Elvis felt his music!NObody comes close to him in talent looks or performance!He was so gifted❤❤❤❤

Elvis' babble is better than any others' performances combined.......

NO ARTIST COULD MOVE LIKE ELVIS, THAT'S A FACT ❤ ❤ ❤

Elvis had the best two step in the business, totally uninhibited and very sexy. Gotta love him.❤

Love this performance! Not only did he have rhythm, but good moves. Don’t know anyone that has been able to top that since.

Omg he was so into the beat! This is so darn good! What a performer, noone will ever compare! I love this performance the most! So spontaneous! Ty so funny too! 😊

I always love the way Elvis jokes around on stage

There’s no doubt Elvis was and is an always will be the very best

Elvis was, is definitely the man. He was funny, talented and unique. He felt the music he performed, he was the music he performed. Thank you for this fabulous video!❤

I love this one too....he is absolutely at home on stage and how can anyone not smile watching him just be ....Elvis.😅😊 such a character too...I always thought his music is for all generations to love.

I love when he’s SO into the music that he just takes off on a total ad lib! I was just thinking the exact same thing when u said his band had to be prepared for anything! Like the part where he does the “now that’s Polk (drum) salad” (drum drum) Ronnie Tutt had to really be paying attention to be sure he got those beats in for him! That goes all the way back to early in his career when he did Hound Dog on one of the early shows (Sullivan maybe?) and at the end he slowed it down to a really slow version and later, one of the guys, (I think JD Fontana) asked him what made him think to do that without telling them first, or something like that, and Elvis said something like aw I knew y’all would get it! Even watching that performance u can see Scotty and Bill totally watching Elvis the whole time to see what he was gonna do. Elvis was always the one in control n I loved it! ❤❤

ELVIS HAD MOVES WITH CLASS THAT MATCHED HIS CHARM AND LOOKS !

I love watching him joking cut up while he's singing

I’ve always loved how he could use his vocal gyrations to energize his band and set the rhythm and feel he was after. That’s where that chunky, jivey sound comes from as Ronnie and James take off with it on the drums and guitar.

The Performance is so Great..nobody looked...sounded or moved like Elvis...he was totally unique...add his looks and Charisma onto that...He certainly was in a league of his own...As I've said before the title of King of RnR under estimates his ability to sing anything, as he was reported to say "I don't sound like anyone "....King of music maybe more Apt...then I'm bias....been hooked on Elvis since the early 1970s

He was fantastic in Vegas, especially the early 70's. He'd get moving, especially to Polk Salad and you thought he would dislocate all the bones in his body. Plus the audience all moved with him. Amazing.

Loved this performance, moves, energy, charisma it hits you like a tonne of bricks. 👍❤️🇦🇺

You know, all these imitators? Try to get the feeling of Elvis Presley. But it never works far as I'm concerned. There's nobody like the king❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I think what made all of this "ELVIS" legendary stuff was because of this dynamic, .....Elvis himself wasnt aware of how great HE was, how talented HE was, how much charisma, style, charm HE had. His humility and/or unawareness if you will, of all these traits he possessed, allowed all of these wonderful traits to flow out of him. He never took himself too seriously. He never could see what all the big fuss was about him because he didnt see for himself how great he really was.

ELVIS THE GREATEST STAR OF ALL TIME AND FOR CENTURIES //// Beloved ELVIS has been the only one in my heart since 1956 // TCB / ELVIS God's gift to us mere mortals!! God bless him!

Thank you so much. Yeah Baz has some big plans coming up with all the Elvis concert footage from 1969 throughout 1972.

I love these early 70's performances! Elvis had great humor and energy. I could watch this a million times! Thank you!!

He was so electric and high energy at this time.

Love this version too. But I could see why they chose the 8/12 version. It’s more polished and it’s faster and there’s just something about it. Both are great and I love how loose he is here.

I never tire of watching Elvis. Thank you so much for taking your time to put this together . Elvis is the MAN!❤❤❤❤

It's one of those songs where you really need to watch the video and not just hear the song. Only a true performer like Elvis could go out and do that song like that (of course all due respect to Tony) with all those vocalisations and crazy moves (...and somehow look cool as f*** rather than ridiculous 😅)

Perfection

He is a monster on stage !!!!!!!!! His charisma is fantastic!!!!!!! His passion and his performance absolutely MAGNIFICENT!!!!!! UNIQUE IN THE WORLD FOR EVER AND EVER!!!!!!!!!

Omg that performance made me pass out I MADE never get out of bed again unless I have a surreal dream of Elvis Presley singing that song to me. This is incredible 50yrs later and he can put me in a Spellbound State. 🦌🎶🎤🎸🎹🎵🎷🎺🎼☄☄☄

Thank you so much!! I so agree with you...like that black minister said he was a bundle of energy set to music!

His spontaneity is what sets him apart. Everybody now is completely scripted and choreographed. I think he did a lot of it to keep himself from getting bored

You know, there was nothing ever Vulger about Elvis when he performed. His shows were mostly Rated G (unlike today's entertainers). He was the Quintessential Entertainer! Never to be Beat, Ever! As Vernon Presley said; "He was a gift from God".

Love this man. His sound and movements were natural and genuine....beautiful beast of a man, artist and entertainer. People hate on him out of jealous and misplaced resentment. Elvis Presley: the one artist others find difficult to emulate and imitate. Good try and effort, though. That in itself says something extraordinary - EP was and will always be the Original, no copies required. King Emperor ✌🏼💯⚡❤️

The best version. So free, and I like the improvisation. 👏👏👏👏 and the band great

Yes, I am always telling people this is the best I seen this song I wish they will put this one on DVD and show more light as well. Keep on doing a good job for Elvis. He will never die. Thank you for sharing. Chap 😊

This is amazing!! He was an absolute original! Thanks for sharing! Man could Elvis perform 👑❤️‍🔥😇😋🥵🔥💜🎶😍😘🎸⚡️🙌🏼 He just always went by instinct. It's remarkable!!!!!

Our sweet Elvis what a joy is watching him god bless his soul how natural and talented he was weeee looove hiiiimmmm. Wow he is only only one !!!!!!!

It's the Concho jumpsuit here. The TTWII version was the Chain suit. He is the only one who could do things on stage - no matter what it was - & it would look right, be enjoyable, fun, & look normal. If anyone else tried some of the stuff that he did naturally, they would look foolish.

Wow, he was deep into it. What a talent. So very loose.

Elvis felt the groove.

Elvis had newly died when I became of fan of his music. I was nine years old and had his records, I bought his bubble gum trading cards and I pretended that my bed was a stage while I lip synced to his records pretending to be him. Even when I grew up or so called grew up, lol I sang his songs at karaoke doing his moves while getting the crowd riled up.

What a great performance ! Thanks for all you do for this Elvis family . Saw him 4 times , absolutely nothing like it .

ELVIS !!!! So Sexy !!! ELVIS Was talented beyond measure !!!! ELVIS You Deserved so much more.THANK you ELVIS for all the BEAUTIFUL MUSIC YOU LEFT BEHIND. You will never be forgotten.💖💓💕❤💜💙💛💘👑👑👑

*Yes, Elvis was an amazing and unique performer during his rather short life! Much* *appreciated Elvis is the Man!*

Oh my days!!! Thank you so much for bringing this to us and please never stop.. Love your smile throughout... Definitely the best version.. Amazing!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

You know i have seen a lot of artists in concerts but i trade them all just to see Elvis perform for 30 minutes!

Elvis put everything he had into "That's The Way It Is" He was quoted as saying it was the best movie he ever made. During this time his life was great, and the cameras were on him. He wasn't aware yet, that he was never going to tour the world, that his wife would leave him, that record sales were going to slump, his touring was going to ramp up to pay for the Colonel's gambling debts, and his excessive spending, his bad eating habits and drug use were going to catch up to him. His visit with Nixon isn't talked about much, but I think that adventure opened his eyes as well. Walking the streets, the girls weren't trying to tear his clothes off, for the most part, he wasn't even noticed. Found his records in the oldie's section of the record shop. We see a physically, and mentally different Elvis in "On Tour". At a local theater, they were showing "That's The Way It Is". and "On Tour" back to back. I went with a friend of mine who was also an Elvis. We both noticed the change. The exception to the notable decline was Madison Square Garden, he seemed like his old self. Then Via Satellite, he seemed even more troubled...

We hard core collectors have owned these unreleased raw footage shows for over 20 years. It’s unbelievable that they still haven’t cleaned, remastered and released these additional shows for a complete TTWII dvd set. So much great stuff still not officially released. Thanks for posting!

Elvis was charismatic as all get out. That brother had that funky vibe going. You are absolutely right. I believe Ebony or Jet magazine did the interview. I hate that some 5th rate rap group would call him racist in that 90’s song. Although I’ve heard in more recent interviews with that rapper seemed to walk back his statements. I have to agree you…this is indeed a better performance. Thanks a lot for posting this bro!

The King ❤

He really had the moves, did what ever he felt and the band went with him, they never knew what he was going to do next love it 👍❤❤

I love it when he uses his voice as an instrument not just singing but adding gibberish sounds as an addition to the rhythm. It's like what he hears in his head. His moves are spot on and his spontaneity and humor is the best. Thanks for this video and I totally agree, I like this version in the Concho suit better.

Elvis gave a brand new Cadillac to a Black woman. He didn't have one racist bone in his body. He was one of the most generous men if not thee most generous man on the planet back then... Darealdeal

It's so hard to decide which of his performances were better or not but this one here, omg ....its amazing!!!!

Really cool video. 1970 Elvis is great.

Yes. What you said about Elvis' best performances being in Vegas. (I know you know this) But look at how crazy the crowds are in Elvis on Tour all the way until his last performances. I've always been astounded with how crazy the audiences are when he does Teddy Bear in particular and his talking portion at the end of the Omaha show in 1977. People are practically climbing on each other to get to him. Then of course in the 50's the crowds are the most insane.

Elvis wow amazing his voice xxx

I agree with you. I prefer this performance for sure. The other one is great, but this one just seems more fun and relaxed. Love Elvisso damn much. I was born in the wrong era. 😢

Thanks for showing and commenting on this version of PSA. It’s awesome.

Superb performance of "Polk Salad Annie" indeed ! This footage must come out and be cleaned up for the fans !

New subscriber here! I love this performance of Elvis! I do enjoy your commentary of Elvis' performances. You help me appreciate those live performances better and what I maybe might need to look for. Thank you! This is my favorite era of Elvis and you are so right! What a treat it would have been to have seen that in person. I am 62 and have been a fan for a long time, but not to the extent I am today! A little too young to hit his concerts or go to Vegas. You made a statement about trying to get the owners of his concert films to release better quality products. What can we do as fans to encourage that? I love how he got into his music...full throttle! For sure, Elvis is the Man!!! Thanks again, David.

He would make those sounds in the recording sessions.Thats how you could tell he was into the music and having a great time!❤❤❤ Loved this Dave! First time seeing this one. Thank You!❤❤❤

Elvis is universal!!! Fantastic commentary David!! How can us Elvis fans or anyone really, not enjoy footage like this… absolutely phenomenal performance 💯 …………..T⚡️C⚡️B…………

Elvis is the man!!! Thank you for sharing this I loved watching you watch him too ❤

That was fun watching your reaction, I enjoyed it as much as you.

I first became an Elvis fan when I was 12 years old, back in 1975... Wow, time fly's and I am still pretty! Darealdeal

For me 1970-1971 I like the best loved his white jumpsuit in the dark light he stands out he is missed so much by he fans but it's great that some of his concerts were filmed so we can watch again and again I never get fed up of see them.

Dave, another great video! I don't believe I ever saw this performance before. The movie version might have been a bit more polished, but Elvis is really loosely-goosey here. Does show a more fun side of him. Thanks.

Good morning David! I love watching you watch him. Your appreciation for this guy is admirable as you sugar coat nothing so when something such as this pops up, we all know why we’re here. I am reminded of the of performances we will never see since they were not recorded. Thank God this one was! I agree that this version was the best: seeing him go off in his own little musical world is a thing of wonder. Had it not been for you, we might not have been exposed to this masterpiece. Thank you!❤️

i wish the Elvis "Tribute" artist would fade away, they give the impression that Elvis looked like them and sang like them. If you didn't know about the real Elvis, they give a bad impression. No one is like him. His charism was renown, his voice was superb, his beauty was unmatched and his heart was generous and loving. thanks

OMG, AWESOME PERFORMANCE ♥️♥️♥️

Now that's what you call "Swamp Rock", bro. And it perfectly illustrates the "edge" that I always thought songs like "Polk Salad", "See See Rider", "Suspicious Minds", etc, lost when Elvis started touring regularly after 1970. They just became routine parts of the set list to more or less be glossed over like one of the old 50's tunes to make way for something else. Compare any of the songs I just mentioned being performed in TTWIT as opposed to "On Tour" and there's a radical difference in the way Elvis performs them. Those songs never get that special "Elvis thing" that he put on them in 1970. Like he just became bored with them after doing them night after night on the road. Understandable. But when you see how he used to perform them, it was our loss.

You know Elvis was always putting in maximum concentration and or performance because he used to sweat alot..and being under those hot stage lights didn't help matters either.

One of my favs of Elvis!

Hi David ♥ Longest version of polk salad Annie I've heard, love it. OMGoodness, how ever many times I watch TTWII version I can take my eyes off him for a second. Stunning. I agree I like this version even better. Your face says it all David ♥ your grinning from ear to ear. Thank you David xxx 💝

Love,love ! And you grin as you talk. I love Elvis ! You’re so right about Elvis!

Loved watching you through this. Your grin says it all. Elvis is the best performer ever

I love Elvis,amazing song👍🤟👌✌

This is a solid performance! I've always liked Elvis's versions of this song throughout the 70's. It seems to me that Polk Salad Annie was one of those songs that Elvis enjoyed, whether from 1970 to 1977.

I find it hilarious that MANY Blacks are reacting to Elvis. Especially Polk Salad Annie. Some of the reactors have become fans and does Elvis frequently. But I TOTALLY agree with you on everything you said. Including the comparison between Tony J White & Elvis about Polk Salad Annie. I'm thankful for That's the way it is... because to me that was his best! My fave era is black leather come back speacial into Aloha! Tysm for this video❤

The way he moves to music is absolutely incredible! He felt it from his head to his toe. I love everything about Elvis Presley.. Side note: he says in this video that it was hair in his mouth. 😊

Dam I was 8 years old back then . In my teen years I came to reckonnize Elvis Presley from ahloa Hawaii via satellite 1973 then onto Elvis Presley movies . I was 17 Elvis die I miss from still in this era . My family ain't travellers so I taken up there habbit I never ever left Australia I'm still here in Sydney I'm 63 now missing Elvis so much every time we go into the new year it feels I'm leaving Elvis behind 😞. Thank you David all I can do is watch Elvis on KZfaq and Facebook sites of Elvis pictures and your vedios also of yours David "I've seen Poke Sally song on KZfaq different tune to your vedios shown above mention . Thanks David ❤ here from Sydney Australia ❤

With Elvis everything is charming.!!!! only Elvis dared to do all this nonsense and make a lot of sense of it all!!!!! We all love it forever!!

Elvis Really Rocked Polk Salad Annie He Had Me Marching I Love Elvis Presley 2024🔥🎻 BURNING LOVE 🎻🎧🔥

ELVIS is Gorgeous!!!❤

Elvis, 🎶I Can't Stop Loving You 🎶💖💙

The Elvis film completely converted me. As Lisa Marie said, it's a really important film, not just because it was her dad. My daughter has chosen to study Music for one of her GCSE's (we're in the UK). I'm so excited because as party of her study, she will need to study Elvis and his influence on modern music. Maybe they will even be able to make her a fan?

Elvis was the best❤❤

ONE ELVIS. ONLY ONE. NO amount of imitators can come close. Elvis had it all.

This is one of my absolute fav. Versions of "Polk Salad Annie"... I must confess that I can't choose "one" fav. of that Song because even in 76 he did some great variations of it... but the one's from 70 are top... I love how different he move's, talks and sings also the different guitar-styles James did.. Just a great song

Thanks for this opportunity to see Elvis in this video, simply great song plus Elvis moves. Much an Elvis fan.❤🎉😊

Yes this is one of the best performances of this song 🎉 I’ve always loved this particular one! Thanks so much for sharing this! Absolutely Great!!

Greatest entertainer of all times !!

What a thrilling performance, explosive, oh boy, he had it ALL and knew it and played with it, and he sure challenged the other genuises on stage with him🎶. And what a natural mover, at his best and sexiest with only himself as the choreographer🕺💥. Great!!

Ģreat show he was on fire,💫⚡💫 Exhilarating💖

I'm so glad Baz came out with that movie. He showed the truth Elvis. He was the best entertainer that's ever lived.

I agree! This was a much better performance. He's more relaxed, and you couldn't really see it but his band had to be watching Elvis real close to see what he was going to do. Elvis really enjoyed himself in this. I absolutely loved it!!

Fantastic David 👌

Hey brother I love your videos I like how u was talking about the ones that thinks they know everything about Elvis an try to tell everyone else there wrong but u no as long as we are loving Elvis that’s what matters thanks brother

Love your videos and especially the way you dive into the small details of his performances. I agree with everything you say.
