To me this is the definitive version, just Elvis and his guitar. Chord progressions that hit

[@marcrollins]

audio warping aside (as the video indicates) this is an amazing performance. You can tell he was destined for brilliance.

Man, I've grown up watching this video. I remember being 12, listening to the majestic warm tube tones of Costello's guitar, mystified by every punchy chord change. Now, at 20, I still don't quite know what the Hell is going on. I'm getting closer, though.

I think this was in the so it goes studios, I remember tony Wilson saying he turned up on his own with his guitar and just stunned everyone with this performance, thanks for posting

[@fullfatdeano]

Thanks so much for posting this - I remember this on TV when I was only 17 - such happy memories - followed Elvis C ever since :-)

[@bettyfelon1]

Cool...I've never seen the complete video..clips of it turn up from time to time.

[@714codZOMBIES]

His first American television performance...sadly the only copy is this not so good one with distorted audio...but this is always my favorite Elvis performance. Helped me see that music didn't need to always be perfect, this was so raw.

[@philwildcroft1764]

Not American, this is from the entertainment section of a local TV news show in Manchester UK. Which happened to be the day job for Tony Wilson.

[@princenabby1]

Elvis's guitar tone is just to die for here: big chunky 25.5 chords with just enough vibrato on the amp to make them shimmer.

[@marksc1929]

...great post ...thank you .....it's priceless.

[@GILLISH]

serious serious song lost of soul

[@drstevie]

Cool.

[@terrymacklin5935]

The door was already unlocked. After this performance the way in and out was perminately wedged open.

[@ruthmead]

My favorite song...supposed to by my daughter's name---her father vetoed it!

[@noah511285]

doesnt get much better.

[@bodach5038]

Hello ! What show was this on?

[@thedroogfulable]

dude definitely not under rated anyone who's anyone knows this is a classic

[@BlueSoulJim]

Why was it wiped out?

[@DanielDuganaperture]

This is the only video of the real Elvis, before John Lennon killed him and he was replaced by Paul McCarthy's little brother

[@HansonZhang-ri2lj]

He shot his girl Alison down

[@wildmercuryfilms]

How do you know it’s the only remaining copy? There is no way to know or confirm that. Nevertheless, I love this video, and the warping adds to it. Thanks for posting!

[@JayDeeIsMyName]

Things can always turn up on private collections, but the original masters have presumably been wiped. In the archives or private collection of Elvis, this is the only copy available.

[@DanielDuganaperture]

This is the only vdeo of the real Elvis, before John Lennon killed him and he was replaced by Paul McCarthy's little brother
