'Sweet Angeline' (splice) - From: reeltidymusic [July 2008 REMOVED]
A great idea combining footage from Elvis On Tour and various films.
This version creates the impression of a studio filmed sequence and is a splice of the backing track and the vocal dub.

'If I Can Dream' - Elvis & Celine Dion - From: pjmaarek[July 2008 REMOVED]
A newly posted good quality version of the classic American Idol video.
Study the long-shots & hand close-ups to spot Elvis body-double Ryan Pelton who was actually standing next to Celine Dion on stage. Still magnificent enough to make you cry.

'Ain't That Loving You Baby' - Elvis with Laurel & Hardy- From: reeltidymusic [July 2008 REMOVED]

This is very clever - so funny I had to play it again immediately

'Blue Suede Shoes' 1968 - From stephenseriously [Xmas 2007 REMOVED]
More 'Blue Suede' (see fifties version below) so as to compare what changes 12 years can bring!
The answer is nothing much except that Elvis' suit changes from wool to leather!
Post Beatles, Elvis still rocks out!

(EIN thanks to Andrew UKBrit for the input)

'Early Morning Rain' (djf edit) - From smithersjones [Xmas 2007 REMOVED]

'Such A Night' (with Kurt Russell!) - From twangit45 [Xmas 2007 REMOVED]
From the end credits of the movie "3000 Miles To Graceland".
Kurt Russell is forgiven as he is lip-syncing to Elvis! (Though I'm not sure if I can ever forgive Kevin Costner!)
Ok, so it's also my favourite Elvis track.

Gladys & Vernon at Graceland 1958 - From: thepresleyclan[Xmas 2007 REMOVED]

Would you be here, If I could have been there?
A lonely pain, we refused to see,
Old friend, you touched my heart today"

U2's private guided tour of Graceland - From leschampkin [October 2007 REMOVED]
This is fascinating showing 10 minutes of U2's private tour of Graceland. Unfortunately in black & white - but the tour with Bono asking the questions does reveal some fun secrets.
Bono loses a point for not knowing that the 'Moody Blue' LP was recorded in the Jungle Room!
(EIN thanks Sanja Meegin for the input)

EPE's new 'Greatest Hits DVD' needs to be as inspirational as this.

'Too Much Monkey Business' - From: SonnyTCB [October 2007 REMOVED]
A great clip to make you laugh about Elvis' amazing life.
Various home-videos and ridiculous movie footage.

Can you imagine the uproar if Elvis had performed this version on TV in 1956!

'You're The Boss' Elvis & Ann Margret - From: shakyboy64 [August 2007 REMOVED]
An excellent idea and a very nice edit.
"When it comes down to love,
You're a horse!" - did she really sing that!?

'Little Egypt' - From DUDDISC [August 2007 REMOVED]
From Roustabout but using the studio version so without those dreadful 'koochy-coo' film overdubs.
A great idea worth viewing one more time!

'Home Is Where The Heart Is' - From DUDDISC [August 2007 REMOVED]
I love this song from Kid Galahad. (See EIN's FTD deluxe 'Kid Galahad' soundtrack review)
A beautiful clip combining the Kid Galahad performance with memories of Graceland.

Set to Elvis and 'Baby, Let's Play House'
The Elvis 101 boys make a historical trip to where rock & roll was born.

Bob Dylan Elvis tribute - From ELVISLAND [August 2007 REMOVED]
Something a little different. This is for Elvis fans who can also appreciate the songwriting of Bob Dylan - as Elvis did himself!
Bob Dylan wrote 'Went To See The Gypsy' after his first meeting with Elvis Presley.
Several references are made regarding Elvis' career in Las Vegas as well as Dylan's own childhood.

Elvis & Lisa Marie 'Don't Cry Daddy' duet - From kristinater2004 [August 2007 REMOVED]
Enough to make anyone cry. Lisa Marie has to be praised for her courage.
Can you imagine the emotion in recording this?
If you have never seen this you are in for a real treat.

'Love Me, Love The Life I Lead' - From DUDDISC [August 2007 REMOVED]
A very minor Elvis song that was never properly finished in the studio, but was eventually released as a filler on the 1973 'Fool' album.
With a clever selection of footage and close-ups this clip actually makes the song much more enjoyable.
You have to wonder what Elvis was really thinking of, or wishing for, in the back of his limo .. .

Elvis Tribute (Vince Gill) - From: JamesDeanFan4Life [August 2007 REMOVED]
A touching tribute to Elvis set to Vince Gill's 'Go Rest High on That Mountain'
A perfect song reflecting Elvis' inner turmoil..
"I know your life on earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, your work on earth is done"

Includes Elvis' great quote about the International Hotel Las Vegas, "If I don't smell some garbage man, I don't feel at home" plus the perfect 'satorial splendour' comment!

The Aloha announcement interview 1972 - From PeterS197135 [August 2007 REMOVED]
Between his dinner and Closing Show in Vegas on Sept 4, 1972 Elvis gave an interview to announce the upcoming "Aloha From Hawaii".
There is no doubt that Elvis is somewhat spaced out, naturally or otherwise, by the whole scenario.

Elvis Aloha Interview by Tom Moffet - From PeterS197135 [August 2007 REMOVED]
Elvis arrives January 9th, 1973, to prepare for his "Aloha From Hawaii" Concert.

And click here for EIN's 2006 in-depth interview with Billy Smith.

'I Got A Woman' 1956 - From DUDDISC [August 2007 REMOVED]
Let's not forget where Elvis' legendary status came from.
Elvis' very first national TV appearance on the Dorsey Show, Jan 28th 1956.
Surprisingly Elvis sang 'I Got A Woman' only once on live TV but it remained a staple of his live act right through to his very final 1977 concert in Indianapolis.

Elvis' Houston Press Conference, 1970 - By PeterS197135 [August 2007 REMOVED]
The near complete 1970 press conference in Houston/Texas. Some fabulous rare footage. Runs 9 minutes.

Elvis New York Press Conference 1972- By tcbpep [August 2007 REMOVED]
A 10 minute highlight of the famous Elvis MSG 1972 Press Conference

Elvis' Jaycees Speech from January 1971 - From PeterS197135 [August 2007 REMOVED]
Elvis receives the award for being one of the ten outstanding young men in 1970. A clever edit from several documentary sources. It's amazing that Elvis admits to being so nervous when he would normally perform to such huge crow

Colonel Parker Interview in 1993 - From tcbpep [August 2007 REMOVED]

A fascinating glimpse at Col Parker as interviewed by Inside Edition. The carny Colonel is challenged about his gambling debts, Elvis not appearing in 'A Star Is Born' etc. Of course EPE in the end did win the court case against The Colonel for exploiting Elvis. Sadly the interview is not complete.

'If I Can Dream' White suit/Leather suit edit - From elvispresley1 [July 20 REMOVED]

A cute video using photos from Graceland, Sun studios, along with 'Welcome To My World' Aloha footage.

'The Sound Of Your Cry' - From purelistener [June 20 REMOVED]
Another clever photo-montage, while we are in the mood for classic introspective songs.

"Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry"

'Burning Love II' ('72 rehearsal) - From Robbo42 [June 20 REMOVED]
Sensational re-edit of the 'Burning Love' rehearsal from the "On Tour" sessions DVD.
Combining Elvis on stage intro with Studio rehearsal plus 1950's footage, this is fabulous.
He's a Hunka' Hunka' burnin' Love!
Watch it now before it is deleted. Won't last long!

Too Much Monkey Business/Long Lonely Highway - From ep34240 [June 20 REMOVED]
Five minutes of great home video clips (ex Elvis World Japan).
It's always good to see Elvis relaxing and having fun.

Tiger Man / New Gladiators Karate footage. - From elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
Some great Karate footage from Elvis' 1974 film, along with 68 Special/TTWII material. From the 'Never Ending Love' DVD by STAR productions. Worth tracking down.

Combining 1956 and 68 performances. Fabulous.

A varied selection of clips, videos of Elvis at home, on stage some rare jumpsuit footage. Doesn't feature any Elvis song, just an instrumental.

A great story from Dolly, 'All Shook Up' and a wonderful impression.
"He was the sexiest thing I had ever seen in my life"

Elvis in new U2 video clip: U2's new single'Window in The Skies'. [June REMOVED]
SENSATIONAL clip using a ton of performers, Johnny Cash, Marvin Gaye, Jimi Hendrix, Frank Sinatra etc etc plus Elvis in 1956 and the '68 Comeback Special, singing U2s new song.
Elvis in the 68 Special is towards the end & worth waiting for.

'Trouble' 1968 compile - From: Robbo42 [June 20 REMOVED]
Great 68 TV special edit of Elvis starting that rumble (all on his own).
The leather suit announced that the real Elvis was back!

'If I Can Dream' - Elvis & Celine Dion - From elvos77 [June 10 REMOVED]
A good quality version of the classic American Idol video.
Study the long-shots & hand close-ups to spot Elvis body-double Ryan Pelton who was actually standing next to Celine Dion on stage.
Still magnificent enough to make you cry.
Elvis LIVES.

'Memories' (alt take) - From elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
Using the alt take of Memories from the FTD 'Let Yourself Go' with a
cool montage of photos and clips.
'There's Only One Elvis' so true. - A very sweet compile.

' I Can't Stop Loving You' 1970/1972 - From: elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
A cool slideshow combining the 1970 rehearsal with the 1972 'Lost Performances' live version.
Elvis would strangely perform this on his very last concert having not sung it in years.
(EIN thanks Rob V for the link)

'This Is Elvis' The complete movie - From PeterS197135 [June 20 REMOVED]
Divided into eleven parts you can watch 'This Is Elvis'. A classic movie that needs a proper 2007 DVD upgrade.
In the emotional first segment you can check out Graceland in its red decor from 1977 before Priscilla changed it back to the earlier white design that we see today.

Cry Like Memphis - From vipor0779 [June 20 REMOVED]
While not by Elvis this song is a delightful tribute.
Taken from the DVD 'His Best Friend Remembers'
Sung by Erin Hay 'Cry Like Memphis' features some poignant lyrics.
Featuring the beautiful words...
Love Me Tender cuts through the dark
Coming from an open window of a passing car
And In that moment I believe
I can almost feel your body lying next to me
But one heart beating slowly brings me back around
I know you're gone and I know I'm breaking down .....

Elvis in his penthouse suite pre August 10th 1970 Opening Show - From tcbpep [June 10 Now REMOVED]
A new edit of the TTWII footage shot in Elvis' hotel room before his August 1970 opening show.
More than featured in the movie this clip nicely catches the pre show tension.
A classic 6 minutes in private at the International Hotel....

'Heartbreak Hotel' (documentary) - From ep34240 [June 20 REMOVED]
A fascinating 40 minute BBC documentary about the creation & importance of 'Heartbreak Hotel'
From 'The Tales of Rock'n'Roll' if you have never seen the programme this is more essential Elvis viewing.

'Let Me' 1956 in colour - From elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
From the motion picture Love Me Tender.
What were Elvis' rock'n'roll moves doing in a civil war movie!? - Interesting for being quite a fun colourisation.

Elvis live in 1957/56 - From ElvisPresley75 [June 20 REMOVED]
Another marvellous look at Elvis in the fifties.
This time using 'Always On My Mind' as the theme, this clip features a nice mix of fifties footage and photos.

Elvis: Love Me - By Robbo42 [June 20 REMOVED]
Combining 1956 and 68 performances. Fabulous.

'Viva Las Vegas' (Wildfire Remix) - From DUDDISC [June 20 REMOVED]
Worth a look for the fun compile of Viva Las Vegas movie clips even if the "dance remix" is way too tacky for a dance-floor shaker such as myself.
Perhaps this helps explain the importance of getting Elvis' remixes 'funky & contemporary' so that they do go to Number 1 as opposed to just pumping out Elvis "tacky-disco." See what you think.

'Today, Tomorrow And Forever' with Ann-Margret. - From Robbo42 [June 20 REMOVED]
I feel a lack of Elvis and Ann-Margret romance here on EIN's 'Best Of'!
This video cleverly combines the Elvis/Ann-Margret duet (from 'T,T &F' box-set) with some beautiful, luscious visuals from 'Viva las Vegas'. I doubt if Priscilla would approve but EPE should use this!
Look at the on-screen chemistry and YOU KNOW what they were doing off- screen.
A cute edit indeed. (Read EIN's Viva Las Vegas review here)

'Baby, I Don't Care' (color/edit) - From elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
Such a cool clip and interesting to see in colour.
Taken from the colourised Jailhouse Rock but overdubbed with the original recording.

'Rock-A-Hula Baby' - From smithersjones [June 20 REMOVED]
Classic Blue Hawaii film clip but with that extra added slo-motion edit.
A slight but cute variation on the original.
Another from the DVD 1st, 2nd & 4ever (see EIN review).

Wonderful World' (The film clip) - From lorerules [June 20 REMOVED]
From the movie Roustabout, in 1964 the world may have been a nicer place to live.
"What a shame that it doesn't apply today!" - Rob V.

'Girl Happy' - From DUDDISC [June 20 REMOVED]
Fun edit of the title song. Did Elvis really agree to appear in drag for such a poor movie?
No wonder Elvis seemed to be breaking out of jail in the 68 Comeback Special!
This one's for Nigel. Go here for EIN's in-depth FTD 'Girl Happy' soundtrack review

'City By Night' - From lorerules [June 20 REMOVED]
More sixties Elvis, straight from the movie Double Trouble
Nothing special about this clip except that it is one of my favourite overlooked Elvis songs.
Very cool, perfect for an Elvis 'Cool & Swinging' lounge compile CD.
Click here for EIN's 'Double Trouble' FTD review.

Elvis "Hy Gardner calling" 1956 - From hakanelvis [June 20 REMOVED]
Elvis' only live network TV interview of his career from July 1st 1956. Elvis was staying at the Warwick Hotel, New York.
Obviously tired, check out Elvis' body language to the weird questions - including "What about the rumour that you once shot your Mother?"

Don't Be Cruel (Elvis 56 edit) - From groundSoldier747
Elvis, "What did I miss about Memphis? .. Everything". With added biographical & imitator footage, but it is a clever edit. [Now REMOVED]

I Got A Woman 1956 - From magneticsource22
More fifties. Elvis on his very first TV Dorsey Brothers, January 28th 1956.
Close camera work again and I love the pent-up ending! [Now REMOVED]

Extended rare 1970 Polk Salad Annie - posted by 'erhantitiz'
A so far officially unreleased version of 'Polk Salad Annie' with fabulously long intro. Elvis was sure having fun with this song that night - 11 Aug 1970 Dinner Show. As supplied from Elvis World Japan. Elvis looks so lean & lithe & laid-back - over 6 1/2 inutes of funk heaven. This needs both a CD and DVD release. See it now before it is banned. [Too late, Feb 10th Now REMOVED] (EIN thanks Andrew UKBrit for the suggestion)

'What Now My Love' (The Alternate Aloha) - From n0izel3ss
"Take It On Baby" indeed & what an incredible power-ending. From the rehearsal show. 'To this day, no-one sings ballads like Elvis did', says UK Andrew [Now REMOVED]

Heartbreak Hotel 1970 (TTWII outtake) - By elvos77 [Now REMOVED]
From the Aug 11th Dinner Show. Elvis has fun, the band messes up the intro, poor quality but worth watching.

Twenty Days & Twenty Nights - From coolerator2
A beautiful song that never made it into the film. From Aug 12th 1970 Diner Show demonstrating that a deluxe/expanded TTWII DVD needs an official release. [Now REMOVED]

American Sound Studios, Memphis, Feb/March 1969 - By erhantitiz
Very interesting, but very poor quality candid footage. Watch out for Elvis' hero Roy Hamilton relaxing with Elvis at Chips Moman's legendary Studios. [Now REMOVED]

Elvis promotes his up-coming concert in the Memphis TV show interview from 1956. [Feb 10-Now REMOVED]

Elvis LIVES.

'Twenty Days and Twenty Nights'- From: elvispresley1 [July 20 REMOVED]
A beautiful live performance from 'Lost Performances' video.
Another song that should have been on the 'extended TTWII' DVD.

'Little Sister/Get Back' - From monide [July 20 REMOVED]
More from Aug 12, 1970 MS a great TTWII outake with Elvis sitting down and playing his electric guitar.
Great to see Elvis getting funky and having fun. So why isn't it release officially?

Steamroller Blues Live 1973 vs.1974 - From PeterS197135 [July 20 REMOVED]
A clever idea combining Elvis singing 'Steamroller' from Aloha matched to the March 20th, 1974 Memphis concert recording. As the two version are at difefrnt tempos it must have been tricky to get the lip-sync correct.
Crank it up!

Elvis LIVE in Vegas August 1969 - From tcbpep [June 20 REMOVED]
A fabulous 10 minute clip. There is very little footage of Elvis live in concert in 1969 so tcbpep has done a great job editing audio to the little footage that we have. Great to see Elvis working out in his early black karate suit, pre the white jumpsuits. It is hard to believe that the money-making Colonel didn't film any of these shows.

'Steamroller Blues' (Memphis 1974) - From: elvos77 [June 20 REMOVED]
Another excellent edit combining the Aloha footage with the Memphis 1974 audio.
We already have a similar version in our Concert list but elvos 77 has worked very hard with the lip-sync on this one.
Cool song, great video.

How Great Thou Art (Elvis The Concert 2002 version) [June 20 REMOVED]
Elvis Live In Memphis 1974 audio combined with Elvis on Tour film. With The Stamps, Imperials & Sweet Inspirations. Magnificent.

'Hurt' Live June 1977 - From rizzy25 [Now REMOVED]
Interesting to compare Elvis' unused CBS filmed Omaha June 19th attempt with the May version above. What a difference a couple of months can make when you are not well. Elvis rightly acknowledges "I need all the help I can get on this one!" - See EIN 'In Concert' DVD review.

'My Way' (Elvis By The Presleys) - From rizzy25 [Now REMOVED]
