Elvis was a unique blend of looks, talent and charisma. There will never be another like him.
My uncle was in the army with Elvis, same barracks, said he was a really nice guy just wanted to be one of the guys. His manager sent him $1000 a month which he spent on all his buddies.
@@elevenbucks5682 You said that his manager would send "Elvis $1000 a month". But Parker (His manager) did not and NEVER controlled Elvis's personal finances. THAT was handled by his father Vernon. Vernon handled and over saw Elvis's personal finances. Parker received his cut and Elvis received HIS. It was like that from day one. And Elvis was a millionaire when he went into the Army.
AllI know is what Elvis told my uncle,may be lost in communication, what difference does it make anyway.@@warrendelay
Forgive me, but a far better reaction video with more insight and musical intuition: czcams.com/video/Rmks7JtFs7Q/video.html
@@warrendelay Ok Warren, ya might wanna chill just a bit. I mean is it really *that* important now?
In a hundred years, if someone asks what was so special about Elvis, all they have to do is play this performance.
The 68 comeback special wasn't a single show. It was more like a full multi set program. This was the jam session part where elvis sang his early songs with his band in a layback environment. There was also a stand up segment where he was alone on stage standing up to the audience and rocking it out. A gospel section where he showed his gospel roots in an 8 minutes monster moment. A tribute to his movie careers with some different sets similar to his films where he sang and acted at the same time And the if I can dream song was the closure
Full-time showman!
Saw it live
Lucky you❤
One of the only artist who not only matched his studio recordings live but often surpassed it
Totally agree! I love his live versions better, cus he sounds great and really adds a special spice to it!!❤
Absolutely agree!
No one of ...... But the only one ......
Not to offend anyone, but Elvis was a muthafuckin' badass!
@@rong805 you got that right!!!🔥🔥
No Mixing boards , No special effects, No Synthesizer, No auto tune, All Pure Charismatic Talent!
To continue finding out about Elvis Presley, look into Elvis, a generous heart. King of kindness, Elvis and the black community....many Gospel songs, and the fact that he's on a short list of singers that have been inducted into numerous Halls of Fame!!
Actually, 23 halls of fame, but not all are related to music.
he is the only artist in the world to have had 23 Halls of Fame
I dont even think he was human. No human being can look like that or have that much mojo. He was some divine creation of pure talent and personna sent here, and as Tommy Lee Jones said, he didn't die, he just went home.....
Great video, thanks.
Elvis went for many years to fulfill his obligation to do light style movies and left the performances. He was deathly afraid they had forgotten him and hence the 68 special was his comeback to the spotlight.
56 years later he is STILL 🔥 FIRE!
I've watched this performance countless times, and I'm still sitting here fanning myself. He was by far the sexiest man in every way. 😍
Yes!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Agree!!
This is where talent meets charisma = star power. Put it in an all-leather suit and you get the essence of what made Elvis uniquely popular.
Well said.
I’m fifty nine in my life there is no one that even comes close to Elvis and it is because he had the whole enchilada the voice the heart compassion and generosity he gave so much example do you know that if it wasn’t for Elvis the Pearl Harbor monument would not have been completed donated benefit concert 1961 and donated it you should watch documentary a generous heart and the echo will never die. No other artist can compare
Was not called the "Comeback Special" until years later. This was a TV special that featured Elvis singing before a live audience for the first time in 8 years. He did movies and albums, mostly soundtracks, but others including gospel albums His last concert previous to this was actually a benefit concert to raise money to build the Arizona Memorial in Hawaii, shortly after his return from a stint in the army.
Some of the Singer Elvis Christmas special was done before live audience (the black leather), but I believe much of it was not. I remember before the special, radio stations in Jacksonville Florida played Elvis for days before the show. It had the highest ratings of the year, and so popular it was rebroadcast the following week.
This is when he was "jamming"I've watched the entire show. It was a LOT of fun!
There was a plaque "up there" at the Memorial; it has been removed!!!! 😭
Elvis ,when he played Las Vegas hotels and gambling bottom line went up 10 percent no one has ever come close to anything like that he bought excitement and fun atmosphere even to the thousands of people who couldn't get tickets but just wanted to be there. I was one.
Elvis was and will always be the best
Elvis was so good in concert that people would stay at the venue after the performance hoping for an encore until they’d famously announce “Elvis has left the building”.
Elvis was truly the King...
The incredible thing about Elvis was that both women and men adored him. Extremely charasmatic person on and off the stage.
Top class performance by one of the greatest talents in modern musical history with a top class reaction - thanks guys.
Just a fantastic talent, will never be repeated. Love his music.
Sorry, I disagree, not one of the greatest talents, THE greatest.
It’s often been said that not only was Elvis a much better singer live than on record, but he was even better looking in person than on film!
I’m 62 and was lucky enough to see Elvis perform live in 1974, 1975, and 1976.
At 12 years old. You are lucky!
Nobody Better
Nobody
Elvis can never be touched
He'll be the King
Number one Forever
He could do it All
And did
One of a kind for Eternity
The only Goat! the whole package! Thank for keep him alive! Please do more!
No auto tune or over dubbing here, just the reality of Elvis - what you see is what you got
I know he didn't like being called the King
But he is
Elvis is so so special unique the whole package. ❤and handsome.
So happy to see you two reacting to another Elvis performance. He could do anything and sing anything!! The best entertainer ever. Thanks for this great reaction. ❤❤❤
We loved it!
Wow! Fabulous Elvis. Never tire of his music. He is still loved worldwide and will never be forgotten. 👍⚡🥇🎧🎙(🇿🇦)
There was a documentary just made earlier this year called: "Reinventing Elvis: The '68 Comeback" that's streaming on Paramount+, Prime Video, Apple TV and Vudu. Well worth the watch. It's very interesting to see how what was supposed to be a run of the mill Christmas special envisioned by his manager Col Parker turned into this masterpeice comeback that was the first MTV Unplugged a decade before MTV was even a thing. Elvis had been doing a string of terrible movies throughout the 60s and the producer of the special, Steve Binder, saw it as an opportunity to breathe life back into Elvis' then dying career, and it worked in spades. These 'sit down sessions' (there were 2 of them) came about because in between filming the other parts of the show, Elvis would retreat to his dressing room with his closest buddies and just jam. Binder walked by one time and heard this going on and thought : THIS is what I need to get out there...so instead of trying to squeeze cameras in to the dressing rooms, they decided to bring the jam sessions out onto a stage, surround it with pretty women and let Elvis and his original band mates just do whatever came to mind with only the slightest hint of an outline to follow in case Elvis was at a loss for something to say. I highly recommend watching both the documentary and the whole special in full.
What a performer you got your money is worth with this legend!
What a men❤ he isss soooo good not normal.
Gr from Amsterdam
Just Elvis and some friends in a circle. This special really showcased his charisma and talent.
I haven't even watched the new Elvis movie, because I've been a fan since 1955, and I'm pretty sure I already know everything there is to know. The Elvis movie was more for newbies that don't know much about Elvis. I don't even like Elvis tribute stars. Been to Graceland 4 times. I always enjoy the real deal all the time, anywhere, anytime with 600+ mp3 Elvis songs on my cellphone or in my 13X17 Elvis room on my lower level of my house. Tons of albums, tons of cds, tons of dvds, tons of collectibles filling shelves and on the walls.
You have to see the movie! I have been an Elvis fan for 58 years and saw him twice in concert. I thought the movie was fantastic. I saw it 5 times in theater. I never do that. The cinematography, costumes, makeup were startling good. The actor playing Elvis did such a good job. It is 90% about his career. Not his personal relationships. The colonel acts as the narrator. Watching it is like being on a roller coaster. Not a typical biopic.real footage of Elvis is cut into montages of concert footage.
An Elvis room. So cool. Since the Elvis movie, I have bought so many FTD albums. I was able to get one that is the actual recording of one of the concerts I was at. I’m going to need an Elvis room soon. TCB.
The girl in the white sitting close to him is Patty Parry, one of his hairdressers and a good friend. She did his hair for the Aloha From Hawaii concert!❤❤❤❤
Cmon is there anyone cooler than Elvis ? The king !
This was a tv special with numerous settings.....was 2 hours long. This was set as a jam session with a round stage in the middle of the audience with the fans surrounding them all. It was called Elvis , was later dubbed The Comeback Special because Elvis spent most of the 60's in Hollywood making movies. He got so discusseted with the scripts that as soon as he fulfilled his contract he left and started touring and doing his Vegas residencies pretty much immediately.
This one is my favorite! I laugh too he just makes you smile and laugh! I'm addicted to watching Elvis, he's my stress releif!
Elvis looked as good as he sang. I saw him four times. We were in Hawaii when he
performed. He was staying at the same hotel. Very nice,
Also, you guys should check out Elvis and the Black Community, Elvis Presley generous heart, Elvis Presley king of kindness and of course countless other songs etc.
He needed to MOVE to that music!❤❤❤
One of my favorite performances ever that shows why he was the king ! ✌️❤️🇨🇦
he is the king and will be forever
the greatest of all, no one will be like him
thanks to him we met all the artists and bands that followed
both white and black
as well as being the most handsome man with a huge heart who loved his fans very much and who donated millions of money and gifts to less fortunate people especially children for his immense Generosity and humility
the greatest musical legend that has ever existed and will ever exist in the world
So well said
There is like 60 great live song in this show/consert. This was even bigger than man landed a moon in that time. Hard to belive.
Absolute love Elvis of course! This performance cracks me up every single time.... especially when he does 1 little hip move ..then all the chicks start screaming! 😂 ❤🔥🔥🔥🔥
FYI…The two guys backing him up were old friends that were his original band when he first started out. They almost didn’t come due to their contempt for Col. Parker, but finally agreed to play out of respect for Elvis. The idea for that spot came when the producer of the show found the three old friends in E’s dressing room jamming and telling stories of the “old days”…He had wanted to film them there, but Parker wouldn’t permit it🙄
The part was unscripted and Elvis was incredibly nervous about doing it. But, once they got onstage and started reminiscing…the music started flowing! Can you imagine, it was like being a fly on the wall to true music history….
اعظم فنان على مر العصور لم ولن يتكرر الملك بدون منازع
That's why he was the king ! ✌️❤️🇨🇦
His voice is always amazing! He can sing high, low, sweet! It was a TV special after 8 years of movies. He is reminiscing with his original team in this song. Wow!
See Elvis even got himself excited,jumping out of his own chair..So if can't maintain himself, how can we possibly?? One n only, they'll never be another..Love this guy.. Thanks for your reaction..
That's why Elvis is the King baby, thank you very much.
It's hard to believe, that just eight years later he would pass, the way he did based on this performance.
😎👍
Anything in the black leather, click on it!😎🥰
Everything from the 68 Special is gold.
One of my favorite songs from this special❤❤❤❤ love love love ELVIS❤❤ and also, ONE NIGHT WITH YOU this was a television Special right after he was making movies. And it's the comeback special cus he was going back to making music and doing concerts!❤❤❤❤
The 68 Comeback Special was a Christmas show to give Elvis a chance to perform live in front of an audience for the first time in 1o years. During which time he had joined the Army, lost hus beloved mother, Gladys, appeared on a special with Frank Sinatra, and made many movies. Most of which were less than magic but made tons of money.
During the same period, British Invasion had filled in his absence, and the Summer of Love introduced many more new acts to the music world. Elvis was seen as largely passe by then. The Special was filmed in two parts. The first was in the round as you see here close to his fans, to remind them of his love for them. It would also serve as the basis for the MTV setting of UNPLUGGED in the 9o's that many would use to showcase their popular hits with a stripped down, back to basics approach to their work.
The second part was filled with skits and songs to give the audience a look at a more nature performer. It reinvigorated his need to go on the road and perform once again, giving him a rare second career with more hits to sing. As you can see here, his voice is deeper, resonates more, and is more vibrant than before. And once he finished with his movie commitments, he once again went on the road and proved his worth to his adoring fans. He was able to reach the top of the mountain again with his global concert ALOHA FROM HAWAII. But following that triumph, the downside would begin.
You should watch these clips from his catalog.
TROUBLE / GUITAR MAN is the opening from this special.
FAME AND FORTUNE from the Frank Sinatra Show.
And the movie version of TROUBLE from the movie King Creole. The clip is 7:15 seconds in length but absolutely worth it. Enjoy
Wow…… just WOW!
Never again!
The most complete package ever assembled!
He hadn't sang on TV in 8 years and was nervous he didn't have it still.(lol) Meanwhile it was the most definitive live performance in music history. He IS the King!
I grew up on Elvis my Mom was an Elvis fanatic he was truly so gifted.
My mom LOVED Elvis! She was orphaned by the time she was 5 & grew up living with different family members (depending on who had room for her). There was rarely extra money for fun stuff. She worked as a waitress part time after school when she turned 16: the manager of the movie theater next door would come over every afternoon for his coffee break. He would leave her movie tokens for her tip, so she was able to go see all the Elvis movies! She would stay & watch them over & over…
My dad took us to see Elvis in concert when I was 7. I’ll always remember!!
You r so 100 percent right about no autotune in those days and this was live all raw talent so happy you guys are appreciating elvis's music ! The one and only the king 👑 ❤love 6ou guys video!❤😊
This song and the way Elvis performed it with most of his original group... my oh my they rocked it. I first heard this song in 1976 at only 6 years old. And STILL remember how good it sounded. Sadly, a year later he passed away.😢
No comment about the guitar? Killed it.
Elvis was so nervous that he almost didn't do the 68 comback special. He had to be Given a real pep talk to get the courage to go out there. Once he got out there and was able to relax, Elvis made history once again. Elvis was actually very shy and somewhat insecure off stage for the most part.
i am that old that i remember watching this on TV in 1968 (i was 11) - the show was amazing start to finish - my whole family big Elvis fans and always will be
I’m 63 years old and I seen Elvis in concert in 1976. I’ve been to Graceland 7 times. I’ve been diehard fan since I was 7 in 1968.
I was lucky enough to belong to the generation that saw this in the real time what an unforgettable man and artist nothing compares
I remember watching the 68 comeback special with my daddy. Nothing better ❤️
I’d have tipped his chair backwards and taken my one chance at him if I’d been that close to Elvis. But alas, I wasn’t even born yet! 😊❤
Me too!! Same I was only 1😢.
This part of the show was what inspired MTVs Unplugged.
Love this performance so much, had to come back and watch again!! Lol it truly is the comeback special😂😂😂😂
The King!
you just had to live in that time from 1st grade 55 til he passed in 77 his voice was always on the radio i was married and had 2 children it was like he was apart of your family all the girls and guys loved Elvis my mother was the same age as Elvis she liked him too it was great living in that time I liked all the music in the 50's 60's 70's it was great.....
🎉Elvis had been in the army. And didn't know how the fans would like him
Check out a video called “I sang with him”. The Sweet Inspirations honestly believed that Elvis was an Angel…I know, but check it out. There were other divine things that Elvis was associated with. I believe it and I’m an atheist. Bottom line…Elvis was, no doubt, a good man.
He will never happen again, ever
This is the only performance you'll see with him wearing the black leather outfit. He hated it. He said he about burnt up on stage, it was so hot. He swore he'd never wear black leather on stage again and if you check out all of his subsequent performances, you'll see that he didn't.
I think the only people my mom loved more than Elvis were my dad and Jesus. I have her old records of his, albums included. I think she had them all. My dad took her to Graceland every year while on vacation. My dad doted on mom and tried to always please her. The last two years of his life he retired and tried to take her everywhere she had ever said she wanted to go. He passed of liver cancer in 1993 and from then until June 6 2014 when my mom passed, not a day passed that she didn't mention how much she missed him. I know I'll see them both again when I get to heaven. Hoping Elvis might be there too. He was troubled but, he was also a very spiritual man so, he may very well be there.
I suggest y'all check out my mom's favorite Elvis song, "His Hand In Mine."
Elvis with the Unplugged before the 1990s MTV Unplugged ever came around
Elvis was trying to regain his former glory when he came back from his army stint. This was his reintroduction to his fans. They actually had to go out to the streets to round up an audience. Needless to say this re-launched his career!
He came out of the army in 1960, 8 years before this.
@@trishf3576
Bingo
Another great Elvis reaction! Playing with Elvis are two of his three original band members: Scotty Moore on guitar and DJ Fontana on “drums”. Sadly bassist Bill Black passed away a few years earlier. DJ wasn’t with the band from the very beginning, July 5,1954 ( recording That’s All Right at Memphis Recording Service with Sam Phillips), but a few months later when they met him while playing the Louisiana Hayride. Last time they ever performed together. Elvis’s good army buddy Charlie Hodge on guitar also present.
Back to live from years of movies
HELLO FROM ENGLAND 🇬🇧 AND I AM REALLY ENJOYING YOUR CHANNEL AND ALL YOUR ELVIS SELECTIONS!!! YOU SHOULD CHECKOUT ELVIS SINGING " STEAMROLLER BLUES" IT A GREAT SONG 🎵 AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YOU GUYS.
Cool, thank you!
That was fire 🔥 try the same session with song called "one night with you". Ty ❤
Great job
Elvis was and is and always be the King! Love your reactions!
He is sorely missed every year!
The 1968 comeback was when Elvis had been away serving in the military. Meanwhile the Beatles were gaining popularity. Now Elvis discharged from the army, thus his comeback speacial.
Love your channel and you must realize by now, after seeing how many genres Elvis can sing Majestically in, that is the true GOAT as to being a vocalist!!!
Great Elvis clip. This was an NBC special originally supposed to be a Christmas special called Singer presents Elvis Presley. Later it became the Comeback Special in 1968. He was always reinventing himself every decade. That’s why people always ask which Elvis did you like best? The 50’s , 60’s or 70’s Elvis? He sang so many genres that he’s in 4 Halls of Fame. Rock and Roll, rhythm and blues, Gospel ( he won 3 Grammys for) and country hall of fame. Thanks so much for that. I’m not sure if you did his live version of Bridge Over Troubled Water live 1970 in Las Vegas. It’s a beautiful rendition & once more shows his versatility. I’m going to hit your subscribe & like button. 😊❤❤🎸🕺🏻🎸🕺🏻🎤🎤🙋🏼♀️🙋🏼♀️
We loved the BOTW performance! czcams.com/video/Y3WQAYfI6fk/video.htmlsi=oUtu95jzoyYZObk2
😲😲😲 Strong strong você my god !!!
The ultimate entertainer
❤❤❤❤ My favorite ❤❤
He would jam late into the morning with these other musicians, who were his original musicians. The show producer went by and loved the energy and wanted to capture the intimate interaction for the show. See the Reinventing Elvis movie about the creation of the '68 Comeback Special. It's fabulous and you learn so much about Elvis, the people around him (Parker; boo), and the making of the show.
The first unplugged setting
👑✌️
Pure entertainment he was, awesome cool song from him, good review 👍😎👍🎸
👍💯💯👍
Que hermoso tema y hermosa la chica
Bad ass song.rawemotion
Oh no , that damned black leather suit again ... no sleep for me tonight ... takes me days to get that image out of my mind LOL ! TCB forever !
Another amazing reaction. The KING. More please 💕💕💕💕
Thank you 🙌
Love this Elvis Concert!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Damn.
This concert special was just call "Elvis", but is commonly referred to as the 68 Comeback Special because Elvis had not performed in front of a live audience for over 7 years and had been concentrating on his film career. He was very unhappy with the roles he was being given and wanted to go back to performing in front of an audience. The different segments of the show were filmed in June and then it was broadcast in December 1968 when I was 8 years old. I was already in love with Elvis. I listened to his music and watched his movies whenever they were broadcast. Remember this was long before cable, streaming, or any type of recording from TV so if you missed it you were out of luck. You have seen the older Elvis (he was 33 in 1968), but you need to see to some earlier performances. Here is the song "Jailhouse Rock" from the movie which is considered his best film(1957): czcams.com/video/gj0Rz-uP4Mk/video.html
When Elvis sang he had the audience in the palm of his hand.
