Best Elvis

[rocker]

If you had a crowd of about 50 people and wanted to show them why you though elvis was the best performer ever, what 5 live performances would you show them?

Mine would be:
-Hound Dog-Berle 56'
-Stuck on you- Sanatra 60'
-Trying to get to you- 1st sit down show-68'
-Polk Salad Annie- Aug 11,70 -outtake
- American Troligy- Aloha 73'

[ForeverTheKing]

It's really hard to choose just 5 performances...:doh: anyway...I can try:

1- Ready Teddy - Ed Sullivan Show
2- If I Can Dream ('68 Comeback Special)
4- Suspicious Minds (TWWII)
3- An American Trilogy (Aloha)
5- My Way (CBS 77)

I would pick;

Lawdy Miss Clawdy - 68' Comeback

Peace In The Valley - Ed Sullivan

Suspicious Minds - TTWIISE

American Trilogy - Aloha

Proud Mary - On Tour

My choices exactly!!!(y)

[Elvis on Stage]

My Elvis best performance is :

1-Am i ready - Ed sullivan show
2-Mystery train/tiger man - TTWII
3-Can't help falling in love - Aloha from Hawaii
4-Bridge over troubled water - Elvis on tour
5-An amercian trilogy - Elvis on tour

[TCE]

I'd say:

1- Peace in the valley - Ready teddy (Ed Sullivan Show)
2- If I can dream - Saved or If you're looking for trouble ('68 Comeback Special)
4- Suspicious minds - Mystery train/Tiger man (TWWII)
3- An American trilogy - How great Thou art (Aloha)
5- My way - Unchained melody (CBS 77)

It's difficult thou, because there were many strong songs in all thse concerts.
I was also thinking about the shows with Milton Berle. They were often funny too.

my way 77' is not that good, aloha is much better

[rick]

Can't agree with that. My Way '77 is a much more emotionally-charged performance

I love buth but I agree with you...I've always seen that performance as the best...maybe because it's taken from his last tour :'(
