Elvis Presley was the most important and influential artist of the twentieth century. His multi-racial and genre-defying music inspired a generation and played a part in the ongoing struggle for civil rights.
Long accepted as the greatest hit-maker and singles artist in popular music, this channel invites the listener to reconsider Elvis' work as an album artist by re-presenting his LPs in a revised and more logical fashion, accompanied by simple mood-setting videos.
Music is always best appreciated when heard in context: the "sleeve notes" that accompany the projects attempt to place each album in its relevant time, that the recordings of this great musician may be better understood and enjoyed.

Elvis Presley: The Rainmaker screentest
Просмотров 14 тыс.7 лет назад
In March 1956, Elvis flew to Hollywood for a screentest. He memorised and performed a scene from "The Rainmaker", which was about to start filming. Elvis played the part of Jim Curry, a headstrong young man, and all that remains of his test are a few black and white photographs, which are here overlaid on the same scene from the finished movie, where the part is played by Earl Holliman who won ...
When Alice Cooper, Liza Minelli, Linda Lovelace and Chubby Checker met Elvis

During the 1970s, when superstars visited Las Vegas, they always made a point of attending the best show in town: Elvis Presley at the Hilton Hotel. And after each gig, Elvis would invite a selection of celebrities from all fields to visit him in his penthouse suite, which sometimes made for fascinatingly electic meetings. One of the best post-gig stories comes from the summer of 1972* when Ali...

The death of Leonard Cohen was reported in the news this week, always accompanied by the phrase, "the composer of 'Hallelujah'" to enlighten the many who would simply have no idea who this man was. Cohen was a creative soul of rare wit and intelligence who had survived on the fringes of mass fame for almost half a century before the aforementioned song achieved global success on the back of tal...
Elvis Presley: An American Trilogy
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.7 лет назад
As far as can be ascertained, Elvis Presley never voted, and his personal politics remained exactly that. But there's little doubt that Elvis loved his country and loved all the greatness to which his country aspired. There were times too when the dark side of America appalled him: he was, for instance, horrified not only at the death of Martin Luther King but also that it happened in his home ...

Elvis Presley: How Great Thou Art (the re-union)
Просмотров 1 млн8 лет назад
To say that Elvis Presley loved Gospel music would be an understatement. It was by far his favourite musical genre and the three personal Grammy awards he received during his lifetime were for recordings in this field. From the summer of 1956 until the summer of 1977, whenever he stepped on stage, he did so accompanied by at least one Gospel harmony group; that's how highly he valued the Gospel...
Elvis Presley: the Jaycee's Speech 1971
Просмотров 23 тыс.8 лет назад
On 16th January 1971, Elvis Presley did something very unusual: he gave a speech. He had received a prestigious award as one of the Jaycee's Ten Outstanding Young Men of the Year and offered a moving one minute precis of his approach to life, using an old Roy Hamilton hit, "Without A Song", as his theme. It was almost made up on the spot, and there are occasional stumbles, but this may be the m...

Every public moment of this man’s life should have been recorded for posterity. It’s hardly likely the world will experience another like Elvis.
I never really got into Elvis he was my sisters Era but that is one good looking man and a voice unreal !!!!
You can’t get better - Elvis, and this hymn! How beautiful!
Najgorsi ludzie.byli ci, którzy najpierw Ciebie skrzywdzili, a później wmawiali innym że to Ty skrzywdziles ich, czyniles dobro nie oczekiwales, że ludzie beda Ci usuwac kamienie z drogi, ale nie myslales, ze Ci je beda rzucac na droge !!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Zmija umiera od swojego jadu, trzeba jej dac troche czasu !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a voice. We'll never see the likes of him again.
there wil never be another that will ever sing this song like Elvis did ❤❤❤❤
The only version, other than Elvis', that I actually enjoy. He did his own thing but did it justice -- just as gritty and hard-hitting as the original, yet in a completely different style. I've been looking for this for a while; thank you for posting.
Elvis' influence on popular music is immutable. The man made such a mark on popular music that the reverberations of his influence on the genre are still felt today. He is still referenced, still talked about, still inspiring musicians. It is insane to think about his legacy, nearly 80 years after the iconic era of his music in the 1950s. Without Elvia, I don't know if many of the Delta Blues singers that he loved and venerated would be known today. Say what you want about his artistry, but the man brought attention to many artists who would have been forgotten and lost to time.
Hawaii, 1960😃❤️
wish i fly on the wall for that night
No i super....🎸🎶
I cover this song.
Praise The Lord
I lost a friend that looked like Elvis named flowers Duran of McAllen and the guy who killed him is out on the land and running like a lamb cause he was Doctor and was worth a lot clams.
We love you Elvis RIP my love to you 💋🎄🎄🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🎄🌹🌹🌹🌷😆
God has left us many miracles on earth to enjoy. One of them was and will forever remain ELVIS

So beautiful and amazing!
Goosebumps....
GREATEST VOICE EVER BLESS YOU ELVIS ❤🙏🙏🙏
