This guy will gone down in history without a doubt you can't deny the facts he literally was at that place at that time brought Elvis Presley career back and showed the world why Elvis was a phenomenon he saw his raw talent and vulnerability and figured it out how to show it to the world cause at that point Elvis needed him to get him back to the top something the colonel failed at the colonel couldn't understand Elvis Artistically Wouldn't know what was the hit song or not it was all about the money he may have succeeded at that .but ignored Elvis on anything else Steve binder thank you and I guess God put you there to make sure his gift was giving ....
Good on to you make elvis 68 special well done 👏
Great interview. Ivor did a wonderful job just letting Steve talk & being respectful in that. And Steve's memory seems to be so sharp and not clouded by any revisionist-type sentiment. What a gift. Much respect & thanks to this channel!
What revisionist kind of sentiments would have changed it?

I'm in a huge library system that surprisingly finally bought a copy and so I reserved it. The online prices have come down by half since it was first published.
Great to know how much of this wonderful account was shown in the movie. I have seen a lot of comments saying the way it was shown wasn't true but it was actually only a little exaggerated for dramatic effect.
My dad also had a CHEVRON GAS STATION, IN THE EARLY 70s.
Thank you!
Love you, Steve. Your early life, which I've never heard before from you, reminds me a bit (except for your GOOD parents) of Blake Edwards' life.... Merry Xmas 2022. Happy belated 90th. Much love always.
I think that Steve Allen program was called : "Meeting of minds"

I could've done without hearing about the black leather pants and hair dryers. Too personal--and I don't believe that happened.
😂
My dad was a military police in air force. Would anyone know where my dad would of been stationed ? I can't remember
Parker was just an old carnie slug. Believe me I know, been there, done that. Unfortunately, I was just a very young teenager, but learned quite a bit. Sooo fake!!!
Ughhh yes I'm glad the recent movie shows that
Electric Youth ???
Danny Kay Great Guy 😳
Elvis sang blue Christmas in the tv show ?
Steve brings it up towards the middle, he said it turned out Elvis did do two Christmas songs.
No one told Steve that Scotty and DJ had been playing on the Movie Sound Tracks sessions the whole time until 1967.
@@Rock4UNow can you explain this?
@@kbanghart Because Steve made the comment that Elvis hadn't worked with Scotty & DJ in Years, no one corrected his statement but Scotty & DJ played on the majority of the Movie Soundtracks from 1960-1967, they were in the studio with Elvis.
Parker was one big joke E should kick Parker out on but should right then
