    I voted for years 1968-1969, but I also like 1970-1972. I think his voice and appearance
    were great.

    Talking

    Although the era of Elvis that made me the fan that I am, 1972, would usually be my first choice, I had to go with 1973 - 1974. The 'Elvis Recorded Live In Memphis Tennessee" album is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of what I loved about Elvis' -live- shows in the 70's. I love hearing Elvis sing songs that aren't considered #1's for him. (e.g. 'Let Me Be There', 'My Boy', 'What Now My Love', 'Help Me', etc.)

    And he was rockin' 1974 in my opinion. Just killer rockin'!

That South Bend show I could only listen to once...College Park, most people have heard about but I had to part ways with that FTD Dragonheart. Even if physically he was in far worse shape in '77, I would much rather listen to any show from his final year than that show.
    1974 was definitley a roller coaster and really when things were obvious Elvis was loosing control of his life, personally, and professionally.

    But I will say Dragon Heart is a favorite FTD of mine, you can tell he's on something that gave him an extra kick but I still enjoy the performanes, Midnight and Bridge, Mountain...Superb...imo...

    1955-1957, 1972-1976. But I'm very fond of the July 1975 shows for some reason...

    Re: Elvis In Concert - You Choose

    I voted for '68-'69 because I think that he looked his best and he found himself again after many years of not performing live. He expressed so much confidence again, he was so handsome that he could take your breath away.

    no joke

    When I was young I did appreciate all his different "looks" and styles. But I found most "resonance" (to formulate my thesis in such terms) with the last two years of his life, 'cause that's the way I felt. Most guys like me typically end up shooting bullets at school, but I didn't and that was my present for the world.
    all the goons I left behind,
    memories still linger..

    i would pick 69, but the real option should be 69-70, cuz he really didnt give any concerts in 68, xcept for the comeback special.

    I voted for 68 - 69, he looked best during those years. In the 50's he looked to cutie, young and sweet, in the 70's he started gaining weight. But 68 - he looked handsome, manly, just terrrrriffiicccc!
