Too bad he sold his talent to the Vegas big show hoopla crap on the strip ...like Wayne Newton...or those really, really, really bad movies. Too bad. A performer that sold his soul for money...Oh well. Yet, what a talent! We knew you were young and naive, like the rest of us. R.I.P. Elvis.
@tonykikin10 I SO AGREE ,,,,YOU DID MISS THE NOW DAYS ///OH SO NEEDED "FIRE BALL EXPLOSIONS"!! IT'S AMAZING HE IS REMEMBERED,,,,,, WITH WHAT..... AT MOST SOME FLASHING LIGHTS....... OH AND HE IS REMEMBERED!! WHOEVER POSTED ... MANY THANKS// AND ALL BE WELL!!
I disagree with the all or nothing thing. I like what I like and move on. There is too much to choose from to waste time listening to music that doesn't do it for me.
@Yogiandmetoo Bono says it well...."the Vegas years are what hurt me the most, when the music messiah sang his tired heart out and turned casino into temple". The music may have changed but it was the same genius...the same music messiah...it really was. I say you appreciate ALL of Elvis, or you don't get Elvis at all.
@TrueLight55 So true its ridiculous to criticise him for moving away from his 50s material. He was evolving musically and only a fool would fail to hear how he stretched vocally in these years, His repertoire may have changed but not the unfailing passion of his voice.
@readyseve It is true...Elvis' passion and his genius never faltered...it just came in several different packages...even Gospel music which I don't care for...but when I put my bias for gospel music aside, I am in awe of his genius in that genre as well. (only man inducted into 4 music halls of fame). My fave gospel is You'll Never Walk Alone. That recording to me is the most passionate heartfelt recording I've ever heard in my life. Just hearing it almost changed my life! best wishes
I'm 57 and Elvis has always been part of my life. My Mamma said the first song I ever sang in Church was "You Ain't Nothing But A Hound Dog" R.I.P. Elvis
Seriously, what is funny now is not the same as what was funny back then. Also, music back then was not what it is now. Elvis was funny! As far as I'm concerned, he could crack cheesy jokes all day long, it was what made him so loveable and fun! Elvis inspired many of the greats today, and he will be forever the King, if for no other reason than his inspiration for other bands. But OMG he was so cute!!!! When do ya get that? Someone who changes the face of music and rocks the world?

Elvis lost me when he went the Vegas route. I liked his early stuff with the Jordanaires singing background.

Elvis, Scotty, Bill(not in this vid),&D.J. A combo that was what started it all!!!
Sometime I wonder, if Elvis should've continued with this group instead of going the way he did....
