Music & Recordings:

1961 = 775,078
1962 = 775,000
1963 = 546,000
1964 = 506,000
1966 = 644,000
1967 = 817,000
1968 = 532,000
1969 = 794,000
1970 = 1,325,000
1971 = 1,200,000
1972 = 1,100,000
1973 = 4,214,000
1974 = 750,000 [50% of this went to Parker]

The 1973 'buyout' of his back-catalogue by RCA greatly reduced his 1974 figure !
And who'd have thought '67 would exceed '68 - and by such a margin !

Films

1961 = 902,610
1962 = 902,000
1963 = 1,253,000
1964 = 1,508,000
1966 = 2,500,000
1967 = 2,700,000
1968 = 2,600,000
1969 = 1,096,000
1970 = 730,000
1971 = 114,000
1972 = 356,000
1973 = 143,000

Amazing how much he was still earning from the poorly-received films of '66-'67-'68 !

Personal Appearances

1969 = 401,000
1970 = 2,042,000
1971 = 2,700,000
1972 = 4,300,000
1973 = 3,860,000
1974 = 3,116,666

How about '72 then !

Television

1968 = 350,000
1969 = 150,000

All in US Dollars before Tax was cut out.

Thanks to Colin B from FECC!

I don't think we should be taking threads off the Fecc forum and posting them here at TCB-World it makes this site seem like a copycat and totally unoriginal

They took it from a book anyway, it wasn't original to there either, one of my books has that same info.

Things are posted from one website to the other all the time. What's the big deal? I enjoyed looking over it and would not have seen it had he not put it here.

Thanks Brad.

I think it's wrong to do that

It's against my personal beliefs

I like it, gives a whole new group of people here at TCB a chance to talk about it.

Looking at those figures its easy to think that wasn't very much but it was for the time. Too bad he didn't have more capable people to manage it for him because he certainly didn't have much left when he died. From what I hear he never took any deductions either so he had to have paid out a ton in taxes.

Well, I'm sorry Brian, I have credit to the orginal person who posted this which was Colin B.;)

I thought it would be interesting for our members to see, as maybe some don't visit other sites.

I agree JDD, Colonel in my opinion, when after what deals would benefit him and his crew first like Tom Diskin, then Elvis. Colonel in the later years always got a huge percentage, alot of times, more than Elvis, on deals. Sad thing really.

Interesting Brad, thank you.

And come on, give us a break already, all Elvis sites share the same material or news more or less. No big deal.

And personal believes Brian, have little to do with a subject like this. Lighten up my friend, it's Elvis business amongst Elvis fans.

Everything Elvis has been discussed on one medium or another in the last 30 years, there is very little new information and most forums have several members who frequent numerous sites and take ideas or information to discuss, I really don't see any harm especially when the original site/person is credited.

That is so wrong

I think the owners of this site might want to look into taking legal action against Fecc for having posters who do that.

Why would they, when the Elvis community has so much more to gain by being a happy, sharing and non-litigious fraternity?

Lighten up, Brian. :doh: Elvis has been gone thirty years and the same ol' stuff has been discussed over and over both here and at FECC (of which I'm also a proud member) - so this should be no different.

*copies & pastes info to my computer*

That's truly very interesting info but....even though AFH was a benefit show, does it not count as being warranted to be listed - even though we already know the amount that was raised?

And just think what those figures would have looked like if Elvis had actually had a manager who wasn't a thief!!! :angry:

The more I think about it I think Tony's wrong about Fecc and TCB-world posting things vice versa.
I don't recall the Fecc forum posting threads that someone else here at TCB-world posted here first
We do that sometimes they don't.

I understand Tony's point about talking about the same old stuff because of Elvis being dead for 32 years and i've got a solution.

I think i'll finally post my Peter Guralknick is an overrated writer thread
That would make a good original topic

Most of the people on the really popular Elvis sites say he is the greatest writer ever. blah blah blah.
so it would be something different

Brian, you have a right to your opinion, but if you don't like thread, simply ignore it...There's more important things in life than worrying about a thread being posted that was posted on another Elvis site...

You have also started threads on here asking a question that you stated was asked on other Elvis sites...Was that original? Why are you going on about it?

Some of us appreciate reading the info that Brad posted here in this thread...(y)

Excuse me? :mad: :hmm: I'm not wrong, Brian.

There have been things posted at FECC that have also been cross-posted here.

As long as proper permission is given as to where/who the article came from, I have no problem with it whatsoever. This was actually all new information to me.

I'm not getting into an argument because I don't feel like it....I'm going to bed....goodnight!

I'am sure if the poster who posted the information first on fecc had a problem, he would of been here and said something so my guess is brian your taking this a little to far so really its time to move on and forgot about it.

Just alittle note..l have posted stuff here that has been posted on Fecc and you don't see me getting all upset about it and l got the credit for it too.
