video download: "Burning Love" from the On Tour Rehearsals

[Albert]

Hi friends,

With all the buzz on the internet about the "On Tour Rehearsals" dvd's, I thought it would be a nice thing to celebrate my 30th birthday with sharing some amazing footage.

This video shows us Elvis with the TCB-band and JD Sumner & The Stamps rehearsing "Burning Love". The sound and imagequality is really great. Hope everybody enjoys it.

HAPPY B-DAY! Thanks so very much for sharing this, it's so awesome some 30 plus years later to see unseen footage of the man who started it al and is still carrying the torch even in death!

Hope to pick up a copy of these if I can ever find them.

Thanks again
Greg

Works for me!

Thank you very much. A great video.

Unfortunately, when it comes to the content, you can tell that boy aint right. Elvis' very uninspired performance of "Burning Love" is a farcry from the happy, energetic and endlessly playful Elvis of "That's The Way It Is" -- just two years earlier. He's not the same man here. Not by a long shot. And it carries over into the thin singing. Elvis really didn't want to be doing this song. Ah well.

[emsteph]

I understood that Elvis really didn't like this song. Must have killed him to have it do so well on the charts and then have to sing it in concerts...although I'm glad he did because his version on Aloha is what made me a fan!!

One would think that he lacks energy as it is only a rehearsal/taping so perhaps the repetative nature of this was becoming boring.

Hardly, this was only a day or two after recording it!

[Indre]

Heyyyyy!!!??? Why do you guys say he didn't like this song? Was it written anywhere? it's the first time I hear he didn't like it that is extremely sad, because that is one of my very favorite songs of all times...and he looks extremely sexy in this video, my boy my boy, lol
Oh well....

Actually is it written in a book that he hated the song and didn't know why it became number 1. Ask Elvis friends, I got video somewhere in my library where Sonny, Red, and Lamar said they Elvis hated this song. He really hated how he sounded on this song.

Well, that's some striking news for me. And I've always thought he sounds great on that song. All versions that I have of it
