    I was driving truck when he passed away, going from Florida to Pennsylvania, my radio filled with E.A.Presley, climbing the mountains shifting gears , listening to one of the greatest singers that had ever lived, I will never forget that trip, my oldest son was born just days before Elvis passed. RIP Mr Presley. Thank you for all the great music.

      Sadly he was only lent to us for a short while. 😢
      I knew I would never see him live, as I live in U.K. so I followed our own singers here.
      Then Gordon Hendricks won top Elvis award in Graceland 2017. I went to see Gordon's tribute act here, and now I am living the Elvis dream right here.

    Elvis is the greatest, I would like to add if your a true Elvis fan you realize that Elvis gave a 100 % for His fans. I have seen footage of Elvis saying so and Elvis remembering the price of a concert ticket and praying to give the fans the best show even sick with the flu. Elvis many times at Graceland would walk down to the gate and visit with the fans. One more point you only realize how talented this Man was if you dig deep into His music, Elvis was held back by His success so if you dig deep into His music such as His Gospel and the few more modern songs you will realize His talent.

    I have to tell this story...I am 49 now and when I was around 4 years old he was in Shreveport, La and My precious Aunt Patty took care of him at the Sheridan Hotel. He thanked her for being good to him and asked her no limit to money if there was anything she needed, she told him that her niece was his biggest fan, Me.....He told her to get me there and he made them hold the plane and everything so my mamma could try and get me there to meet Elvis...We did not make it....What matters to me is that he cared...I am the only woman who ever stood Elvis up....I love you Elvis....You are such a blessing

      My Uncle, and my wife’s cousin both knew Elvis while he was in the Military. Elvis was waiting in line to use the phone while my Uncle was talking to his girlfriend. Elvis got on the phone and talked to her. Wife’s cousin was invited to a private party at his home in Germany. Elvis told him to stop into see him if he was in Memphis. He stopped a few years later at Graceland, and was invited to hang out for the day. Elvis Presley was a good and decent man.

    I was a young child when I could tell my mother loved Elvis. I grew up loving his music and performances too just like Mom. In those days, I had to be asleep by 9pm, but I clearly remember her sobbing from my bedroom as she watched the nightly news-10pm- and heard of his passing. Im pushing 57 y/o now, but can tell you that despite his 'issues', there will never ever be another King. Now he rests with his mother and God Speed to Lisa Marie.

    One of the greatest covers of a Gordon Lightfoot song ever. Shows how many artists truly admired and loved the craft of one of the past century's greatest singers and songwriters. Any artist who performed Lightfoot did it out of respect and admiration for his artistry. Gordon and Elvis you are both greatly missed by everyone who has been touched by your music. I would bet the great James Burton is playing guitar on this too.

    I've loved Elvis for decades. Met him at "The Louisiana Hayride" in '54/55, I grew up with him. Attended 15+ concerts in my day. He got so familiar with me being at the Hayride every Saturday until '56, the last time he did the show, Dec. '56, that a few of his shows in TX. he would say his #1 Fan was always there and say my name and he'd say stand up sweetheart. I received several scarves and was kissed double kisses with those Luscious lips of his many, many times. We became social friends for years, then I enrolled at LSU in Baton Rouge. Many times he would drive to see me and stay in my apartment. I'll leave my private story there. I will LOVE HIM forevermore. Rest in Eternal Pease my Love now that Lisa Marie is there with you forever. You'll live in my heart forever. 💋💋💜💔💔🖤🙏✝🙏❤❤❤

The only known soundcheck is a day before the rehearsal concert for the Aloha, that he actually did a line check. This video is not from a soundcheck, as mentioned by Georgia, right after the Aloha concert was over, the crowd left the arena, and Elvis came back to record a few songs that would be used on the TV Special for the US broadcast. This was after the show, around 3am. But anyways, it's not the definitive version as he also recorded this one in the studio in 1971.
