I was seven when the "comeback" was broadcast, but I never knew it existed until a rebroadcast years later (at the time of his death?) Looking at the clip, it's hard to believe he died the way he did. Only the Ramones made a cooler statement with leather.
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:
