That was very special and touching only 4 months after his passing.
Do you have this on a dvdr or vcd..would love to have it even though its only a few minutes.![]()
Here is a 9 minute video of a tribute to Elvis held during halftime of the Liberty Bowl in Memphis on December 19, 1977.
It features opera star Marguerite Piazza and the great Roy Orbison.
I recorded this myself when the game originally aired. It is complete.
I will only have this available for a short time on YouTube so,please, enjoy it while you can

"How do I get placed in situations like this? Ah hell, I guess it's all part of showbusiness "~ Elvis in his limo on his way to perform in Omaha, NE on June 19th 1977
what a touching tribute! so fitting for Elvis...
This is so good, it brought tears to my eyes! I wonder, did Graceland loan out Elvis' guitar and cloak for the tribute?
Love the comment - Always playing to a full house!
Thank you for sharing, if only for a while!
Brad, great avatar! Haven't seen this one before.;

Just pretend, I'm holding you, and whispering things soft and low.
And think of me, how it's gonna be and just pretend I didn't go

ELVIS.....BEHIND BLUE EYES....ALWAYS THE KING...
That was fantastic! What a tribute! The voices of Roy Orbison and Marguerite Piazza were so brilliant and the scene of the empty chair with the cape on it and the quitar aside was so touching. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us.
Goodbye Rosanne...Your "family" in TCB will always remember you.
Wow what a fireworks display!
