When I was very small, old Shep was one of the 1st 45s that we had. I would play it over and over on our blue record player. It would make me sad but I loved it.

[@bertschmitz-holle7108]

I'm from the Netherlands, and it's always nice to see the videos of you. Keep doing this, it is appreciated by me.

[@imaculadaconceicao6892]

Cantou Old schep. Lindo. So beautiful. So love ♡. Thanks.

[@leannbrooks218]

I loved seeing his guitar! It's incredible to me that so much of his stuff has been kept or found for us to see.

[@sandralybrand9407]

The little boy is so sweet, you can just imagine that being Elvis and Gladys.

[@christophertyler3425]

Thank you Billy!!! My brother, still fairly young, shockingly just had a brain aneurysm - which, of course - impacts so many in the family, in so many ways, and also makes one take stock of their own life, as well. And given my position in the family, there's been so, so much to do, especially as Dan was away on family vacation in Hawaii at such time of the tragedy, with there being bills to be paid here, etc. Also, everyone's prayers would be much appreciated, while I write really only to tell you how much being able to sit down and enjoy these videos, in my sparse free time, of late, means to me. As between my strong Christian faith and what you do here to bring a little sunshine and levity into my life, is very much helpful. While I've always believed God works through people, so thank you so much - like Elvis - for the pure, wholesome happiness you're bringing into others' lives and might not even have ever know it, or at least the depth of the impact, sometimes. Something I'd like you to always keep in mind, my friend. When as a way to try and help you with subscriptions and because of what I do (christophertyler.workfolio.com/), I'm tied in politically with some fairly well known people and actually administer various groups on Facebook and other places for them. When all told, I probably have near 250,000 members in all the various groups, together, and I began dropping your links into a few of the rooms about two (2) weeks ago. With this being one of the smaller groups I run, though I believe we have at least 5,000 - 6,000 members, here, and I think you might also enjoy being a member: facebook.com/groups/1592686077461605/requests/ As this is the 'First Official Candace Owens Fan Club,' and if not familiar with her, she is both my friend and beautiful and very smart, young lady who has made quite a splash in Conservative politics, this past year, now having over 1 million Twitter followers which serves as an example of her growing appeal. We connected when she first started out on KZbin, when now, too, she also hosts the Candace Owens Show, weekly each Sunday on KZbin, brought to you by Prager University. So, anyway, feel free to join us in the group made mention of, while I will continue as time allows, to drop links to your channel in other various and sundry groups in the hopes of helping you continue to gain more and more subscribers. All faith in God and best wishes to you my friend. You truly are appreciated and don't you ever forget it! Your faithful friend ~ Chris

[@alicemilling3706]

Great video Billy as always I really enjoyed the young Elvis's song too good job😃👍

[@keithhuotari2571]

Thanks again, Billy!! I had seen the guitar before, but had NOT seen the velvet shirt. That is really cool!! On my first-ever tour of Graceland in 1987, Aunt Delta was still living there, and while I was in the carport she took her dog for a walk past our group. Neat to see her.

[@82566]

Iam so glad the store has the original guitar ect. imo it's back where it belongs where it all started 😉heartwarming history

[@SpaGuy]

The guitar does not stay that that store it was there for the week end with the owner..

[@protochris]

Incredible production. Thank you for your gift to all us Elvis fans.

[@jansorensen]

It!s just one thing to say Billy. This is a true piece of history.Thanks to hardware owner George allowing us to see Tupelo Hardware and thanks to Larry Moss for bring the guitar and the blue velvet`s shirt !

[@seenoevilhearnoevil9067]

I think Gladys made a GREAT INVESTMENT. On getting that guitar for little ELVIS PRESLEY. I just wished Gladys could have lived to see how many lives Elvis Presley had touched spiritually. But I'm sure she was in Heaven cheering her baby on. Elvis Presley was always T.C.B. AND STILL TODAY T.C.B. Thanks for the video. God bless you and be careful.

[@carolineharry6605]

Billy, you never fail to impress with the wonderful stories you deliver to us here. This video has me choked up. X

[@glendametivier6027]

Just beautiful, what a piece of history.

[@fcontitwo]

What really can be said , Elvis’s life story continues to touch the lives of so many . 😄🌿✨🥊

[@cherryclift6914]

What an emotional video Billy ..

[@myelvischannel1992]

Really fantastic seeing Elvis first guitar from there to changing the world in music in a few short years. Thanks spa guy really enjoyed the video. Elvis is always TCB

[@bonniebrown6960]

I agree with that lady you were talking to , God had a plain for Elvis . These are such great stories. I know Mr. Moss is so glad to have Elvis' first guitar and the shirt , but you would think Lisa would've wanted those , so she could hand them down to her children and grandchildren . I also love the stories that BoBo's grandson shared . That's so awesome that he has the original door knob from the house where Elvis was born . Thank you so much Spa Guy for sharing this great video . Love it !!

[@bintsyboy]

Thank you Spa guy, great coverage as always, watching part two next 👌 can't wait.

[@DenitaArnold]

[@cut1986]

FANTASTIC! Thanks again.

[@Birchbytheriver]

I was in that store with my sisters. What a feeling standing there. It was 1988 so the guitar was not there.

[@SpaGuy]

That guitar belongs in a private collection so it is only brought there on special occasions..

[@_CoolHandLuke_]

Awesome video Spa Guy! Hell, im speechless.

[@Jordilav]

Thank you very much for sharing that with us. All the people who loves Elvis will appreciate a lot those videos, including me. I hope to visit some of these places someday. Thanks again

[@davidrixson2654]

Great video Billy, Elvis's first guitar comes back to the hardware store over 70 years later.

[@mmhthree]

The young man sure does have Elvis' profile... thanks, Billy!

[@leovandenberg848]

[@rocknrolladventures]

Aaah mate your videos are amazing.and I hope that fella who owns the shirt will one day maybe hand the shirt and the guitar over to graceland for preservation for the world to see

[@lauratibbles6598]

[@BobE316]

Great video and great stories and history Billy, you're #1 my friend, no one makes better videos, puts in the time and gets the facts like you do.

[@kincaide67]

Spa Guy, now that was epic! I hope Mr. Moss have a good safe place he keeps those beautiful relics! I'm really surprised Graceland hasn't already obtained them! Thanx for the splendid video.

[@CraveCars]

Amazing real life stories, Cant wait for part 2, Thank you Mr Spa Guy for bring all this Elvis history to life.

[@hopecastellanos2985]

Love this piece of history the stories told behind Elvis first guitar. And the blue vekvet shirt that Natalie wood made for him are awesome and emotional facts. Thanks a million Spa Guy!

[@chestergood4035]

Great story from the grandson! Thanks Spa Guy!

[@kathysharpe7339]

Tupelo seems like a beautiful place. I wonder when Elvis visited the last time. Thank you.

[@billkoun3047]

Thank you spa guy l really enjoyed this video. .

[@exploringmetaldetecting5989]

thank you again my friend spa guy for all hard work u put in to this for ever one to see and get to know about .best wist to you may god bless you t.c.b lovey work just wish was there with u 2 .thank u

[@ElvisPresleyWorldwide]

First off, that opening shot from The Glory sent chills. Then downright goosebumps from the sight of the velvet shirt and guitar, which is undoubtedly the same one Elvis played in the stairwell at Lauderdale, the talent contest at Humes, and the same one he had that fateful day when he walked into Memphis Recording Service. A few months ago, you did an excellent video on his early guitars, and if Elvis Presley had another one in the interim it would've surfaced by now. Question is, which one is his second guitar? Also interesting is the fact that I'm hearing Natalie had the shirt made for E when for years they said it was Gladys; in fact, I believe it's stated as such in This is Elvis. But I doubt very seriously that Gladys had somebody at Metro make the shirt. Another reason why -- YOU ARE THE MAN! TCB

[@TCBSonny]

I really enjoyed this. Such wonderful stories to hear and very cool to see that guitar and the velvet shirt! Thank you Billy!

[@breannacox6590]

I love all the videos. Thank you so much spaguy

[@annkeville8355]

Hi spar guy thanks you for your vlog I am not able to visit America due to illness so this means so much to me and my partner thanks Richard UK take care come to UK we will take care of your travel

[@memphistenn77]

Omg I’m almost crying about this ...... thank you

[@ramonaeichelberger4628]

Another cool video of Elvis of history. Thank you. I do not think we will ever get enough, leaves us just wanting more. It would have been cool if Elvis would wrote a book about his life in his own words. Thank you again.

[@seenoevilhearnoevil9067]

Wow, I would have LOVED THAT. Yeah there are so many different books from everyone that knew him. I have always thought of that. I wonder what Elvis Presley thought about everything. I always wonder the real truth about himself. Because there was so many story told. We don't know if they was telling the truth.

[@jitterbug121]

Keep the videos coming I love them

[@nickn1316]

Awesome 🤗🤗🤗

[@donniestevens1559]

Great

[@logerat]

Great piece of history spa guy 👍

[@nancymerrifield4667]

Such a great video,I've been to Graceland 3 times but never Tupelo, I'm from Ontario Canada, but now I'm planning my trip to Tupelo,thank you for all your wonderful videos, I'm learning so much

[@haroldwitham2038]

thanks billy!

[@MorningMary67]

It's so great to see the guitar and the shirt! I'm surprised that guitar held up and is still around today. What an amazing piece of history! I wonder who put the tape on it? And where was it all this time? Thanks for getting the inside scoop from Mr. Bobo's grandson about what happened that day! this is so awesome, thank you!!!

[@christopherarnold1568]

WOW I had no idea his first guitar actually existed! I do hope we get to hear the story of how it was obtained! thank you

[@faulltw]

I wonder if Elvis knew how iconic his belongings would be. So many times history is lost because the people are just unconcerned about keeping things for prosperity.

[@GClooney17]

Hi Spa Guy the first Guitar Elvis had is priceless Seeing it in person Is so cool and the story of Natalie wood makes its a special bonus Keep up the great work Joseph from NJ.....

[@maggiemae7021]

Great video, love it!

[@toddjones5795]

Very interesting!

[@rustyshackelford5876]

On my next trip to Memphis I’m going to have to keep driving east to Tupelo! This was a GREAT EPISODE! You need to head out to HAWAII and film some movie locations.

[@SteveFBS]

Another great video, Billy. I really appreciate your efforts!

[@DCUSMC95]

Looking forward to a Larry Moss video, he has amazing collection,

[@williesmall3855]

I think this vidio was top 2 for me great job Billy

[@ruthfeeney9441]

Great stuff spa guy thanks for sharing

[@michellevolkmann5675]

Hi, cool🤝

[@petesscrapheapgarage3130]

I really enjoy the way you Portray the true facts on Elvis’s biography @Spa-guy , it keeps me watching for more... also this has lead me to believe maybe Elvis not getting the gun that day... is maybe why he developed a grater infatuation for guns latter on in life 🤔... I’m sure every time he held a gun in his hands afterwards from then on, was a grate reminder to him of that day !

[@natserog]

awesome as always....ive always wondered where that scene took place when he is out side playing in frame 6:28 in your video--thanks SPA guy!

[@electricgeorge5589]

So Good, great video. Thanks BTB E G.

[@wendyherring1484]

Yes God did have plan for Elvis and all of us. ❤❤❤

[@brandonguillory242]

great video sir

[@johnllewellyn7085]

SG, i didn't know that place was still there, definitely going there, great work sG 👍

[@coryfowler804]

thanks for another great show did they have room for a hot tub

[@smithsonsmith2575]

Love for ever

[@kevinvanhorn8897]

Small world.... Danny Goza was my band director when I was in High School back in the 1980s in Clinton, AR. I never knew he had some Elvis history to him...

[@barbaraprivate7081]

Barbara private Elvis for that guitar on the 9 /1/56 and believe or not I was born on the 9 th /10 /56 how amazing and so cool what a great feeling look were the guitar of years of been famous his beautiful songs will never die

[@hubbell627]

And that guitar should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or with Graceland and properly preserved. it is a serious risk of further damage in that environment. Great story!

[@SpaGuy]

Larry Moss owns it and it stays at his facility normally..

[@rev.jennyosorio7003]

I truly believe his destiny was planned!! Love your vlogs!!

[@kathleennorton6108]

At 1:10 there is a picture of young Elvis, Gladis and Mr. Bobo, with Elvis sitting on a chair with his guitar. That picture isn't real is it? If it's real that would be some picture. No one was there with a camera at the right time in the day and age when cameras were not usually handy, taking a picture of the yet unknown Elvis as a boy, were they?

[@SpaGuy]

Kathleen that is a painting by Ronnie McDowell.. It is Called "That Magic Moment" ronniemcdowell.com/product/267723

[@RG-hf4et]

How is it that you were at the store when these items were on display? Was it advertised? Also, who actually owns the blue shirt and guitar?

[@russellwhite6682]

Hello my friend loved this video like i said before it was all in gods plan everybody had a purpose that day and imagine if he had the gun,well he would have been the world's best sharp shooter but really thank god he picked the guitar . Thanks for video very much appreciated in all that you do from the ones who cant get there Thanks russ

[@shaunboden6951]

Thanks for the upload Billy, and being given a shirt by Natalie Wood is major cool in itself :)

[@alicemilling3706]

Also Thank God for Mr.Bobo

[@michaelk487]

Cool 😎

[@jmf2471]

Such amazing artifacts!! I'm right with there with the one fan, "very emotional". I was there in Nov but these items were not displayed. But I certainly loved the store and the story as told by the guide. Bought some Tupelo Hardware guitar picks & T-shirt. There is also an "X" on the floor where little Elvis stood. Wonderful video Billy, can't wait for part 2. I saw the red velvet shirt being auctioned off a few months ago (looked like the bottom was cut) Do you know who taped the guitar together or how it came to be in its current condition?

[@SpaGuy]

I will get more information on the guitar when I see Larry Moss the next time..
