    He looked great here, like himself. Only 8 months later he would pass. This tells me he could have turned things around. I am so grateful to this man for all the joy and happiness he brought to me through his concert films and music. I wish that he could of continued on this path…to stay in shape, take the time off he desperately needed to care of himself. Of all people, he deserved happiness, fulfillment health and love. Simply the greatest.

    And that's the way it's done. God made the world in 7 days. On the 8th day, he made Elvis. This man is not a result of mere genetics. God did this.
    Before Elvis, there was nothing. After Elvis, there is still nothing like him.

    It is so sad that he had so many health issues that he suffered with and limited him in certain ways but one thing that was never limited was his beautiful voice.
    He was amazing beyond words and will always be remembered as the greatest performer of all time and as the beautiful big hearted, generous caring person he was

    I had never believed it when my professor in college, both a musicologist and professional symphony musician, himself, told me that he viewed Elvis Presley to be the greatest overall singer of all time. "Why?," "What the hell?," so many of us said? With him first going on to ask what's Frank Sinatra's greatest and/or signature song? "My Way," someone eventually said and then the professor proceeded to show us various polls from over the years which listed Sinatra as the greatest singer ever. Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin were also on top of some, and Elvis, too, on a few. But the point of the exercise was to simply show us Sinatra was considered by many, though it's subjective, to be the greatest.
    The class then listened to Sinatra's "My Way," and then Elvis' version, back to back. With the room being roughly split as to whose version was better, "which proved what I thought?" But then the professor showed us Elvis rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from the Elvis 1968 Comeback Special. With the point ultimately being that regardless of whose version of 'My Way" you preferred, Elvis was right there, totally at home playing in Sinatra's backyard for lack of better parlance.
    But as to Sinatra playing in Elvis' backyard, he said, it couldn't be done, as he said "[i]magine Sinatra, (who he totally loved) trying to do that rock number?" Then going on to say that he had found no singer who had ever sang more genres, more majestically, than Elvis, & he challenged us to find out for ourselves by looking at his full catalogue of Rock, Pop, Soul, Country, Ballads, Gospel and more.
    And, when done, I admit I became a convert who was so, so doubtful, at first, I can't even begin to tell you. But from rocking out to 'Trying to Get to You' from that Elvis 1968 Comeback Special, to singing about the dream of humanity coming together with "If I Can Dream," from the same show, I believe you will see what I mean. Elvis even had a voice that could be operatic if you go and listen to 'Hurt' and his version of "You'll Never Walk Alone" will tell you why he has also sold more gospel records than anyone, as well as just tons more, overall. But, with pop and 'Such A Night' to a ballad such as 'They Remind Me Too Much of You,' he did it all, and so, so damn well. While for soul, check out 'Long Black Limousine' or 'You're Wearin' That Loved on Look' which is a bit of another number. Because as Elvis' one album cover says, there's 'Something for Everybody.'
    Also, and if ultimately you don't think Elvis is the best, that's totally cool as there really is something for everyone!;-) Great channel and I wish you the best!!! ~ Christopher Tyler
    P.S. Those recommendations are only, quite literally, the beginning!

      What a fantastic post. Your professor was a wise man. There are so many examples of Elvis' magnificent vocals from the rock of Big Hunk of Love and Jailhouse Rock to the beauty of Any Day Now or even a short movie song like In My Way to the power of How Great Thou Art (live) and right at the end with Unchained Melody.

    Phenomenal. I think I like the photo gallery from the show over the footage from the concert. The sound on this cut sounds better than the previous "footage version." Is there a reason for that or is that just in my mind? Once again, from Yinzer that was there the photos and memoribilia from the show like the ricket stubs and puctures of the very first vinyl boot of the performance, was quite a hift for this old fan. ❤
