To all the people arguing who is better...GROW UP...Everyone has thier preference ...it's all good...Music is diferent to people.Enjoy it not argue...geez
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Seriously, this arguing is pretty childish... The fact is, both are fairly overrated, granted I love them both. Elvis just ripped off of the hundreds of black blues artists of his era that racism wouldn't allow to get popular, and Frankie probably wouldn't have had it so good had he not had his connections with the mafia.
wow...how pompous are you. If you love them both and don't see how one could...why the negativity? Elvis ripped off no one. He crossed a barrier....and the world of music changed forever. Frank was a crooner and all be it before my time..and who made you the know it all insider?
Haha, everyone's taking my comment the wrong way, I was deliberately talking about them very cynically just to put all the arguing over who's better into a bigger picture. I love them too! I just find arguing over them nothing short of silly.
Elvis is the best music artist of ALL TIME !!!! frank was nothing compared to Elvis ! Elvis soooooo HOT and Sexy !!! Frank was just plain ugly !!!!!! Elvis had everything !!!!!
frank and elvis.. both mofo'n hotties.. not just in their time but this time.. it's hard to get a hotty... oh the genetics... where hath they gone?! and i said that!? omg i must feel faint! where has the time gone? sniffles... even in the crystal mic days.. their voices boomed like a grand piano...
Lennon was soooo wrong. Before Elvis, there was Sinatra! and Sinatra did not hate anybody, he was the best, and still is. There is nobody that comes close to being as good as The Voice, The Chairman of the Board, Old Blue Eyes, Frank Sinatra!
jejeej....ELVIS IS THE ARTIST OF THE CENTURY "HOLLYPOWER2"..IS THE BEST VOICE OF ALL THE TIME...AND IS THE KING OF ROCK....AND SINATRA..IS...JUST SINATRA....BEFORE ELVIS THERE WAS NOTHING...!
Hell yeah sinatra is better elvis sings from the words in his head sinatra sings from his heart and soul just like in the song he made called fly me to the moon or all the way those were the best ever
Fuck you. Elvis was and is the best entertainer of the century, the best singer ever, his voice was unique while Sinatra's sounded exactly like all of those crooners of his day. Hey, don't get me wrong, I love Sinatra but don't fuck with the King.
You are soooo right ! Frank sounded the exact same as all the other singers of his time ! Elvis had something really special ! And although I like Sinatra , I dont know how anyone could like him more than elvis !
Both of these guys are true icons and true greats. I consider these two as the top 2 entertainers ever. Both of them will live forever. I own this entire TV Special on DVD. Their duet totally rocked. Thank you so very much for making and sharing yet another very magical video, 5 Stars.
Later when Frank's fiance, Juliet Prowse was sleeping with Elvis during 'GI Blues' he sent Elvis death threats... this recording actually goes on.. on the show they then cut to a short break, after the break they reprised the ending with Elvis saying 'It gets prettier every time, Frank!'. Sinatra is documented as hating this recording as Elvis mimicked Sinatra in his movements and sinatra had no sense of humour. Still the best duet ever tho!
Frank hated this recording because he hated Elvis, he didn't 'get' rock and roll. Frank would not have minded mimicry if it was done well or by someone he liked; he happily was roasted by Dean Martin and their friends, its on youtube somewhere
He didn't speak to Sammy Davis for 6 years for singing 'My Way' and saying 'Eat your hear out Frankie' afterwards. Sinatra was a hypocrite. He threatened to break legs to get Nancy to play in Speedway alongside Elvis and said kind words about Elvis when he died but he DID hate Elvis cos Elvis was sleeping with his woman.
Frank was not perfect. He didn't just hate Elvis because of Juliet Prowse, he hated the music and all Elvis stood for, called the music 'vulgar' and 'desparate' and 'phony'. And on that, I totally agree with him, and fair enough he said kind things about Elvis when he died (you would). But, he was emotionally insecure and a bit of a bully really. Phenomenally talented musical genius though he was.
Neither were perfect, sorry that wasn't what I was getting at. To be honest if you are secure in your opinions I don't think you would be a hypocrite just because someone died unless it was for your own gain - who respects a hypocrite? But both artists acheived the same levels yet in different ways and this footage is a good little documentation of a very historic and significant moment. I LOVE Franks arrangement and version of LMT yet I don't usually like his music so that's a good thing!
@Stunatra Frank and Elvis friends? But Frank hated Rock And Roll!! He said: "It's ugly and vicious." However, I love both entertainers. And I love The Beatles too.
Sinatra is very good, but Elvis is the best! I wonder did Sinatra later changed his oppinion about Rock`n`Roll...Man, he should have.And yes, this is history!
I saw Elvis when he performed on Frank's show. Really enjoyed it! Elvis was breathtakingly handsome then!!! Thanks for posting this! Great candid pics' of Elvis and his Dad with Frank. :)
Now that's the first (at least for me)!! nice, perfect duet! but the girls... only screamed for Elvis... I guess that's only fair!! lol

Elvis was much better at what he did than the black R&B artist were.
Listen tohis voice and watch him perform vs the voice and performances of the black artist of the day.
It had nothng to do with white or black it had to do with stage presence and delivery.
Sinatra's voice it 10 times richer and more sincere than Perry Como, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby and the like.
