Elvis is in great company here. When we got our first color TV, I always watched the Steve Allen Show that shown in black and white. Steverino is so talented, this silly sketch doesn't do him justice. Wow ! Imogene Coca from Your show of Shows and Mayberry's Sheriff Andy Griffith !
Steve Allen was 6 foot 3 according to film bug/c o m and Elvis was 5 foot 11.75 according to army records. When they stand side by side Elvis is 3 inches shorter and they both wear low heel shoes. Elvis would appear almost 6'-foot 2" on stage.
The lawyer show with Raymond Burr was Perry Mason, and he matched wits every week with prosecutor Hamilton Berger. As for my knowledge of Elvis, I'm an Elvis Tribute Artist, and we feel it's important to know as much about our subject as possible.
Actually singing to the dog in the tux was a joke, aimed at the fact that certain people thought his dancing was too risque, thus forcing him to be filmed only above the waist in his next appearance. From what I understand Elvis got a kick out of the joke.
@rickserafino yes!! that's what freaked me out the most! it's andy griffith before he was andy griffith!! i was only about a year old when this came out and thus, never saw this before! what a treat!!! (rattlesnake griffith) and imogne coca according to KRCreech.
And that comment about Elvis not writing or prducing his own muic. He was an interpreter, like Sinatra, Como and Bennett. No one got on their case about not writing music. Elvis never had a chance to write anyway between the movies being shoved down his throat and thw whirlwind concert tours. BUt, he did do much of the arranging of the music for the concerts, including cramming three songs into one medley so he could do more numbers.
@kidgalahad55 well you seem to know a lot about elvis, tell me if i'm right, because i was only 3 in 1957, but wasn't the bugs bunny show first on in prime time? because i remember it being dark outside the very first time my mom set me down to watch it. then after wards oh what was the name of the famous lawyer show? damn. raymond burr? remember? that show would have come on at 8 or 9. so bugs must have been on at 7pm remember??
Second, Elvis was a blonde, born blonde. He saw a movie with Tony Cirtis and liked him a lot (Elvis always wanted to be a serious actor, and admired both James Dean and Marlon Brando, and befriended Nick Adams, who starred with Dean in Rebel Without A Cause. That's also how Elvis met Natalie Wood, who he dated a couple of times). With Curtis as inspiration, E dyed his hair black.
Finally, did anyone notice that Rattlesnake in the skit is actually Andy Griffith?
@kidgalahad55 i did! i did!!! that's what freaked me out the most! ole andy griffith before he was andy griffith!!! what a treat this was!!! wow! i am so stoked right now!! i always thought he was natural black, i didn't know. and didn't he start his singing in church? as a gospel singer?
I se a lot of misconceptions here, and don' have time to read all the comments to see who got them right. First of all, this is an early Elvis television appearance on the Steve Allen Show, and was pre-Ed Sullivan. He did sing in another portion of this show, and did a duet with Steve Allen.

@kidgalahad55 yes and who was the one who made Elvis sing a song to a dog...wearing a tuxedo...the dog and Elvis too. But heyyy....who made it such fun and who came out ahead? 34 years after Elvis is still the best ever.
@InvaderSak yeah, but this is him as a child, i doubt that he died it back then. if you watch his early videos as a performer you can clearly see that he was blonde. the reason why he died it was that many people thought that his hair was black due to the bad quality of the black and white image, which is the reason why he died it dark in the 1st place
@acmulhern OH MY GOSH! YOU DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ELVIS!!!!!!!!!! Elvis dyed his hair black because he wanted to be like a famous actor who had black black hair! Learn your Elvis stuff before you say stupidities like that you idiot!
@InvaderSak how sad are you? why call me an idiot, that's just rude and offensive. and if you're mentionning intellect, you will know that there is no such thing as black black. there's the colour black and you can't have anything blacker than black, because it will still only just be black...
@InvaderSak omg..... elvis had blonde hair when he was a KID, then his hair was light brown... like on this VID. He didnt die his hair jet black until after the movie "love me tender"
lol I love elvis as much as anyone BUT this wasnt even good ELVIS HATED IT!! ------>The Steve Allen Show," all Steve Allen was doing was mocking the sensation of the Berle appearance by having Elvis dress in a tuxedo, and sing Hound Dog to a Basset Hound!!! Steve Allen HATED ROCK N ROLL!!!!! as he did ELVIS and his rockin roll ways Elvis was on Stage Show hosted by Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey Then The Milton Berle Show.....B4 Steve Allen Show....
@nerio123 dude i HAVE THIS VIDEO ON A CD! it IS Elvis! Obviously YOU dont know anything about Elvis, trust me im only 17 but im an Elvis expert. it IS Elvis!
@InvaderSak Hmmm. This may be an Elvis impersonator, but it definately isnt the REAL Elvis. Why would the REAL Elvis stand off to the side while some bozo does most of the singing? The REAL Elvis would have been center stage doing the singing.
@dahoss65 um no, this IS Elvis. It looks blurry here. You guys are just getting annoying, IT IS ELVIS! I REPEAT I HAVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:( This is when Elvis was not so famous just yet! He was barely starting off his famous career. NO ELVIS IMPERSONATOR NO NOTHING. ITS ELVIS! Geez!
I don't understand half of what he's saying T__T And I get ten in english -__-' Oh well it is american so guess I just don't understand the little diffrent accent :/
So how tall was Elvis ? 6' 2" as was commonly communicated ? Or, 5' 11" as according to Albert Goldman ? He looks pretty short here, when he's not up front, all by himself.
@JSavic he was 6'0" he does look pretty short :) it may be the outfit that makes him look a little wider than he is, but in most vids he looks pretty tall :)
probably the only time ever that Elvis had to perform a "comedy" sketch, but Steve Allen liked to involve his guests that way. Maybe Elvis wasn't aware then that Allen was one of the most outspoken rock & roll haters, and probably had Elvis on there just to mock him.
Andy Griffith and Elvis Presley together! And the ultra-ubiquitous Imogene Coca. Too bad Steve Allen wouldn't get out of their way. Wish Griffith and Presley could've sung a duet.
Yeh what ever happened to good television??? No wonder we are breeding mindless wonder children. When the world finally does go to the crapper none of them will be able to survive without their ipods and such.
@MrRockaelvis simon haha me gusta un shingo ir a tocadas de rockabilly y psychobilly aunque el psychobilly no me guste tanto pero simon me pasa un shingo esa cura y ademas pues ando de greaser o rockabilly asi me visto!!
so long ago.. so what if he died a drug addict? that short life was worth because he had made otheres happy through his music (though he slowly got bored wiht his own music). its better than living a long lonely life.
everyone one this stage was a big star. notice Andy Griffith one the left? Steve allen knew tallent when he saw it. and he knew what people like to hear back then. Elvis bought his parents a new house by being on this stage.
The Ultimately sad & pathetic fact that this video proves [as if anyone who has read about Elvis Presley & reflected on his early years as a performer] --- Elvis was just another share-cropper on the Plantation]. Elvis had no pretensions of being a recording artist. He cared nothing - THEN -- about what he sang or what the songs meant.. He was a just another singer who got lucky [he thought] hit it Big. That he died as a drug addict & destroyed his family? Elvis could not have cared less.

Or should I say, big chicken shit COWARD. You're a fucking sorry excuse for YouTuber, you stinking scumbag noobie. 19 years old? Bwahahaha, Nothing but a LITTLE BOY. I repeat, I'm calling you out.
@frylock48 who said, "lol how old are you.... certainly too old to be commenting on youtube videos".
I take offence at that, frylock.
Since when is there an age limit for commenting on YouTube? Actually a lower age limit isn't a bad idea now you mention it... get rid of some of them pesky kids.
Elvis did this at the same time when he sung "Hound dog" in tuxedo for that dog (The dog with that hat).Why did he do this? Because there was sooo much commotion for hi's performence of "Hound dog" at "the Milton berle show"
If "Steve Allen was a prick" it's okay because Elvis had the last laugh. He got to blow Steve Allen off as unimportant soon after when everyone competed to get Elvis on their shows.
Relax - it was 50 years ago and it didnt exactly hurt Elvis' career in the long run, did it? In fact, he probably benefited from the criticism, made him more interesting.
Steve Allen is very funny here, enjoy it for it is.
@Pippin76 HOW THE HELL DO YOU FEEL ALLEN IS FUNNY. YOU MUST BE ONE GOOFY SOB YOURSELF. STEVE ALLEN WAS EMBARRASSING. LIKE HE WAS "LAUGHING INSIDE" AT OUR STUPIDITY FOR FALLING FOR HIS CRAP" him and JERRY LEWIS TOO
Priceless! Before executing the move that brings his knees closer together, Elvis drops his head down to initiate the move in his inimitable style, bang on cue to the beat.

This isn't rare.
Elvis did this at the same time when he sung "Hound dog" in tuxedo for that dog (The dog with that hat).Why did he do this? Because there was sooo much commotion for hi's performence of "Hound dog" at "the Milton berle show"

If "Steve Allen was a prick" it's okay because Elvis had the last laugh. He got to blow Steve Allen off as unimportant soon after when everyone competed to get Elvis on their shows.

Andy Griffith show started in 1960. In the first year of the Andy show he based his character loosely on this character here.

Steve Allen was a prick. He did nothing but try to humiliate Elvis on this show.
Scotty Moore said they were all so pissed for a week after the dog skit.

Relax - it was 50 years ago and it didnt exactly hurt Elvis' career in the long run, did it? In fact, he probably benefited from the criticism, made him more interesting.
Steve Allen is very funny here, enjoy it for it is.
Pippin76 2 years ago
@Pippin76 HOW THE HELL DO YOU FEEL ALLEN IS FUNNY. YOU MUST BE ONE GOOFY SOB YOURSELF. STEVE ALLEN WAS EMBARRASSING. LIKE HE WAS "LAUGHING INSIDE" AT OUR STUPIDITY FOR FALLING FOR HIS CRAP" him and JERRY LEWIS TOO

Steve Allen didn't like Elvis. He tried to make Elvis look like a fool. But it's Steven Allen that time has proven is the fool.

Priceless! Before executing the move that brings his knees closer together, Elvis drops his head down to initiate the move in his inimitable style, bang on cue to the beat.
