RE THE NBC 1977 TV SPECIAl that never was

[memphis 77]

yesterday i was browsing some sights and came across one about elvis conspiracy, and it staed that E.P. SIGHNED a contract with nbc in the summer of 77 for a tv special, this is the first time i heard about this, the colonel sure made no mention about this, when he sent out the 77 summer tour schedule, i know that in may of 75 all 3 major networks , were after him to do a special, but the COLONEL, couldn't get him to sighn any contract/commitment, i will look again on the web and post the name of the website, until then if anybody could elaborate on this , please do. its at conspiracy.celebrity deaths.com

Are you sure it wasn't the CBS Show you are thinking of :hmm:

That is a false hope that is trying to make us believe that Elvis is alive. Elvis didn't signed for no special for NBC. The only one he signed for was for CBS. He was supposed to do a TV special back in 74 with either NBC ro CBS but it never came to light. Colonel and Elvis decided to cancel it. It was going to be a gospel special from what I gather.

no , i knew that he sighned with cbs for the in concert special, it was announced in sping of 77, and as for the 74 special it was to be an easter special, but it was E.P. who refused because he had just done the aloha special 8 months previous, as i suspected the info about this special was wrong, but i jist wanted to make sure.
