    Elvis Interview Wink Martindale

    and his Audobon Drive home. People think I've from the south when they've talked to me. This boy really was from the South and spoke accordingly.
    He was also very nervous and stuttered a lot. Of course, to me; that was just part of his charm. !

    This is great Cameron. I've never seen that much of the inside of the house and the interview with Wink was cute. Elvis really had a strong southern accent then.

    Is this the same interview we've seen with Elvis leaning over on a jukebox with his head cocked to the side chewing gum? I have to smile every time I see that one....don't know anyone else who was so unaffected and natural.

    Thank you for posting,

    Diane

    I can't prove it's the same interview .
    Just sounds like a much longer version. It's the "jukebox" clip I was looking for and found this one.
    Yes, you can certainly hear his strong southern accent here . He seems so young too. It was a much better time for him; but he seemed very nervous.

    I have relatives from the deep south. To talk to them on the phone is almost impossible. I keep sayong "huh"?? But they keep putting up with me.

    Great interview! I didn't realize that Wink was a southern boy until I saw
    the other Elvis/Wink interview!

    And I love Elvis' stuttering - it's charming - totally charming!


    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

    Cameron, I loved it! Great video and great interview, as well. I like his accent, too. I find it...sexy. I finally saw how this house was from inside. The old decoration...Thank you, Cameron! I also didn't know that Elvis' favorite song back then was "I was the One"! It is also one of my favorites!

    Awesome interview Cameron Thanks for sharing
    As for that accent of his Liana, I can't argue with you. Whoever said that his voice sounded like melted caramels was right!!!

    Yep, I was glad I found it . He was so young, innocent and ready to take on the world. I've seen many point out his words slurring, the stutterng, etc. What so many don't remember is; he always talked that way.
    He also forgot what he was going to say many times. It was just a part of him. When I first saw him, I commented on how nervous he always seemed.
    I've got a grandson like that . School is rough for him !
    There's many things we know today that we weren't aware of back then.
