Thread: Revelations From The Memphis Mafia

  1. #81
    For whatever reasons Elvis felt he needed these guys around. For every flaw they have told about him, I'm sure if we are honest we would have to acknowledge Elvis could describe what he felt their flaws, weaknesses and motives were-as they have of him. We aren't going to get those stories.

    The same can be said of people who post comments like the two just posted about the MM.

    If there such aholes as has been said......why did Elvis hang out with them and boy would you get some suprise if you met Elvis, rather than the Disney character some people seem to think he was.

    They waited until he was gone, for most of it, they were two faced ......

    LOL, you don't have a clue, and you know, you never will, and no-one is tellin' ya.

    No I believe that Jerry Hopkin's biography was the only main book out on Elvis's life while he was alive.

    After his death the interest in his life and times exploded.

    Jess yet again you prove to be someone who will constantly drag a topic into a personal tirade against someone.

    Perhaps if you knew anyone who knew Elvis you would realise how foolish, ignorant and totally absurd that comment is.

    I think you can get enough of who and what the MM are from reading the books and listening to the interviews. I'm not real interested in having a one on one with them. But they were close to Elvis and it was also their lives told from their point of view and personal perspective- strained through their own filters whatever that may be for each. I don't think that is an unfair statement. Elvis was not a Disney character- I don't think I've heard him called that.

    Exactly.

    Elvis wasn't a Disney character so perhaps this fairytale about him should stop and people should realise he was human and had flaws like everyone.

    Again, stop with the name calling.

    What are you doing here?

    I take offence at that comment, and all your comments.

    You don't know who anyone is, and you won't.

    I think that everyone here realizes that Elvis has flaws...and I don't ever recall reading anything pertaining to Elvis living a "fairytale" life. We realize that he had flaws, but so do the MM, and every other human being for that matter.

    Daddy, I miss you more every day. You will always be my hero..

    Who said elvis didn't have flaws? I don't believe anything the mm say cause half the time they knew nothing about elvis and how he was feeling. If thats what friends are for well elvis sure was betteroff without them. No wonder elvis felt alone and lost and felt like he couldn't trust anybody. shame l say.

    True.

    But my experiences with Elvis fans has been that some and I stress some, who have decided that they will not read into his life, construct ideas; these ideas usually are:

    MM is all bad.

    Priscilla was his true love.

    His doctor and the MM and Colonel ruined his life.

    Elvis was an innocent victim.


    Some people have an idealised version of Elvis, which they have constructed. That is what I was refering to as Elvis being like a Disney character to some....not all people....but some.

    Elvis felt alone, lost and couldn't trust anyone you say.

    Did Elvis say these words on stage or did you happen to read it in a book authored by the MM or a book someone else wrote based on interviews with the people who knew Elvis best.....the MM?
