2- If I Can Dream ('68 Comeback Special)
4- Suspicious Minds (TWWII)
3- An American Trilogy (Aloha)
5- My Way (CBS 77)
If you had a crowd of about 50 people and wanted to show them why you though elvis was the best performer ever, what 5 live performances would you show them?
Mine would be:
-Hound Dog-Berle 56'
-Stuck on you- Sanatra 60'
-Trying to get to you- 1st sit down show-68'
-Polk Salad Annie- Aug 11,70 -outtake
- American Troligy- Aloha 73'

Got my family, my kids, my books and my music, I'm good, yeah, I'm good.....
My Elvis best performance is :
1-Am i ready - Ed sullivan show
2-Mystery train/tiger man - TTWII
3-Can't help falling in love - Aloha from Hawaii
4-Bridge over troubled water - Elvis on tour
5-An amercian trilogy - Elvis on tour
I'd say:
1- Peace in the valley - Ready teddy (Ed Sullivan Show)
2- If I can dream - Saved or If you're looking for trouble ('68 Comeback Special)
4- Suspicious minds - Mystery train/Tiger man (TWWII)
3- An American trilogy - How great Thou art (Aloha)
5- My way - Unchained melody (CBS 77)
It's difficult thou, because there were many strong songs in all thse concerts.
I was also thinking about the shows with Milton Berle. They were often funny too.
Christel (TCE)
my way 77' is not that good, aloha is much better
Can't agree with that. My Way '77 is a much more emotionally-charged performance

I love buth but I agree with you...I've always seen that performance as the best...maybe because it's taken from his last tour
Hound Dog (Milton Berle Show)
I got a woman/Amen (Elvis On Tour)
I'll Remember You (Alternate Aloha Concert)
C.C Rider (the Elvis On Tour version or the Alternate Aloha one, both are cool!)
Peace In The Valley (Ed Sullivan Show)
Let the stars fade and fall, and I won't care at all, as long as I have you.
Elvis...
