What a wonderful wonderful man- complimented that sweet little girl by saying "Isn't she pretty".... LORDY what a compliment of a lifetime-from ELVIS!!!
In this clip he doesn't look as FAT as many would lead you to believe and TV cameras usually add a few lbs. He's definitely not 260 lbs. I know what 260 lbs looks like. As the camera moves out and away you see a side view of Elvis -- is he heavy? Yeah -- big. Like a guy who's over 6'. Is he Fat Albert? Jackie Gleason? No.
So sad to see Elvis 6 weeeks before he died. He was so obviously ill.....damn you Elvis! You were the King, you just had to say " I'll stop for a year and get a treatment!" and you would still be with us.....nobody would had the nerve to say no to you.....you were the BOSS
If there is anyone posting who has done more for ppl then let them say something and if not shutup cause you you are nothing like this man he is the best man you will find.
Love him... he always wanted to give. He tells his handlers , do we have something we can give to the little girl. ? Love you Elvis, Prais God, see you in Glory !
The little girl is, Monique Brave of the Sioux Indian Tribe in Rapid City, Iowa. She presents him with a "Medallion of Life". She still lives in Iowa, is married and is a grandmother.
What a sad video, having been an Elvis devotee since the 1950s seeing this once, fuelled by adrenelin entertainer now fueled by drugs breaks my heart, RIP ELVIS, you were a poor boy who just couldn't handle it.
Shame he looks drunk,on drugs and bloated,so self destructive....I think he knows where he's going,such a shame he was such a kind gentle man ,generous to a fault love to have known him ,bless him
My mother was a huge fan of Elvis, she still is. An amazing man and artist. I think he was a loving, kind and a sweet person. When he died, I was 7 years old and I found my mother crying at the kitchen table. His music and films will stay forever in our hearts.
I was almost 8 years old when Elvis died. I remember me and my family was watching tv, then a news bulletin come on and said Elvis just died. 1977. My sisters were crying and mother was too. I loved his music too.
It's no big deal to me if Elvis is fat (so am I) but he just doesn't look well here. I've got this footage on a bootleg DVD I bought several years ago...
@jdp201eliz - I remember it well. I was a month shy of 10 years old when he died. My mother was in the kitchen peeling potatoes, with a small radio on the window ledge. The radio station was playing all Elvis songs that particular day because they feared the worse. Then, the announcer came on and gave the sad news that Elvis had died. My mother, like millions and millions of other devoted fans around the world, cried like she had just lost her best friend. But Elvis will live forever!
Elvis looks as if he's finished a concert. Is this a break or something or is this prior to the concert? He looks as if he needs a nap or some rest. Too bad he was so driven near the end. At this time, maybe his joy in life was on stage close to his fans and no where else.
Here poor Elvis looks like a bad Elvis impersonator . Vernon Presley and the creepy Colonel Parker were so money hungry they contracted him to do this tour even though he should have been hospitalized for life threatening illnesses at this point. CBS crew were filming some shows for a later TV special and they were taking bets among themselves on whether he'd live another 6 months.
Just watched Lisa Marie on Oprah she said that his friends and family didn't tryto help him because Elvis wouldn't listen and he would disown anyone who tryed telling him what to do.
Le pauvre, il avait tant encore à nous donner. Quel drame.
Là on voit qu'il fait ça par politesse, mais il aimerait qu'on le laisse tranquille. Il est fatigué notre héros. Tout le monde en a tellement profité, surtout cette saloperie de PARKER...
I'm not sure of the date; I remember my Mom / Dad going; then not long after they went to Elvis' concert; his death was across the news headlines.... the name monique brave sounds familiar....
Is it any wonder he died? If it were a pure world he would have lived forever. Look at the awful collection of leeches and hangers-on around him. All of them are culpable in his death. He was so great beyond belief, yet he was surrounded by these bloodsuckers.
I'd love to be that little girl that he kissed. He still looked beautiful. He definatly deserved that award. He did so much for so many. Such an amazing man!
he was a wonderful generous caring human being who was used by all.....I feel so bad watching this video. In my humble opinion you can see the pain in his face.
Sad he was so fat the last time of his life. But anyway its about the mental health more than a physcially here. It was a unstable mental health that caused a physically bad health.
@Provst3n I think you're right, he just didn't care anymore. Elvis was a humble person from the South who lived for ten lives, I guess all the adulation and success trapped him at the same time.
You can hear the audience getting restless....Elvis was frequently late getting on stage in his later appearances.But, this is a nice bit of film, the little Indian girl is probably in her 40`s now!!! Perhaps, same age as the King was here.
I have never seen this before, it was lovely. We all know what a kind, gentle, humble, polite, religious generous person Elvis was, it is so sad to see him this way, I have NEVER heard anyone who knew him say anything other than what a perfect gentleman he was. RIP ELVIS.
oh my!..people just enjoy my vid for what it is.Stop the hating on each other..Its been on y/t here for almost 4 years they are looking for any excuse to take it off believe me..just sayin..have a good day :) marylouise
@marylouise2 I for one think this is a great video. It shows his tender loving side. I especially love the moment with the little Indian girl. That was very special. Thanks again. And ignore those hateful others out there. There ignorance is blessed.
The Presley Estate, according to what I've read, has no intentions of ever releasing ''Elvis In Concert'' on dvd. Apparently, they want to preserve and market Elvis' image only from '56-'73. Even though these 2 shows were obviously not his best, I'd still love to see them released professionally. I have both the Omaha and Rapid City shows, but the sound and picture quality is not that great.
it doesn't take rocket science to see just in this video how worn out and high elvis is in this video he can barley speak.hell or high water pist or not he would have gotten off the pills took time off got his body and energy back in rehab or whatever WOULD work and got back to the healthy elvis.his father could have had legal rights to do that but sounds to me he was to busy worry about the gravy train being his life was in danger he could have gotten power of attorney to admit him.
Not funny or cute! It was a nice gesture on their part & Elvis appreciated it. Everyone here is so critical. What does it matter what he weighed or wore? He was a phenomonal singer and entertainer who gave the world much pleasure and he was also a fine humanitarian. His charities are still taken care of today by his daughter and his estate. Does anything else really matter? I think his health & early death were awful & sad, but I apppreciate the music and contributions he left behind!!
charity is a tool for the super rich to not pay their fair share of taxes,when u make so much money that u cant possibly spend it u must give it away or the gov will take it,lets not pretend that people give away money because they want to,as far as elvis weight i dont really care i liked the guy and his image,its just another story of hollywood success gone south,just another notch in the devils belt.they will all meet there demise when u sin too much and take drugs and alcahol
he gave to charities bc he grew up in poverty and he loved giving. he always paid his taxes. he had no issue with taxes. this is so wrong about Elvis. When he died, he only had a million dollars bc he had given away most of his money.
jsimone1320 Elvis was being given cortisone treatments which cause swelling of the abdomen and face which might have made his head look larger too, but Elvis had a large head to begin with like every.major star..For some reason almost every successful entertainer, actor, and even newscasters have big heads. I think they photograph better.
If Elvis walked down the street a complete unknown, no-one would think that´s a fat guy. He´s big but not fat. The problem is we all compare him to earlier photos and clips. That is unfair for anyone
The only TRUE friend , in my opinion of Elvis was Joe Esposito. All the rest were waiting for their paycheck. That ruined him in the end. Great footage and I hope more "rare" footage pops up in the future. He was the king of music! RIP Elivs
Fascinating footage. And to think he was dead before the end of the year. I think he was taken with the little Native American girl because she reminded him of his own daughter, Lisa Marie. Like most sentimental people, I'm sure he had a soft part in his heart for kids. And I agree with other posters here that even though he's obviously put on some weight here, he's far from obese. Overall, he doesn't look well, though. If only the poor chap would have taken better care of himself. Sigh...
did you know that after his upcomign tour, he was planning on going to hawaii with larry geller and he was going to get clean? stop all the drugs everything. he wanted to be a better dad to lisa marie
@Unbreakable1978 I just read Dr Nick's book, his doctor, Elvis was toxic from all the coritsone shots he was taking for back, neck, and asthma, that caused the bloat, also the paralysed colon he had caused the bloat, Elvis was not fat, look at the rest of him, his legs, arms, etc, all the bloat was mistaken for fat, Elvis had so many ailments and the side effects fo the drugs he took for the aliments caused this, haters never are able to reason with the facts, most never read or can't.
Don't lie - you are a diehard MJ fan that likes to make disparaging remarks about Elvis. We've had this a million times. Just leave this thread and concentrate on MJ.
Leave this thread, you are nothing but an imposter. Just stay with MJ and be happy. Nobody minds that you are a fan of MJ. But stop making disparaging remarks on Elvis Presley and his achievements. The way you behave is a disgrace for MJ to say the least.
Make me leave it. You don't pay my interntet bill last I looked.
As I said I own some Elvis music and just because I dont worship his dirty underwear I am a causal fan and have every much a right to be here as you.
If you properly read (hmm no surprise there) my initial statment in the first place and stopped being such a cynical idiot...you would have been able to decipher that I was actually defending Elvis when another user called him fat.
@Unbreakable1978 if they only knew he had a very bad colon problem and the steroids and very slow moving digestive track caused the bloat in the middle of his stomach, it had nothing to do with fat, he had a paralyzed colon, but of course its always easier to be cruel and heartless instead of speaking before you know what your talking about like they do.
I think people attributed to the fact that he looked like a mere shell of his former, slender energetic self...but let's not forget he was middle aged by this point...not the young man who did Hound Dog, and years of performing had taken a toll on him. Its easy to sit on the sidelines and judge people like Elvis and Jackson, but no one knows how stressful this level of fame really is but those who live it
"Creepy fat Elvis" Come on he isn't that bad. I reckon at nearly six foot tall he's about 16 stone here. Not the lean mean rocker of old I grant you but I'm sure he'd have gotten it together again if he'd have lived. Look for videos and photos of him six months earlier for example. He looked great. Give him a break!
Elvis was a class act. I heard stories of when Elvis just rode through our town on a train in 1956 and the crowd was too overwhelming just to see a train he was thought to be on.
There will never be another one like Elvis. No One has even came close in all the years since. Sold enough records to stretch from Memphis to the Moon four times. That is a FACT!! Look it up.
ELVIS....Entertainer of the Century and a lifetime.
i've never knew why he wore white when he was overweight. he should have worn black. he would have looked less fat.. but i love u Elvis it doesn't matter
Thanks so much for posting this beautiful clip of Elvis at his best...kind,patient,caring & generous!! Yes he is obviously showing the physical effects of his personal struggles,but in this day & age only an uninformed,small minded person would continue to make unkind remarks about him.
He was then and will always remain a great humanbeing.
I bet you are an ugly fat piece of shit and have no mates or eles you are i jail wating the death sentence for being evil to the core or maybe even both.. scumbag....
Yeah Elvis was living for Parker's gambling debts among other things. He was a decent soul and people did love him, too bad he took the road he did. Maybe as his spirit left and it spiralled uncontrollably to the abyss, one of his old friends already in heaven saved him and brought him back. Back to the light, and he and Buddy are hanging out in happiness.
It is very difficult to perform thousands times in a year...if i would be constantly under pressure i would take some drugs too...because it is impossible to keep such press...i understand Elvis Presley..
DAMIT! If I could be that time on that same backstage I would talk some sense to Elvis about how important person he are and to stop drugs and take some vecation...He had money to stop conserts for a while. He was too young...
At this time is his life nothing could be done There was no Betty Ford Clinics and the Drs. he had gave him all the drugs he wanted .Tom Parker was to blame he exploited Elvis to the max..you do realize Elvis only had 1 million dollars when he died the rest went to Parker for gambling debts. that s why Elvis worked in Vegas for such small pay
I hate seein elvis like this, it actually looks like he's a character in a movie who's put on a fat suit, i hate how the latter part of his life became sad, he was such a great man
Its 2012, and ELVIS IS STILL THE KING.

charity is a tool for the super rich to not pay their fair share of taxes,when u make so much money that u cant possibly spend it u must give it away or the gov will take it,lets not pretend that people give away money because they want to,as far as elvis weight i dont really care i liked the guy and his image,its just another story of hollywood success gone south,just another notch in the devils belt.they will all meet there demise when u sin too much and take drugs and alcahol

he gave to charities bc he grew up in poverty and he loved giving. he always paid his taxes. he had no issue with taxes. this is so wrong about Elvis. When he died, he only had a million dollars bc he had given away most of his money.

is it me or does elvis head look bigger as he got older
jsimone1320 2 years ago
jsimone1320 Elvis was being given cortisone treatments which cause swelling of the abdomen and face which might have made his head look larger too, but Elvis had a large head to begin with like every.major star..For some reason almost every successful entertainer, actor, and even newscasters have big heads. I think they photograph better.

If Elvis walked down the street a complete unknown, no-one would think that´s a fat guy. He´s big but not fat. The problem is we all compare him to earlier photos and clips. That is unfair for anyone

The only TRUE friend , in my opinion of Elvis was Joe Esposito. All the rest were waiting for their paycheck. That ruined him in the end. Great footage and I hope more "rare" footage pops up in the future. He was the king of music! RIP Elivs

Right. Charlie loved and cared for him the most. You can see this on stage - he never took his eyes off him.

Fascinating footage. And to think he was dead before the end of the year. I think he was taken with the little Native American girl because she reminded him of his own daughter, Lisa Marie. Like most sentimental people, I'm sure he had a soft part in his heart for kids. And I agree with other posters here that even though he's obviously put on some weight here, he's far from obese. Overall, he doesn't look well, though. If only the poor chap would have taken better care of himself. Sigh...

Fat? I don't know bout all that. It's obvious he had put on weight from his former slender energetic self, but that's not fat.

@Unbreakable1978 I just read Dr Nick's book, his doctor, Elvis was toxic from all the coritsone shots he was taking for back, neck, and asthma, that caused the bloat, also the paralysed colon he had caused the bloat, Elvis was not fat, look at the rest of him, his legs, arms, etc, all the bloat was mistaken for fat, Elvis had so many ailments and the side effects fo the drugs he took for the aliments caused this, haters never are able to reason with the facts, most never read or can't.

Don't lie - you are a diehard MJ fan that likes to make disparaging remarks about Elvis. We've had this a million times. Just leave this thread and concentrate on MJ.

And I dont do so until your Elvis fans make the same type of remarks about MJ.
Unbreakable1978 1 year ago
Leave this thread, you are nothing but an imposter. Just stay with MJ and be happy. Nobody minds that you are a fan of MJ. But stop making disparaging remarks on Elvis Presley and his achievements. The way you behave is a disgrace for MJ to say the least.

Make me leave it. You don't pay my interntet bill last I looked.
As I said I own some Elvis music and just because I dont worship his dirty underwear I am a causal fan and have every much a right to be here as you.
If you properly read (hmm no surprise there) my initial statment in the first place and stopped being such a cynical idiot...you would have been able to decipher that I was actually defending Elvis when another user called him fat.

Elvisfreak people want to always make it out to seem as if he was gorssly overweight and he wasnt.
Unbreakable1978 1 year ago 2
@Unbreakable1978 if they only knew he had a very bad colon problem and the steroids and very slow moving digestive track caused the bloat in the middle of his stomach, it had nothing to do with fat, he had a paralyzed colon, but of course its always easier to be cruel and heartless instead of speaking before you know what your talking about like they do.
ElvisFreak77 1 year ago 4
I think people attributed to the fact that he looked like a mere shell of his former, slender energetic self...but let's not forget he was middle aged by this point...not the young man who did Hound Dog, and years of performing had taken a toll on him. Its easy to sit on the sidelines and judge people like Elvis and Jackson, but no one knows how stressful this level of fame really is but those who live it

"Creepy fat Elvis" Come on he isn't that bad. I reckon at nearly six foot tall he's about 16 stone here. Not the lean mean rocker of old I grant you but I'm sure he'd have gotten it together again if he'd have lived. Look for videos and photos of him six months earlier for example. He looked great. Give him a break!

Elvis was a class act. I heard stories of when Elvis just rode through our town on a train in 1956 and the crowd was too overwhelming just to see a train he was thought to be on.
There will never be another one like Elvis. No One has even came close in all the years since. Sold enough records to stretch from Memphis to the Moon four times. That is a FACT!! Look it up.
ELVIS....Entertainer of the Century and a lifetime.

Thanks so much for posting this beautiful clip of Elvis at his best...kind,patient,caring & generous!! Yes he is obviously showing the physical effects of his personal struggles,but in this day & age only an uninformed,small minded person would continue to make unkind remarks about him.
He was then and will always remain a great humanbeing.

Yeah Elvis was living for Parker's gambling debts among other things. He was a decent soul and people did love him, too bad he took the road he did. Maybe as his spirit left and it spiralled uncontrollably to the abyss, one of his old friends already in heaven saved him and brought him back. Back to the light, and he and Buddy are hanging out in happiness.
