This man was tired, but still gave us all what he got! It's hard to see him strugle. But in 1976-1977 he was still king and ALWAYS will be. TCB forever! I just whised he could took some rest⚡️⚡️🥲💙
What on Earth were they thinking even having this in Elvis’ concerts past 72’? Clearly he was bored of singing the same old basic 50s medleys he’d been signing for 2 decades straight. Elvis didn’t want to disappoint his fans by not giving these songs, though I can’t say I blame him for singing it like this
i was at this concert. he was definitely under the influence. guess what, not a single person in that sold out concert hall cared other than the critics. he was having fun. we were having fun. he enjoyed it. we enjoyed it. so it wasn't prime for recording and releasing, didn't/doesn't matter. he gave us what we came for, himself having a good time. find fault in that, i dare ya.
@@haro82 most definitely N O T bored. messed up? yes. tired? hell yes. bored? absofrigginlutely not. he had a blast. i was there. we had a blast watching him. other than the critics no one left the Summit disappointed.
@rockzhard2009 don't get me wrong, I'd kill to be able to go back in time to see ANY Elvis show. Before my time unfortunately, was just saying this one wasn't on par with what he was capable of earlier.
So frustrating to hear the greatest singer be so bored with his songs. After Aloha, he could have benched them oldies . Fast just to get it over with. He had lost interest in himself.
@waynedoyle5584 I wish he didn't feel he had to do the same songs over and over again. He had so many great songs that would have been even better as his voice got richer and more powerful. He was a man that needed challenges. Still unequaled talent to this day.
you are sooo right .....but ....fame talked over challenge....quick story ...ronnie tutt his drummer agreed with us and when asked when things became bad from a music point of view he stated that i think the 3 or 2nd to last vegas season we opened with new songs and it was GREAT and the crowd loved it too ... but after the show ....when he went to vist elvis to celebrate this new way of doing things ....elvis head was down and and said " yeah it was good but they didn,t respond like when we did the hits so let,s stick to that tomorrow night " ....ronnie heart was broken because he knew it was not going to get better but worse ...and you know what sadly happened soon afterwards....thank you for reply , i just wish elvis took yours and ronnie advice @@BjManberries
My understanding is that Dr Nick did not come along for this tour like he normally would. Possibly money reasons but I can't remember. Dr Nick would control (well, some control at least) and balance out the cocktail of pills Elvis was on throughout a tour. This perfomance here is the result of his absence. After this gig they went straight to Dr Nick and begged him to come back on board. It is easily the worst concert he ever did (that I've heard anyway) and it's so depressing it may actually be even more depressing than seeing Elvis singing Old Macdonald or that song to a bull called Dominic. Fast forward to December 1976 and he puts on some of the best gigs he's put on in years.
That's a scary thought brother I like Motley crew but Vince Neil is not good live in concert believe me my brother let's keep it up rocking with Elvis fraternity God bless you my brother
Ranks among his worst shows... Elvis was on so many downers he was barely able to perform... very sad and a huge disappointment to those fans who had to pay to see that train wreck.
i was at this concert. 16 years old. i was in no way, shape, form or fashion disappointed. Elvis was having a blast during this show. HE had fun, and i can testify everyone there had fun.
@@antonio368 yes sir you're right my brother sometimes it makes you wonder don't it May the King live on forever Elvis Presley with all my love Elvis Antonio thanks a lot brother keep it up
It doesn’t sound terrible … he’s just not singing it like he usually would He was fed up , bored , tired and on opioids during this era so this will make him sluggish and not give it 100%
@@canalcksofficial1745 I’ve heard people wonder why he didn’t just load up on uppers for these shows. Unfortunately, people severely addicted to Barbituates, tranquilizers and painkillers need the drugs in their system to function at all. So Elvis had no choice but to take those drugs. I’m sure he was on uppers as well, but when you take uppers and downers together you’re basically a wide awake drunk. You’re walking and talking, just not very well, as evidenced here.

ELVIS tired and sick of many things but still carrying on, beautiful SOUL😍🕺🥇
elvis the king

It was similar with "Hound Dog"
2 decades straight? More like 7 years & he could've rotated which oldies to include lol
@@Elvis2TheMax
He very rarely took out his classic medleys. I’ve only listened to a handful that haven’t got the main ones in.
@@MichaelJ44 Not sure how you interpreted my comment, it wasn't a rebuttal lol
Jailhouse Rock was rarely performed until 1976 and was only a mainstay in the setlist from October ‘76 onwards
Huge huge fan of Elvis, but this just doesn’t cut it for me unfortunately, he seems to be struggling :/ he needed rest from those concerts man..
Definitely a combo of tiredness, boredom, and opiods.

Fast just to get it over with...well said and we would be the same if we had to do the same old thing EVERYDAY

And still rocks like hell in 1976-1977⚡️⚡️⚡️💙
You cannot even hear the entirety of the tracks. So monotone.
Sounds more like Vince Neal trying to sing Jail House Rock..
I don't know how Vince Neal tried to sing this song, but the fact is Elvis was a shadow of himself at the time
That's a scary thought brother I like Motley crew but Vince Neil is not good live in concert believe me my brother let's keep it up rocking with Elvis fraternity God bless you my brother
I've liked Elvis since I was a young man it seems like he was offbeat

This was atleast fun and somewhat different but his easiest worse concert
just curious, where you there?
Listen real good this is not Elvis this guy is single his nose God bless
Singing nasally that's why I don't think this is Elvis
@@jeffmarlow125 You know, it depends who sings the bootleg "Houston, We Have A Problem"
@@antonio368 yes sir you're right my brother sometimes it makes you wonder don't it May the King live on forever Elvis Presley with all my love Elvis Antonio thanks a lot brother keep it up
Thank you and Antonio God bless you and let's keep rocking with Elvis
What happend to his voice, terrible it sounds
Not really
He' s singing high voice!
It doesn’t sound terrible … he’s just not singing it like he usually would
He was fed up , bored , tired and on opioids during this era so this will make him sluggish and not give it 100%
@@JakeHughes-zq5cvno, for the reasons you mention…it sounds terrible
@@tanyaandelvis2698 do you wanna give it a go then? Because I’m sure you can do it 💀
He needed another shot of Dilaudid. That would have fixed everything.
A terrible show. He was not on form
Bro this feels like a shit post, Elvis made the first shit post.
He was far from his best shape at the time. That period of time from July to September felt like this.
I’m aware.
Completely full of barbiturates and antidepressants, high and a little dizzy with a choked voice
