First Time Hearing Elvis Presley - Polk Salad Annie Live REACTION🔥🔥🔥

[@thedogtutor4998]

He is ONE in a trillion

[@dianekolb3703]

Elvis was the greatest entertainer of all time! He had it all, voice, charisma, stage presence! Never be another like him! Check out Suspicious Minds live from 1970! Another great performance! Great reaction! 😊

[@moonlitegirl72]

Oh my goodness you got to watch his American trilogy I think he's older when he does American trilogy because he seems to be heavier but he has the same kind of white jumpsuit on. Even if you don't do a reaction on your channel at least pull it up and watch it at your leisure

I saw Elvis twice in concert. He could be very silly on stage. We loved it.

[@toodlescae]

Me too. I was 10 the first time and the 2nd time was my 11th birthday present.

[@thethinkingman9338]

They call him the King, because he was & still is ! The complete package.

[@idontcare4gob742]

At about 5:20 it's easy miss him getting a note from someone in the audience. He takes it, looks at it, and gives it to someone behind him. I always wondered if there was any follow up from Elvis after the show.

[@wallflowerj6013]

“Trying to get to you”. 68 comeback special. He will have you in love!

[@timwanwick179]

ELVIS Was, Still IS and will always be THE KING ! 😎🙌🔥🎸

[@dagmar.6954]

This really showcases what a showman & entertainer Elvis was. And he had a good sense of humor. He really liked wearing these white jumpsuits & it became his staple outfit in a lot of his concerts. "Polk Salad Annie” is a 1968 song written & performed originally by Tony Joe White.

[@karlamorrill9618]

He was so grogeous. That smile.

Your comment made me think about something I used to hear about Elvis, it was that all the women wanted him and all the guys wanted to be like him.

[@rong805]

Plenty of people are gonna request the well known Elvis stuff like In The Ghetto, If I Can Dream, etc. Which is great to understand what kind of artist he is. My request is for Heart Of Rome. Recorded 2 months before this footage, in 1970. It's not as well known but it's great nonetheless. It's got a Spanish flavor and he really shows nice vocal range.

[@NewEngland462]

Man was absolutely the best ever. He bridged the gap for everyone. Black and white

[@helenavilhena5804]

Elvis was The First, after him many more came but none like him, he stills is The King.

[@michellejackson6679]

Hello he was the King for a reason... You cannot mess with this man.I was 10 when he died.. my Mama lost her mind.. I didn't understand how amazing he was at 10.. I do now.. the man just had it all.

[@susancrouthamel760]

I have listened to Elvis since 1956 and yes im old now but Elvis music keeps me young. I only got to one concert( Aloha concert 1973)that was broadcasted around the world and seen by 1.5 Billion people. I never met Elvis but became friends with Charlie Hodge his confidant and best friend for years after Elvis died n he told me many great stories about Elvis. At the Aloha concert I sat 3rd row center n couldn't take my eyes off of him. I was a crazy 21 year old fan that jumped up on my seat n thru him a kiss n he winked at me. I almost fainted. You need to react to Suspicious Minds Vagus 1970 for sure, Make The World Go Away,Vagus 1970, Steamroller Blues Aloha concert 1973, You Gave Me A Mountain Aloha concert 1973, Patch It Up Vagus 1970, Just Pretend Vagus 1970 n hundreds more. Love your reaction. Keep the Elvis videos coming

Great, great, GREAT reaction! Subscribed! And btw … welcome to the Elvis Presley Rabbit Hole. Much love ❤️

[@jayeginn5963]

Thanks so much for your reaction to Elvis (Jan. 8, 1935-Aug. 16, 1977). Elvis was born on January 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, in a 2 room shack of a house his dad built with money he borrowed from his boss. That's how dirt poor they were. He was one half of identical twins; the other boy - Jesse Garon - was stillborn. They were so poor, that Jesse Garon was buried in a shoebox in an unmarked grave. At Graceland they have a plaque with his name on it in his memory. Elvis always got along with the black community and learned a lot about music from his friends of color. Also, according to the one drop rule, Elvis would not be considered white, since he has Cherokee ancestors on both the Smith (his mother) and the Presley (his father) sides of the family. His paternal grandfather, Jesse Dunning Presley, was not happy that his two sons, Elvis' father Vernon and his brother Vester, married two sisters, Gladys and Clettes who were known to have Cherokee blood in their family tree. J.D. Presley was quite the racist a-hole, often drunk and a philandering husband to Minnie Mae (they were actually separated long before they finally divorced in 1954) who was always competing with his sons Vester and Vernon and who was known to abuse his kids when drunk. J.D. was was publicly against race mixing and was in denial about the Cherokee blood in his own family tree. It was more publicly known that the Smith family had Native blood in their family tree, so when both his sons fell for 2 Smith sisters and Vernon, on top of that, was still a minor at 17 when he eloped with Gladys who was 4 years older than him, Jesse was totally pissed off. As a child, Elvis already had many friends in the black community at the time his family was one of 4 "white" families that lived in the predominantly black neighborhood The Hill, just across from Shake Rag. His childhood friend Sam Bell said that some of the (black) kids in that neighborhood had lighter skin than Elvis (kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqOpdKyEgtuNjc0). One of Elvis' bodyguards once said that he thought it was a miracle Elvis got into Humes High School in Memphis, because it was "lily white". Elvis wanted to be more open about his Native ancestry, but his manager "colonel" Tom Parker (real name Andreas van Kuijk) was against it because he was afraid it might cost Elvis fans (and himself money). They did have Elvis play characters in his movies though where he had Native American blood (Flaming Star, G.I. Blues, Stay Away Joe). Once Elvis had his own (apprentice) job learning to be an electrician, he saved up his money and bought his clothes in the same style that many of his friends of color wore. He was called a (forgive me, just stating facts here) "n-lover" and got beaten up several times too. Later, when he was an established star, he would not perform at places where the members of color of his back-up band/orchestra weren't allowed.

[@delilahmorrow4606]

[@stacie4170]

One of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE SONGS by Elvis ❤️❤️❤️

[@amandarayray9340]

Great reaction to the King ❤

[@depper]

Elvis came FROM NOTHING. Born in a shack with no running water or electricity. Twin brother died at birth and was buried in a SHOEBOX. So poor his black friend Sam Bell called him the poorest of the poor. Yet his ability to interpret and arrange a song by merging three distinct genres, R&B, Country and Gospel was revolutionary. Elvis was an ARRANGER as much as he was Lead vocalist and Dancer. He was a creator of stage presentation, of clothing attire, the look of a rock and roll star. He was a crossover youth symbol for many young white, black and Hispanic people in the 1950s, no matter their race or creed, and always went against the order of older elites of the day. Elvis was a youth rebel, who dressed with Italian and Cuban collar shirts, wide-legged, pleated trousers, blousons , long raised Pompadour hairstyle, sharp colors, denim and leather jackets, and always looked youthful and fresh. Always dressed on point. All eyes were on Elvis. And the older people hated the look and would threaten to arrest him and even kill him for his singing and dancing. Death threats became the norm to the day he died. Elvis was a strong supporter of civil rights, hiring black musicians and staff members when almost noone was at the time, even during the race riots of the 1960s.

[@rong805]

Great summary. It's hard to know when to stop with Elvis because there's SO MUCH that can be said to help educate these newer generations of fans. I think it was great that you highlighted the arranger part. Most people don't realize that that was maybe his greatest talent other than singing itself. Nobody told Elvis how to record, how to sing, and how he wanted to band to sound.

[@ianking8315]

those drums are awesome.

[@MsBonijoni]

. .✨ Ashley you so funny girl in your comments & reactions. . That beautiful golden boy named EP, Elvis Presley, he has the recording of “Suspicious Minds” at the International Hotel from August 1969, his moves on stage are unbelievable . ..but you asked for a recommendation on him and this is mine for a suggestion. . . ✨ Thank you for this entertaining reaction, you’re a natural !

[@shirleycarr5387]

Elvis had great .oves in the fiftys too. Could you react to jailhouse rock from the movie jailhouse rock by Elvis, great moves too.

[@tdmvoip1]

Great choice of word, you said groove which he was!

[@Kenny-lbaum]

If you like this, pls also react to "Trying to get to you" which he did in 1968 on his comeback tour. This is totally different as he performed in front of only around 30 - 50 people and a minimum of musicians. So it almost came down to "Just a man and his guitar". But absolutely fascinating.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I'm a musician and a music lover of many years but I just subscribed hoping to see you react to more Elvis. It's so cool to see you take it in and evaluate it and also feel it. And he's got video on KZbin spanning his whole career from when he was suddenly globally famous at age 20 then the mid-1950s, and this was from a 1970 Vegas performance. And then it goes up to seven years later about seven weeks before his death there is a final one where he is suffering from health issues but they are just stunning performances. And everything in between. And that doesn't even get into all the incredible number of audio hits that he had just from releasing singles on the radio. And then we would go out and buy those or at one point later I just bought a double CD of his Greatest Hits from the really early stuff up through about 1970. Fantastic stuff. He was such an interesting character and he really did care about race and he didn't talk about it publicly but he did do some songs in that direction that were really powerful and strong and considered risky at the time, plus he had a quite a diverse band and they were all so good and he also defended them at a time when sometimes the black members of the band night not be welcomed somewhere. In the case of the Astrodome, which would have been huge for him at the time, he just said I'm not going if they can't come and they gave in and they had the show and Elvis put a spotlight on them.

[@JAYJason6666]

Neat stuff.....

[@colmflaherty3963]

Thanks for your review. Elvis was like thousands of artists all rolled into one. Most if not all entertainers, Even if they sing great. There's nothing really that we haven't seen or heard before. The magic of Elvis is well and truly missing.

[@SD-mw1hz]

Elvis used his body movements to lead his band, they followed him. So much fun to watch.

[@thymeout4rosemary446]

Check out his Jailhouse Rock performance from his 3rd movie, Jailhouse Rock. He was 22, did a lot of dance moves, and despite it just being a scene from his 1957 movie, it is considered to be the first music video.

[@travisfraley1728]

[@AlaskanGeezer]

Those body movements were directions for his band. He was the band leader. He told them "just watch me and you will know what to do." Elvis fed off his fans. He loved his fans and appreciated them.

[@betsyjonex9364]

Love your reaction. Elvis was a joker and loved his fans. Now that you've seen his crazy side you need to do his tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King who was killed 8 miles from Elvis home in Memphis. From his 68 special called "If I Can Dream". He does it with love and passion. Thank you so much.

[@WoodsWoman822]

Now For the Serious Side of: Elvis Presley "IF I CAN DREAM" 68 Comeback Special (White Suite) (3:12 min) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnKUZWV_qM-En6c This was Elvis Heartfelt and Powerful Tribute to Dr Martin Luther King Jr after his Assasination in Memphis Tennessee where Elvis Lived. It is Based on the message of MLK's "I Have A Dream" Speech, it also honored the Memory of Robert F Kennedy who was also Assasinated during the same time period. This was a Turbulent time in America 🇺🇸 with the Civil Rights Movement Protests and Riots against Vietnam War and it seemed as if the Country was being torn apart and Elvis wanted to bring a message of Hope and Unity to the Nation. So this Song was written for him with this in mind.

Check out if I Can Dream from his 1968 Comeback Special, it's the finale of an NBC television Christmas Special recorded in front of a live studio audience and it's one of the most emotional performances ever. It's largely a tribute to dr. Martin Luther King but also to the assassination of Bobby Kennedy and just all the blood being spilt in Vietnam, which he represented with a red tie with his white suit. You can't miss it.
