listening. Canada
A lot of children looked for the Easter bunny. We looked under the side of the house but never understood it. We never caught him though.
Billy l heard that Anita had passed away a few weeks ago’! Good you verify this for us ! l thought she was such a lovely and gracious lady, it’s such a shame loosing all our friends from yesteryear but that’s life ‘ l really appreciate y’all you are so kind to devote your time and memories of EP to the fan’s Blessings to you all 🙏💜❤️🙏💜🌺🇺🇸🙏
Anita Wood / and that was could you verify/ not good 😂
@@pattynuzzello9035 She was a wonderful person and she will be missed!
Love their stories
Hi. How were Elvis’ jumpsuits cleaned after a concert?
Oooh so so funny. I really enjoyed this 😂
That’s so strange, up here in Canada when I was a child in the 1980s, we only had channels 3,5 and 13 as well
The question regarding a time capsule (before 12:31), there is one. There's an interview, on TH-cam, with an archivist. She spoke of a certain drawer in the kitchen, to which Lisa wrote her name and isn't visible from the visitor viewing area. You will have to view that to see if it was visible for video. Enjoy the content,as I enjoy y'all. Just like drawer, I do appreciate the times in when that privacy is closed for y'all and him.
Love your family chats xxx
Billy what year did you start working for Elvis?
Was wandering did Elvis ever go vote during presidential polls?
No. He was not a registered voter. He didn't get into politics.
I can see why elvis loved having Billy around 😂
If you had to do it all again, would you have done anything different? If you could talk to Elvis one last time what would you say to him?
I enjoyed this, It was really funny!
Question that i have not heard mentioned before or maybe i missed this on Elvis .Elvis was the tough guy in the movies but can evil really look after himself in a street fight situation without red sonny west there to protect him has Elvis been in a fight situation that the fans don't know about if so what was the out come. And thanks Billy jo for answering our questions
Great show
what size was the trailer that Joe and Billy lived in,what ultimately happened to the trailer after they moved out and are there still any of the trailers at Graceland today? I was at Graceland in the mid 80's and although i was around 10 it seems like there was at least one on the property then. We met Uncle Vester there and my dad talked to him for about a half hour.I also think Billy was there then.
👏👏👏👏👏🦅⚡🦅😎👍
I just left a question and hit accidentally hit send. I wanted to add that Danielle, you also seem so nice and fun and you are a wonderful addition to the videos. Don't you ever stop doing these videos as I get a thrill everytime I look at my phone and Y'all have put out another video.
I also wanted to tell Billy that Him, Lamar, and Sonny were my favorite Memphis Mafia members.
Guess who my favorite has always been, well you guessed it, it has always been Billy Smith. You just seem so Sincere and can have fun at the same time, Very Cool trait,
Y'all Take Care
PS: Danielle if you don't ask my question on air I will still Love you the same, LOL
TCB FOR LIFE
I am curious if Billy still works for the railroad. If so, where does he get the energy. I ask because I am still working at almost 70, and it is hard at this age.
ELVIS FANS MATTER ❣️❣️
What a interesting video
Do You Think Elvis And Linda Thompson Would Still Be Together If She Hadn’t Left? Thanks Joanne From Georgia
There’s A Video With Linda Thompson In An Interview, Where Linda Is Saying Elvis Had A Woman Waiting For Him I Don’t Know What Location, I Can’t Remember But He Wanted Linda To Fly Back To Memphis ! In The Interview Linda Thompson Said She Knew Then She And Elvis Wes Over ! She Went Back To Memphis And Packed Up ! She Didn’t Leave Him He Wanted Her To Leave !
He Left Her !
@@tracie5245 Correct Linda Thompson Did Not Leave ! That Was Elvis’s Choice !
Thanks Elvis family! Love you! You gave great memories of our dear Elvis! Want to ask you a question. I read from Shirley Dieu´s notes he liked to listen to Ann Murray and Freddy Fender!!! Do you recall thic? Greetings and blessings from Peru!
