I watch both channels that Danny has and Billy and Jo's EFM channel. I love how tickled Billy gets when telling a funny Elvis story. He also cries when talking about Elvis last night and it's heartbreaking. He still misses Elvis as much as when Elvis first passed on That shows how much Billy still loves and misses Elvis!❤️ You are right, Nobody knew Elvis better than Billy, even Pricilla!

Thank you Rich! That was a great story of Elvis & his cousin Billy Smith. It's good to know we still have people especially family of Elvis that are still around that we could relate to on how they knew Elvis from childhood until the last days of his life. Sad as it may be, for me that's the only way I could hang onto Elvis, through his songs on records, videos, photos, books, his family & friends. He is truly an amazing person, no doubt one of a kind. His aura, charisma, generosity, kindness, his beauty is not just skin deep. I am lost for words to describe him, and I think that's why even after 45 years, he is still being talked about to this day and his millions of his ever loyal fans around the world still love him deeply, like I do. Thanks again Rich for TCB. Forever loving Elvis❤❤❤

Spa Guy proved the last movie that Elvis, Ginger, Lisa Marie and the Smiths saw was at the theater at the Southbrook Mall and not at the Whitehaven theater as Billy and Jo claimed. Ginger had the photo in her 2014 book that Shantay Wood took of them driving back in Graceland and Ginger said it was after seeing The Spy Who Loved Me at the Southbrook. Shantay said that she waited outside of the theater for Elvis and his group to leave and it was at the Southbrook. Spa Guy proved that the Whitehaven Theater wasn't even showing that movie that month and on and on with definite proof. The Smiths had a fit about it and a big feud broke out. Billy is 81 now and Jo is 78 and their memories are not what they used to be. It happens.

@debra270013 күн бұрын
Vernon Presley told them to leave and then Billy came up with a wild story that Elvis made out two Wills and gave one to Billy. That's ridiculous because Elvis didn't even ask Billy to witness his Will, he asked Charlie Hodge and Ginger Alden. There was no second Will.

Billy Smith and his wife; Jo were with Elvis the last night of his life. They went to the dentist with him, came back to Graceland and played racquetball. Elvis then sang two songs, one of which was "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain." Billy and Jo then accompanied Elvis back to the main house and said goodnight. Elvis passed away at two 0'clock that morning.

It's true. Everybody watch his videos! Elvis fans matters. Only they were never invited for talks in Elvis Week at Graceland! It's a bloody disgrace.😢 But they do their own questions and answers in a venue in Memphis Elvis Week.

Danny Smith, Billy and Jo's older son, has his own KZfaq channel; Memphis Mafia Kid. It's reliable as is Billly's site. Worth checking out.
@debra270014 күн бұрын
Why is it reliable? Danny was 12 years old when Elvis died and he answers almost every question with, "I'll have to ask Mama and Daddy." He can't even get into Graceland today unless he purchases a ticket so he only knows as much about Lisa Marie and her daughters as the rest of us do.
@johnkaufman547414 күн бұрын
@@debra2700 I think Danny knows a great deal more than most of us. I can certainly remember much that occurred when I was a young teenager, as I'm certain he can. Living day to day in intimate contact with the world's greatest entertainer had to provide a series of indelible experiences. He checks facts with his parents, not because he can't recall, but to insure he won't inadvertently pass incorrect information. I trust Danny as I do Billy and Jo.

Billy has more class in his little finger than priscilla has in her whole body. Billy loved elvis and was a good friend and confidant to him right until the end. Mire than we can say about self serving priscilla. She did not treat elvis with love but billy did along with Jo. Pruscilla is ,,,,,,,,,,,, UGH

the spa guy never even met Elvis , Billy smith Elvis first cousin was with Elvis his whole entire life until the last day Elvis was alive, so I listen to what Billy has to say , I watched the spa guy twice only , he wants to here his own voice more than getting the facts right about Elvis.

Elvis directing traffic was a funny one they told. Also, Billy just laughs when telling how Elvis shot up in the tree at a snake. He was laughing at EP losing balance. It was funny just watching him tell it. Reminds me of our family reminiscing.

I 2 watch Billy Smith and agree he tells it like it was. Elvis loved his family dearly and took care of them. HE would be really hurt to see what took place after his death and to think his family felt not welcome at Lisa Marie's gathering after her death. And Billy and JO have never said a mean word about Pricella Linda or Ginger. they could have but they are not mean-spirited class act R Billy and JO.👍
@debra270014 күн бұрын
Jo has said that Priscilla prevented them from going to the premiere of the Elvis movie in Memphis and that Priscilla thinks they're a bunch of hillbillies although Priscilla has never said anything like that and Priscilla has maintained a friendship with Patsy Presley who is Elvis' double-first cousin (Elvis and Patsy's mothers were sisters and their fathers were brothers) so Lisa Marie absolutely spent time with Elvis' family over the years. I like the Smiths and their stories but they haven't had it easy since Elvis died and sometimes they seem bitter about it.

Elvis was no dummy , he loved Billy and Jo and trusted them , I think that’s why he got them the trailer he knew they loved him and weren’t hangers on , they cared about Elvis and he knew it , in my opinion I think Elvis thought of Billy more as a brother rather than a cousin.

You are absolutely right about Billy Smith who better to tell the story than his family cause Lisa was a young child at the time to be able to tell it. His family is the most reliable source cause they loved Elvis and speak of him from the heart and not for profit like the rest of them voulchers.
