Elvis - 30 Years Ago Today, RIP

What an icon!

My first memorable exposure to 'The King' was the 1968 comeback TV special. I was only 4 but I can remember the EXCITEMENT in the house more than the show itself - my mom and her sisters all making cat calls. To this day it is my most favorite performance.

Anyhow, hats off to the legend. A little something on Youtube I enjoyed in rememberence:

I remember that show. I was 5 and my biggest memories were of my mom and dad's coments of how Elvis looked strung out. Huh, imagine that! Thanks for the link, really took me back. Music the time transporter

Thanks for posting - enjoyed the clip. I was 18 at that time and he sure spoke to the hormones and existential angst.
