@Chris Ellsworth This is so true! Many people don`t realize that it was Elvis who has lifted musical performances in Vegas to the next level. Other performers are profiting from his achievements to this day. (Well, Covid Lockdown excluded). Las Vegas has written Elvis Presley all over the place. VIVA Elvis :)))

[@borismcfinnigan3430]

Dani i agree totally. The 68 comeback special was peak Elvis. He was in great conditon vocally, physically, personally and just totally in form. From the live stage stuff (My fave is "Love me") to the very produced montage of film songs ("Let yourself go" is my fave there), this was possibly the best show by any entertainer or group ever. Elvis was just the best, i have always been out of place with how much i admire the guy, being born in the 80s i knew NOBODY growing up that shared my interest in Elvis but as time goes by it seems his popularity and reach actually grows. Really wish he had been around to see it.

If u want to design the perfect rockstar I think Elvis at that point is that rockstar.... Sex appeal in the black leather is off the scale..... I think Elvis that's the way it is shows Elvis the showman.... The versatility of the songs and his developing stage act and the Hawaii show is the pinnacle of a music superstar.... A musical icon.....

Looking at him in this special it is hard to imagine he wanted to cancel it last minute. He was so nervous... he thought because he had been away from performing for about 9 years he would not be accepted. The producer guaranteed him that if he went out there and was just himself he would absolutely be accepted.How wonderful for him and us that he took the producers advice.....talk about feeling the love❤❤❤❤❤❤🎵🎶🎸🎤

Yes this special is so so good! Crazy but female and male fans love this guy equally !!! Elvis being a guy one would think 60-70% of his fans would be female but he has his male and female fans who love him to death. Love him and his singing. Nervous guy they say before concerts but the crazy part is he's so himself and natural. When he feels the love of the fans at a concert that's when he feels safe then he just becomes Elvis. It's a great song and he's having fun. He's enjoying himself. It's like. a love fest ... Your so true ...he always handled situations on stage like a fly buzzing around his soup...swat it away and keep eating. This special has Elvis doing lots of his Christian stuff too. Ya know it's sincere too even though ya know Elvis is a womanizer in real life. Yes he was a saint and very sincere in his love for God but he got tempted and it was the weak link in the chain for him . 99% of girls I think would fall for Elvis if they were in the temptation ...

[@OverandOutChief1]

He indeed came back to show all the "newbies" on the charts why they called him the King. Remember, he only had a few good television shows that were quite tame from what he was doing on the roads. The Beatles, Stones, Doors, and all others were literally kids when Presley was cutting through Texas, Louisiana, Virginia, and throughout the south during the 54-56 years. He put on shows with a whole lot more than what we saw on the Sullivan show or any other show at the time. I think he effectively told the world on this night there was no need for a bunch of music driven songs and I'll prove it. Just him, leather, and the voice.

To see and hear elvis. Is to love love love love. Him. He is so addicting. You ain't listening to him. 1. X. And that is it. No no no way. It ain't happening. You will follow him. He was the brightest. Star. In the whole world. He even didn't realize why the girls. Were screaming. He got on stage. And acted. Natural. That is pure raw. Natural. God given. Talent. With the annointed voice. Yes he was a shy humbled. Country boy. With a god lovin soul. His mama said to him don't ever forget your. Roots. And he never did. So so so so sweet. Never. Be another. He owned that stage and audience when he did that walk he does. I can see your reaction you love love him. Ok. Enuff said. God bless you and be safe

Dani, I always thought that the '68 Special was the GREATEST thing Elvis ever did. And another thing the way Elvis played the guitar, I thought that was overlooked by many. If you ever get a chance to see the complete special, all the sit down shows, the stand up shows, the opening sequences, the outtakes, everything. There is just so much to this Special. It is totally incredible.

[@deegee5521]

I first heard Elvis in 1956 as a 12yo when my female cousin played her copy of the Heartbreak Hotel single. I was rapt..until then the popular stuff was Nat King Cole, Perry Como etc and while great singers, not in the same league for entertainment or charisma as Elvis. As a male, Elvis was my hero and I have remained a fan since then. I thank you for helping to keep his memory and legend alive. Cheers and best wishes .

[@jpgaringer666]

I was 6 years old when this was on and we watched it and loved the whole show. Elvis had a voice like no other person he could sing any song any style of music he truly was the King

[@mikebeal2425]

Miss Atkinson, a side note to this particular segment of the show, the gentleman playing the tambourine was Lance Legault. He appeared in four Elvis movies. ( Girls Girls Girls, Kissing Cousins, Roustabout and Viva Las Vegas ). Essentially all were mere moments. While a fairly successful character actor, his voice work was of bigger note. Considered a good friend of Elvis, it is also noteworthy that at one point he became the audio tour guide for Elvis Presleys Graceland. Providing background information to various aspects of his home, automobiles, airplanes and private collections. Once again, my appreciation to yourself. Your enthusiasm and appreciation for this man's work is a reminder of just how powerful and timeless his contributions to the entertainment world and beyond continue to be. Mike Beal

Thank you so much for reacting to one of my and many other requests on this 'Satuthursday'! 😉 I know that you tried "Trying To Get To You"! Ha, you tried trying to get to you 😂 But seriously, i know that it got blocked, but this one is also a great one! Have you ever seen such a cool but hot guy? Absolutly amazing! His matured, raw and rough voice made him a rockstar! Not only the King of Rock'n Roll anymore, the King of Rock! It actually was the sitdown sequence, but he was like a tiger in a cage, he has to move, he must move! He did and the plug got pulled, but no problem, plug in, his little boy smile! and he went on! So What? What he did in this show, after 8 years making movies, was awesome! Like you said, actually everything from this show is great! Btw, i'm very familiar with this show format. The small stage and the audience very close. Here in Germany we had a very famous music show called DISCO. It had the same format, with a small stage and the audience all around. It was aired from 1970-1982. When i saw the Special for the first time i thought that they stole 'our' show! 😆 But i would change 12 years DISCO into the Elvis CB Special immediatly A little chair somewhere in a corner only to look at him......heaven!!! I must come to an end, i know but when it comes to Elvis....... 🌟🌟🌟 Thanks again Dani for this Saturday gift. Hugs and love to you, take care and have a nice weekend! ☀️🌻 Only one question, have you ever seen the Comeback Special Bloopers? 12 minutes only laughter with Elvis! So funny and we know how silly he could be! A must for every CB Special fan! 😁

[@maryannanderson2213]

I am a huge country music fan and I live in Nashville, so I have been lucky enough to attend the Opry a number of times. Bill Anderson is one of country music's biggest stars and he is a member of the Grand Ole Opry. When I went it was mostly in the 60's and back then the Ryman Auditorium, where the Opry was held at that time, was not air conditioned and in the summer, it would be sweltering hot, and the windows would be standing open to let in any stray breeze that might be stirring. Of course, with the "cool air" that came in, also a lot of bugs came in because there were no screens in the windows, and they were especially attracted to the stage because of all the bright lights on the stage. One night Bill Anderson was singing, and a bug flew in his mouth. He merely swallowed the bug and kept on singing. Elvis when his guitar became unplugged and Bill when he swallowed the bug knew enough to just keep going because they were true entertainers and they had learned that "the show must go on!"

[@MarkPuckett]

Elvis was considered an excellent rhythm guitarist, per Jimmy Page and Johnny Cash, and it shows that he still is in this song. After the Sun records (where he accompanied himself on all his songs) , there was so much focus on Elvis' voice and persona that he never was allowed to play guitar on his own records -- until this special. More than a pretty face and powerful voice, he was a complete musician. His rhythm guitar playing is outstanding here.

I think what Elvis expertly played off the most is how pissed he probably was that the guitar cord was pulled out in the middle of such an amazing, explosive performance. I have no doubt he vented about it back stage after the show.
