Heard Larry speak many times and have read his book on Elvis. One thing I can say is his story is always positive always speaks highly of Elvis, another thing is he never changes his story. True friends keep the secrets that should never be told and speak good of their friends as Larry speaks of Elvis.
I agree. Larry was very respectful and well spoken. So enriching to be able to view his talk about his legendary and iconic friend. ⭐️ 🕺🏽 #Singer #Healer The most visited home in American History.
Thank you Larry Geller - Elvis had a great friend in you & thank you for sharing your times with Elvis, who touched millions around the globe with his love for humanity !
I really enjoyed listening to Larry recalling his memories with Elvis and I believe he genuinely loved and cared for Elvis. Being a spiritual seeker myself I can fully relate to the need to read spiritual books and speak to like minded people with whom we resonate and who understand spirituality, it's like food for the soul. For me spirituality goes deeper that religion. I was brought up in the roman catholic church and was basically taught how to fear God and a lot of the teachings just didn't make sense. Spirituality teaches we are all one and God loves everyone equally and unconditionally.
Thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful intimate talk with Larry. It is of little surprise that such a beautiful, gentle, kind, honest, wise and compassionate man ended up as Elvis's best friend right til the end. I long for more movies to show Elvis as a humanitarian and lovely super human being and how he shaped modern culture and lives. His voice in unparalleled as was his talent. His life, heart and spirit will touch billions more throughout time. RIP Elvis, long live the King!
LARRY GELLER!!!! - What an amazing , sincere, loyal, loving and caring freind he was to ELVIS!!!! His Respect, Admiration And Great Love he had for Elvis is so evident. Larry`s recollections and times with Elvis are described so vividly you picture them so clearly in your mind. Thank you so much for uploading this truly GREAT!! Video. LARRY GELLER - LEGEND!!!! (A True Friend )
Thank You "Lawrence", It's taken me 40 Years To Find Peace Of Mind ,He Had A True Friend & Brother In You.I Have No Doubt You Fly On Earth As He Does In Heaven. God Bless
Elvis Presley was a gift, taken early from us.....perhaps his legacy is he prompts thoughts of be kind towards everyone regardless by his actions, there will only be one King...EP. Great video from a man close to Elvis.
What a wonderful journey you had with Elvis. It's remarkable how much he shared himself with you and you with him. That is a great friendship. Rest in the love of God Elvis.
Elvis was truly a very special person. And I deeply appreciate these personal stories of his life. I'll love him till I take my last breath. Thanks Larry.
Stunning..Thank you Larry for sharing your beautiful story with us. Your right Elvis is a healer thru his God given talent. He as lifted me several times
Lovely, Mr. Geller. Thank you for being so thoughtful, considerate and so very kind. God Bless You & Elvis Too !!! Loved & Remembered Always, "The Legend Elvis"
One of the most relaxing pleasures I've found is to listen to Larry Speak, his version of the truth of Elvis's Life seems so relaxing to hear how he came to be in Elvis's life. Thank you Larry,
Elvis was gaining knowledge and NOBODY was liking it. Same thing has happened to me. I would never read growing up. I been reading for about 10 years now and I am now 43 years of age but nobody has liked it a bit. Be your true self my people. Do it for YOU!
Thank you Larry. Anyone listening to you share your memories of your time with Elvis can tell that you loved the man very much indeed. You didn't sugar-coat things, you didn't disrespect him either. You shared your story in a very classy way and gave us an insight into the man that we may not have had. Thank you for caring about Elvis and for being there for him. So many took advantage of him, it seems like you actually loved and continue to love him. Thank you.
Now with this new Elvis movie coming out on Friday which I've already purchased my ticket for Friday June 24th a theater near my home yep yep yep I just want to say that whenever I hear Larry Geller you have a voice that seems very healing to me and and so I believe Elvis heard that genuine sincerity in your voice also besides knowing a little bit about the fact that you were in tune spiritually at the time and you shared with him and I thank you for that and to this day out of all the people who speak on UA-cam about Elvis I continue to go back some kind of gravitational Wii U the way I believe Elvis probably felt about you which I believe is he overall picture of how we are interconnected when we are in spiritual tune with God and one another if so know that I appreciate that you made this video and continue to be blessed by our God.
I feel same @Gwendolyn! I do not like the interviews of his mafia who carry on as if they were in love with the man. It gets weird. Larry is very different than the rest of the MM. I think it is why some of those guys didn’t like Mr. Geller. He was no professional groupie. He was an accomplished and very successful man in his own right well before Elvis. I think there was a certain respect between he and EP for that reason. The rest of the MM had only Elvis for a paycheck. Larry was well-off and was not dependent on EP financially. This was very good!
Gotta a lot of time for Larry - he wrote the best book I've ever read on Elvis he had real insight into his human and spiritual side. He was probably too smart to fit in with the memphis mafia and the Colonel and other people surrounding Elvis and they didn't get his interest in the higher things..the meaning of life and what it's all about.
I agree, Larry and Charlie Hodge put a lot of respect when they shared stories on Elvis ... the Memphis Mafia was not as spiritual nor as religious as Elvis was.. so they did not understand this quest until later on, ... and do you know some Elvis fans hates Larry too? A man they hardly know? Only from hearsay.. I once had a quite of a debate with one of so called biggest fan of Elvis who hated Larry.. she glorifying certain names but called Larry a weirdo.. I was offended, because who are we? judging a man we don't know. Elvis is not stupid..he knew people he chose to be in his life.. and this spiritual quest of Elvis is no surprise to me.. he grew up went to church and that's when he learned to sing, he sang gospel at his suite in Las Vegas ( the sin city) after his shows was over, his spirit is attuned with the Lord.. Larry simply stretched that spirituality even further , something that spark Elvis curiosity.. and probably what made Elvis even wiser.. Larry was one of the last person Elvis called on the phone and the last book Elvis read as he died was a book Larry given to . Larry was there to the last moment of Elvis's life when he did Elvis hair for the last time for the funeral.
@@dessy844 Tom Parker and Larry Geller were two of the WORST influences in Elvis's life. Elvis had a SOLID upbringing in the Assembly of God church. He knew Jesus as his Savior. That's ALL he needed until weirdo Larry Geller came along and fed him all that New Age bullshit.
nathan jordan i agree. He may have been curious as we all have been at some point in our lives but yet he couldn’t help but to return to his roots. Deep down Elvis knew that Jesus Christ was the only Way. He always reverted back to his faith and I believe today he is in heaven with Jesus.

Thank you very much for telling us about Elvis and his greatness , we will love him for ever , all of us know he was such a amazing human been with the beautiful voice and he lives for ever❤🇨🇦
I was at the Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway for the filming of this documentary with Larry Geller and it was amazing! Larry is a great, emotional story teller and he truly was a good friend to Elvis.
I didn’t say he was at his honeymoon or wedding. I said that this documentary with Larry Geller was filmed at the Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway in Palm Springs and I was there.
Larry Geller, was a hairdresser, hanger-on of celebrities, his business catered to a celebrity clientele. Larry attempted to have a career as an ACTOR....of course he can sound sincere.
@@darlenedeluca8533 some of his stories don't add up, but no doubt he cared about Elvis, but some of his stories are exaggerated and some, well other witnesses say different things
Larry tried to pull some garbage on elvis once tried to withhold spiritual books from elvis as a power trip manipulation and Elvis was on to him right away - I’m not discrediting his stories but he is just a man and he is just writing the books telling the stories to earn his living just like everyone else
He knows much more but does NOT TELL US....re. EP's heavy dugabuse...! Liquid heroine that Stanley boy did TELL press/media. Story re watching AZ clouds is also OLD OLD OLD....really....
Man alive I’m not very spiritual and people all hear of storys yet this bloke has an amazing story and has passion too he is a legend in his own right.
MAN THIS IS SIMPLY A BEAUTIFUL STORY TOLD FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE . I MYSELF HAVE SHARED IN THE SPIRITUAL QUESTION OF MY LIFE ,AND MANY ANSWERS I HAVE RECEIVED FROM GOD AND HOW I SHOULD LIVE MY LIFE . THIS VIDEO HAS REAWAKEN MY SPIRIT TO THE ALMIGHTY THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO -AJGHERTS2-.
I purchased Geller's book, 'Leaves of Elvis's Garden' and it is a very good book. Geller seems narcissistic and a little self-aggrandizing but I believe his stories. If you're an Elvis fan, you will like Geller's book.
Wow, I can relate to Elvis so much. A truth seeker myself, learning this now is just amazing. 29 minutes into this video, when Elvis asked why he hasn’t experienced the divine light, I would’ve told him, “you already do shine”. He’s always had that divine light shining out of him. He just didn’t know it. Sometimes it seems as soon as we find out that we do shine, our ego uses it in ways that diminish it. Letting go of the egos lies and just allowing the light to shine is part of the journey. Although I am devastated that Elvis left us so soon, I am so grateful for the story that Larry shared with us. We will each take from it what we need, to let go of whatever holds us in the darkness. 🙏🏻💕🌻
Please let me say, that it is up to one self to believe in what, you feel that give you strength to live your life. Elvis is to me a person that i love for his musical performance, he was/ is still the king of rock´n roll to me. I have been singing karaoke for 25 years, and many people say to me, hey you sound like Elvis in your own way. Okay that´s okay with me, but i sing with love to Elvis his songs, but to me there is only one Elvis Presley. This documentary tells Larry Geller´s story with Elvis, and that is his experience, and that is what we all shall respect. so forget that about Elvis being a God, he was an brilliant performer and he was an talented musician .
Larry has so many stories to tell about his time with Elvis. I'm so glad that they crossed paths again later when Larry was a hair stylist. I'm sure they talked about many spiritual topics. I know some of the members of the Memphis Mafia did not understand what Larry and Elvis' relationship was really about but Larry opened up Elvis' mind and that did not shake Elvis' faith. God bless Larry. He was good for Elvis.
I love this story, it’s so truthfully and amnesty ,,, Mr Larry You are the one a big Friend of Elvis Presley, You the One telling us the truth, how was in private life normal and stable, thank You so much,,,🍎
Elvis Presley made a comparative study of religions but remained a Christian. Larry Geller is an interesting man with Elvis Presley stories as he knew him.
So much unnecessary negativity fills this comment section below. Larry Gellar is clearly speaking from his heart when he reminisces about his private moments with The King. He wasn't trying to steer Elvis into any one specific direction but rather expose him to all the varied beacons of light in the world so that Elvis could safely make his own way through the haze that his life had become. To think that Larry was the last person to ever talk to Elvis the night before he passed away as well as the last person to ever touch him at the closing of Elvis' casket is amazing in itself. I can tell that Mr. Gellar is a sincere, spiritual person who no doubt helped Elvis to become the best version of himself . Larry was truly touched by an angel that first day he ever meant Elvis as young boy. May the King rest in peace for all of time and eternity. Thank you so much Larry for sharing over 90 minutes of your anecdotal experiences from your days with Elvis. Your stories truly touched me. You had me crying and laughing at the same time. Than You, Thank You, Thank You. And don't listen to these haters below. Like Elvis said, "the cream always floats to the top." MD
Gus W of course he's loving every moment of it! Must've been a great time in his life! Sure maybe some things are embellished but you can also tell the man has a heart and wants to share HIS story of his time with Elvis! This man has nothing to gain by being "fake!" People are always gonna contact him for his story just because he spent so much time with Elvis. You're allowed to have your opinion just don't understand the negativity about him

@@tommyhaan6035 The point is that if you cannot tell his mettle you're blind to it. I'm not and I'm pointing it out. That man is a total sham and obviously embellishing.
I have always enjoyed hearing Larry talk about his time with Elvis. It's easy to notice the woman with black hair and all the tattoos sitting next to Larry and listening to his stories. I just noticed that those are tattoos of Elvis. That is an Elvis fan.
Thank you 🙏 Larry, and you did what you had to do, thank you so very much for sharing Elvis with the rest of the world. That was just so very memorable. I am so glad I came across this vid. Xx.
This is great to hear Elvis stories! Whether some are true or not it's still interesting . Just take Larry lightly, he is a soul in search for the truth just like the rest of us.
@@kathy-t5qthat doesn’t mean he is not lying? He’s very good at it. He said he talked to Elvis the night he died and he was wearing a jumpsuit with a big belt. Everyone knows Elvis was not wearing that?! He was dressed in a jogging suit the night before he died. Pictures prove it. Larry is a liar. He didn’t do Elvis’ hair when he died. JD Sumner said he and Charlie did his hair. JD would not lie. He was a man of INTEGRITY and GOD!
They were meant to have their paths cross and Elvis didn't shrug that boy off that ran up to him and said hi I'm so glad Elvis was helped on his personal journey Thank you Larry You both were blessed and we reap the benefits
What a wonderful thing to say Angels fly so lightly and I believe I feel very strongly that Larry Geller and Elvis Presley are angels and then we the ones that recognize Angelic qualities Among Us are also part of it... it is like a large source coming from a knowledgeable place recognizes us and gives knowledge which we recognize and connect to a dynamic and one another
Oops I meant to say the whole quote in the former text... the last words Elvis said to Larry Geller wera... and you fly because they take themselves so lightly!
Just like John Wilkerson (think that’s his name). He told EP he didn’t know how to play guitar when he was 9. Years later EP saw him and said Aren’t you the guy who told me i could not play guitar. He said yes lol. EP hired him for band. It was meant to be. Just like w Larry.
Wow what a story. I will go visit Graceland this story was awesome. Thanks Larry and for taking care of Elvis when he was here. Hope to get your book soon.
Larry, I believe you know that yes GOD arranged your meet with Elvis. He needed and deserved an angel, human form in his life and he has that in you. Yes you were blessed to have all those wonderful years with Elvis. Larry, Elvis was blessed just as much by you being there for him. I think Elvis found the brother he lost in you. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of the king's life. I love you Larry because I feel such love coming straight from your soul.
Woow thank you for sharing those chapters of Elvis life..your spirit seem so gentle Larry beautiful angelic spirit ...Elvis is an amazing entertainer he brought a lot of people happiness and joy..god is good for being you both together that was one of your purposes in life to be guiding Elvis through his life's journey .. never stop celebrating Elvis continue to keep his legacy alive 😍🤩🤗👍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
@@rcharest3500 really? He was born and raised in the south, so why wouldn’t he favor his birthplace over California? It’s understandable that he would be homesick and want to be where it was familiar to him, I was born and raised in California and I have grown to hate this wretched state myself, I don’t blame Elvis one bit for not liking it here
Oh, Elvis, WE DID GET YOU. In was all in your voice and in your eyes, and for some strange reason we could see your spirit. Larry Geller was a good kind and loyal friend to Elvis. Thank you so much for this video.
Every night when I listen to Elvis hymns , the songs are so beautifully sung and spiritual that I peacefully drift off to sleep a handsome gifted person
What ever you may think or try to deduce from this story Larry Geller spoke from his heart about a remarkable human being called Elvis Presley. God is love and so is all.There is nothing outside of ourselves
What you are seeing is an incredible acting job by someone who once wanted to be an actor and is disgusted with themselves that they ended up being just a gay hairdresser instead. I'm sure Elvis would have never let this man touch him if he had any idea how he would turn out.
Serena Twilite The Memphis Maphia accused Larry of being gay back then He didnt deny it The MM didn't like him trying to fill Elvis head with nonsense & Elvis didn't need Larry trying to steer him away from his Christian beliefs
People are so judgemental, it is written judge not or be judged. I don't justify sin. But we are not God. And God is the only one that knows someone's heart.
@@serenatwilite4005 There's no reason to think Larry himself ever wanted to be an actor. There's also no reason to think Larry is/was gay. He's been married twice; for many years to his second wife.
You know, I am an Elvis fan, and I have been since I was a boy. I'm 55, so I'm not from his generation, but I love the music. Having said that, I am not a fanatic, and I recognize the tragedy and the toll taken on Elvis, and everyone Elvis loved, his family, and the people who lived with him, and who loved him personally. But I have to be honest here. I look at these people, and thousands of others just like these people who worship Elvis, and after all these years are still obsessed with Elvis, as if he were God. I just find it sad. This goes beyond loving the memory of a truly talented, extremely charismatic, generous and kind hearted man. It's sad. I hope this doesn't come off as mean spirited, because that is not the intent. I just feel that these people after all these years are retelling stories, and each and every word, every detail over and over and over. And I see these people, and so many more who had never met Elvis and I see them hanging on every word, every story, riveted and excited at the water flying off his head and hitting someone as if they were in the presence of God. Elvis was a Christian man, until he met Larry who introduced Elvis new age nonsense, and convinced Elvis, who was in a state of deep depression, and seriously addicted to pain killers, and in that state Larry convinced Elvis that he was one of the "ascended masters" and took Elvis away from the Lord. This kind of reverence is not what Elvis would want, there are many stories of Elvis being tired of being "worshipped" like this. He was a humble man until the drugs got. I have great respect for the people who were truly close to Elvis like Sony, and Red West, both departed now, and those few close friends, and family who were with him from the beginning and right to the end. None of those true friends had anything good to say about Larry. I just find the whole thing sad. Jack
I agree with you Bronzesnake. There are stories that have been confirmed that Elvis' inner circle chased off Larry G. They didn't want the nonsense of his so called religion to mess with Elvis. They all knew Elvis was not well in many different ways.
All the hangers on are just making money out of obsessive fan's, it wasn't that long after his death before they all started cashing in on him, None had a bad word to say really as the last thing they wanted to do was upset the crazy fan's, and the first thing they wanted was to make money out of him. You could say that in a way the hangers on is what kept his legacy going for so long, all those that knew him giving tv, magazine interviews, writing books, giving talks etc. It's popular to Hate Tom Parker yet more money has been made out of Elvis since he died than Parker ever made out of him whilst he was alive, and in all Fairness he was just his manager, he found him work and arranged appearences etc, no reason why someones manager should care deeply for their client on a personal level. My manager at work provides me with work does less than me and earns more than me, pretty damn sure they don't spend any time worrying about me on a personal level, only concerned that I do my work properly so they can do theirs and get paid. Larry was a Hairdresser to the stars who then became a full time hairdresser for Elvis, plus a friend, he was certainly paid very well with plenty of perks such as new cars, expensive gifts and so on, Yet Still tries to make money out of him decades after he died, the crazed fans Allow this to happen. If a dozen people are happy to pay 25 bucks " or whatever it costs" to listen to someone talk about a dead person for an hour and possibly buy their book you can't blame them really
I agree. I do think that Elvis returned to God. I believe he always knew truth but did recognize the supernatural phenomenon this guy was into. The true friends ran this guy out and Elvis was reading the shroud of Turin when he died. Searching for the face of Jesus. It’s Not by mistake he was reading that Book he knew the Truth.
I agree 100% I too am 55, and followed Wlvis as a fan since I was 5. I also grew up in church, and gave my heart to Jesys Christ. Jesus is the Truth, the Life, and the Way. No one comes to the father, except thru him. Elvis was very vulnerable at the time he met Larry. Searching for answers. I believe Larry was a huge detriment to his spiritual growth. He led him astray. I believe if Elvis missed the boat, it was because of Larry's false doctrine. There us only one way to God, and that is thru Jesus Christ. Not all these detours that Larry was offering him.
You can't take anybody away from the lord by teaching him how to relax. That us what meditation does, calms you down, like an exercise. But, its all mental, you start to learn to respect your body, control your breathing to calm you. If you are in meditation you are asked to think of good thoughts, not bad ones, cuz, you won't get to the meditation state. Maybe you should try it one day, with a person to teach you, how to enter meditation. I feel you will think different. It's just a suggestion😉
this is why the others didn't care for him very much sadly. he was there for elvis , jst when he needed larry , elvis had a thirst for spirituality and none of the others had any interest in that type of thing . who else was elvis going to speak to about it and who would share this interest with him ? ! larry never forced it on him elvis asked him wat he was about ! larry said he was searching elvis asked him to bring the knowledge to him and he did . i see no reason to disbelieve him he is consistent every time he talks about elvis he had that something only he & elvis shared and larry had that to enjoy of his time with elvis his whole life
So sad! Larry was the one true friend Elvis had in his life. ALL of the others in Elvis' inner circle didn't care about Elvis. Elvis was a money machine to them and that's all they care about - the damn money! Elvis was looking to free his spirit, and Larry was the one who could help Elvis do that. They didn't want Elvis to free himself - especially Parker! Just as Elvis was about to have a break through and shake things up, his tired unhealthy body gave out and he collapsed of a heart attack. So tragic ad very sad. Thank you Larry for being the decent, caring you are, and for being Elvis' one true friend when he really needed you. May God bless you! Thank you Elvis for sharing yourself, your talent -- and your soul - with the world. RIP!
Larry Geller, What a beautiful, wonderful job you did talking about the Real Elvis Presley. I shed tears of sorrow and I smiled from the inside out listening to you and watching you almost glow with divine love and light for your friend and spiritual brother, ElvisYou truly love him and he undoubtedly loved you withall of his beautiful heart. I wish you every blessing Larry Geller.
Larry. This was such a touching tribute and accounts of who Elvis was and who you are!!! I was a hair dresser at one time in my life and this takes me back to what my clients used to tell me! Naturally God was first but next to their Dr. Me as their hairdresser was next in line of importance! Larry I would truly like to read some of the books you have written! Thank you for sharing these private moments you had with Elvis! May you always be Blessed! ❤
Elvis don't heal... Jesus Does! Elvis would not want people to look at him as a god. He knew he had a gift from GOD! He was just needed some TRUE GUIDANCE!
You missed the whole point. He never compared Elvis to Jesus. He simply talked about Elvis 's life and who he really was. Even Elvis himself did not consider himself a king. Elvis never said he was a healer.
The are so true-the only true.WE have litlle now,here in the word.But we have JESUS and God,want and do so Elvis to sing about THE LORD IN UNIVERSE.Fore he know he and only him can .Give real love fore Jesus and God ,just with him selv and love to the people fore people.He live with Jesus and God,now.But,he are still with use.
I think Elvis's crew didn't understand this guy because he was inquisitive and interested in learning all he can while he is alive. Most of the crew were more typical American men who didn't even realize just how clueless they were about the world, it's different cultures and all the unanswered questions. I respect people who are not content and who insist on learning more. Elvis was a bright guy and it doesn't surprise me that he wasn't satisfied with his education. He knew there was much to learn and he wanted answers
@@rustyruss2962 Say just out of curiosity, on just what exactly do you base this opinion of yours on? I mean have you ever met Larry Geller or know him personally? Were you there during the years of his and Elvis Presley's lives/relationship? Because if the answer is no on either one, then you don't have the slightest clue what your talking about.
@@SultanOfTwang1956 just all videos and hearing him talk Iknow the world we live in now don’t want people have there on opinion I did say it’s my personal OPINION
@@rustyruss2962 You along with everyone else on the face of this planet is obviously more than free and welcome to have their own personal belief system and opinions, and mine is simply that since you've never met the man (Larry Geller) and were not there in his and Elvis's lives/relationship, that you don't know what you're talking about.
He's still making money from Elvis...here purporting having been Elvis' spiritual guide...maybe he could have guided him away from the drugs that killed him. I read one of Geller's books. Totally self-serving.
@@kevinbarry4325 Is that the same Joe who sued Elvis because of a failed business venture? This is after Elvis bought him a house and made him best man @ his wedding.
your face i believe this man brought confusion in elvis life. I truly believe Elvis returned to God before his death. He knew truth and you cannot get away from what you know in your heart.
I believe Larry really loved Elvis , but don't hear much about the greatest book ever written the Bible!!!!!all these books he was giving him confused him. He didn't know what to believe in . All he needed was God!!!
I don’t agree with this that these books Larry gave him confused him, because Elvis was a very intelligent man and he already knew the Bible. Some people just don’t like anyone especially someone famous to read other very good books, like the Quran. And you have to know which books are they in the first place. Does it have to be only one book the bible people should it.And people who read the bible should know other great books too. What’s in the book that’s what matters.
@@PauloPereira-jj4jv agreed when Elvis would get into the new age hocus pocus stuff the guys would be flat out like, I don’t believe that stuff and cut him short (very good for Elvis to hear grounded truth like that from his friends) but geller was not liked by the other guys they called him the guru he encouraged elvis in all that garbage - new age stuff - Elvis got very out of touch. New age was popular in California around that time it was a fad seek the real God you will be glad you did He is near to all of us when we seek him with all our heart don’t run after the things in this world
Thank you Larry or your wonderful love, respect, true friendship and wonderful true stories from your life with Elvis. It is very clear why he wanted you in his life.
I enjoyed this. This is the 2nd interview I'v heard, when they were not focusing on the negative parts of Elvis. The one thing I didn't agree with... Elvis didn't enjoy making the movies. But overall, a nice interview. Thanks for sharing. :)
Elvis went to many different churches in the early 60's. He stopped at a Church of Christ, one night. My sister's father in law was preaching and saw Elvis come in and sit on the back pew... he didn't give Elvis away. Elvis got up and left before the service was over. He was one of a kind!
@@jessiem276 True. When he moved to California to do movies he visited and was open to other denominations. But the fact is he was raised Pentecostal. Most Pentecostal preachers and singers moved around just like E. did. That's where he learned it.
@@dr.know-it-all5148 Yes, I had read that he was Pentecostal. Is that kind of like the Church of God? I think the church he visited was around Fort Payne, Alabama. My sister's father in law, said, he came in that night after the services had started, sat there and listened very closely..then left before the closing song. Another older man saw him, too, but..didn't say anything...until later. Those were smaller "country" churches.
Larry Geller you are an inspiration.i am an Elvis fan.i am a Larry Geller fan as well.great story's.and it's nice for someone to spend 90 minutes without being negative about Elvis.elvis is a master peice.well said mate.
Thank-you Larry for this video. When I die there will be Elvis's Gospel music at my funeral. This is what I want. Also I listen to his music everyday.
I wish he was still here. It's hard to believe he is no longer with us.
I’m doing the same thing certain songs at my funeral from Elvis singing them
At my funeral also
Heard Larry speak many times and have read his book on Elvis. One thing I can say is his story is always positive always speaks highly of Elvis, another thing is he never changes his story. True friends keep the secrets that should never be told and speak good of their friends as Larry speaks of Elvis.

Steve Alonso well said
he is just this amazing spiritual being, I always go back to his kindness & music
I really enjoyed listening to Larry recalling his memories with Elvis and I believe he genuinely loved and cared for Elvis. Being a spiritual seeker myself I can fully relate to the need to read spiritual books and speak to like minded people with whom we resonate and who understand spirituality, it's like food for the soul. For me spirituality goes deeper that religion. I was brought up in the roman catholic church and was basically taught how to fear God and a lot of the teachings just didn't make sense. Spirituality teaches we are all one and God loves everyone equally and unconditionally.

Larry Geller was Truly a Real Friend to Elvis Not Like Those Other Hoarders That Were Given Houses
Enjoyed watching this interesting man tell stories about Elvis, thanks for posting.
Elvis Presley was a gift, taken early from us.....perhaps his legacy is he prompts thoughts of be kind towards everyone regardless by his actions, there will only be one King...EP. Great video from a man close to Elvis.
I didn't think at first I was going to listen. But man every ounce of your being was right there with Elvis & Larry!
Outstanding!
i was hooked start to end
What a wonderful journey you had with Elvis. It's remarkable how much he shared himself with you and you with him. That is a great friendship. Rest in the love of God Elvis.
Thank so much for sharing this video, thanks Larry for telling about Elvis Presley to us, love it!
Elvis was truly a very special person. And I deeply appreciate these personal stories of his life. I'll love him till I take my last breath. Thanks Larry.
Stunning..Thank you Larry for sharing your beautiful story with us. Your right Elvis is a healer thru his God given talent. He as lifted me several times
Larry was so cool. He always has nice things to say about the King. He really enjoyed this interview.
Who are you referring to that really enjoyed this interview??
Elvis????
Did you want him to speak bad things...? 😂
I think he meant Larry enjoyed giving the interview.
Lovely, Mr. Geller. Thank you for being so thoughtful, considerate and so very kind. God Bless You & Elvis Too !!! Loved & Remembered Always, "The Legend Elvis"
This is the best,hands down video about Elvis. Larry is a gem!
Such amazing stories! Larry, thank you. Susan. 😊
One of the most relaxing pleasures I've found is to listen to Larry Speak, his version of the truth of Elvis's Life seems so relaxing to hear how he came to be in Elvis's life. Thank you Larry,
I always like larrys stories, he's always very animated, friendly, and spiritual. I see why elvis talked to him for hours. Live the vid!
Elvis was gaining knowledge and NOBODY was liking it. Same thing has happened to me. I would never read growing up. I been reading for about 10 years now and I am now 43 years of age but nobody has liked it a bit. Be your true self my people. Do it for YOU!
I’m so amazed at Larry’s story telling of Elvis ... I will definitely look for his books !
Thank you Larry. Anyone listening to you share your memories of your time with Elvis can tell that you loved the man very much indeed.
You didn't sugar-coat things, you didn't disrespect him either. You shared your story in a very classy way and gave us an insight into the man that we may not have had.
Thank you for caring about Elvis and for being there for him.
So many took advantage of him, it seems like you actually loved and continue to love him.
Thank you.
Now with this new Elvis movie coming out on Friday which I've already purchased my ticket for Friday June 24th a theater near my home yep yep yep I just want to say that whenever I hear Larry Geller you have a voice that seems very healing to me and and so I believe Elvis heard that genuine sincerity in your voice also besides knowing a little bit about the fact that you were in tune spiritually at the time and you shared with him and I thank you for that and to this day out of all the people who speak on UA-cam about Elvis I continue to go back some kind of gravitational Wii U the way I believe Elvis probably felt about you which I believe is he overall picture of how we are interconnected when we are in spiritual tune with God and one another if so know that I appreciate that you made this video and continue to be blessed by our God.
Gellers stories put me to sleep the other guys can tell stories that are way better
I feel same @Gwendolyn! I do not like the interviews of his mafia who carry on as if they were in love with the man. It gets weird. Larry is very different than the rest of the MM. I think it is why some of those guys didn’t like Mr. Geller. He was no professional groupie. He was an accomplished and very successful man in his own right well before Elvis. I think there was a certain respect between he and EP for that reason. The rest of the MM had only Elvis for a paycheck. Larry was well-off and was not dependent on EP financially. This was very good!
@@langyd4518 yes I have to agree that he does go on..lol
@@langyd4518 THE OTHER GUYS ARE FOUL MOUTHS!!!!!!! THATS WHY YOU DONT FALL ASLEEP!!!!
So touching to hear about your wonderful relationship with Elvis. Seems the two of you had a deep, spiritual bond.
Gotta a lot of time for Larry - he wrote the best book I've ever read on Elvis he had real insight into his human and spiritual side. He was probably too smart to fit in with the memphis mafia and the Colonel and other people surrounding Elvis and they didn't get his interest in the higher things..the meaning of life and what it's all about.
I agree, Larry and Charlie Hodge put a lot of respect when they shared stories on Elvis ... the Memphis Mafia was not as spiritual nor as religious as Elvis was.. so they did not understand this quest until later on, ... and do you know some Elvis fans hates Larry too? A man they hardly know? Only from hearsay.. I once had a quite of a debate with one of so called biggest fan of Elvis who hated Larry.. she glorifying certain names but called Larry a weirdo.. I was offended, because who are we? judging a man we don't know. Elvis is not stupid..he knew people he chose to be in his life.. and this spiritual quest of Elvis is no surprise to me.. he grew up went to church and that's when he learned to sing, he sang gospel at his suite in Las Vegas ( the sin city) after his shows was over, his spirit is attuned with the Lord.. Larry simply stretched that spirituality even further , something that spark Elvis curiosity.. and probably what made Elvis even wiser.. Larry was one of the last person Elvis called on the phone and the last book Elvis read as he died was a book Larry given to . Larry was there to the last moment of Elvis's life when he did Elvis hair for the last time for the funeral.
@@dessy844 great comment
AMEN!
@@dessy844 Tom Parker and Larry Geller were two of the WORST influences in Elvis's life. Elvis had a SOLID upbringing in the Assembly of God church. He knew Jesus as his Savior. That's ALL he needed until weirdo Larry Geller came along and fed him all that New Age bullshit.
GOSPEL MUSIC IS THE REAL Elvis!
nathan jordan i agree. He may have been curious as we all have been at some point in our lives but yet he couldn’t help but to return to his roots. Deep down Elvis knew that Jesus Christ was the only Way. He always reverted back to his faith and I believe today he is in heaven with Jesus.
Nobody sings How Great Thou Art like Elvis.

I'm glad I stumbled on this. I'm always watching about. Elvis performance. This tells you of the real Elvis
Thank you so much for sharing and heartfelt thanks to Larry for everything he has done for Elvis❤
Absolutely extraordinary! Thank you very much for this!
Maybe Elvis' wasn't a 'healer', but he did make a lot of people feel very good.
Elvis Presley is forever the King of rock and roll
Thank you very much for telling us about Elvis and his greatness , we will love him for ever , all of us know he was such a amazing human been with the beautiful voice and he lives for ever❤🇨🇦
I was at the Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway for the filming of this documentary with Larry Geller and it was amazing! Larry is a great, emotional story teller and he truly was a good friend to Elvis.
I want to meet him
Larry wasn’t at their honeymoon! Not at their wedding!
I didn’t say he was at his honeymoon or wedding. I said that this documentary with Larry Geller was filmed at the Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway in Palm Springs and I was there.
I think truly if Elvis had a close friend it would be Larry, the sincerity in his voice speaks volumes, the guy seams to have really loved him.
Larry Geller, was a hairdresser, hanger-on of celebrities, his business catered to a celebrity clientele. Larry attempted to have a career as an ACTOR....of course he can sound sincere.
I agree w/ u ! & I think Larry was a close & grt friend 4 our Elvis ! TCB & TLC xx oo ! 100 % ! 💕🤘🙏!
@@darlenedeluca8533 some of his stories don't add up, but no doubt he cared about Elvis, but some of his stories are exaggerated and some, well other witnesses say different things
@@shable1436
Exactly. He's just a story-teller. Elvis had no real friends when he was alive.
Larry tried to pull some garbage on elvis once tried to withhold spiritual books from elvis as a power trip manipulation and Elvis was on to him right away - I’m not discrediting his stories but he is just a man and he is just writing the books telling the stories to earn his living just like everyone else
He knows we know about the drug abuse, but he doesn't focus on that. He focuses on the vivid memories & I'm so grateful he shared with us.
He knows much more but does NOT TELL US....re. EP's heavy dugabuse...! Liquid heroine that Stanley boy did TELL press/media.
Story re watching AZ clouds is also OLD OLD OLD....really....
Man alive I’m not very spiritual and people all hear of storys yet this bloke has an amazing story and has passion too he is a legend in his own right.
Larry is a amazing man and amazing speaker I love ❤️ listening to him I need to find his book
very beautiful Larry, Thank you so much!!! You are very especial person too.
MAN THIS IS SIMPLY A BEAUTIFUL STORY TOLD FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE . I MYSELF HAVE SHARED IN THE SPIRITUAL QUESTION OF MY LIFE ,AND MANY ANSWERS I HAVE RECEIVED FROM GOD AND HOW I SHOULD LIVE MY LIFE . THIS VIDEO HAS REAWAKEN MY SPIRIT TO THE ALMIGHTY THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO -AJGHERTS2-.
What a beautiful documentary!!
larry was an loving inspiration to elvis..something elvis needed...good on you larry
I purchased Geller's book, 'Leaves of Elvis's Garden' and it is a very good book. Geller seems narcissistic and a little self-aggrandizing but I believe his stories. If you're an Elvis fan, you will like Geller's book.
Ive researched alot of Gellers stories and statements. He's wrong ALOT, and he highly exagerates his roll in Elvis's life.
And I see him Very Very Humble wanting to really share Elvis w us
😲😳😶🧐🤔
@@1980bwc I think many of those guys exaggerated but I do respect Larry because he at least didn’t live off EP the way the others did.
Yes, I'll be able to see through the bullshit of Larry's book.
Wow, I can relate to Elvis so much. A truth seeker myself, learning this now is just amazing. 29 minutes into this video, when Elvis asked why he hasn’t experienced the divine light, I would’ve told him, “you already do shine”. He’s always had that divine light shining out of him. He just didn’t know it. Sometimes it seems as soon as we find out that we do shine, our ego uses it in ways that diminish it. Letting go of the egos lies and just allowing the light to shine is part of the journey. Although I am devastated that Elvis left us so soon, I am so grateful for the story that Larry shared with us. We will each take from it what we need, to let go of whatever holds us in the darkness. 🙏🏻💕🌻
Please let me say, that it is up to one self to believe in what, you feel that give you strength to live your life. Elvis is to me a person that i love for his musical performance, he was/ is still the king of rock´n roll to me. I have been singing karaoke for 25 years, and many people say to me, hey you sound like Elvis in your own way. Okay that´s okay with me, but i sing with love to Elvis his songs, but to me there is only one Elvis Presley. This documentary tells Larry Geller´s story with Elvis, and that is his experience, and that is what we all shall respect. so forget that about Elvis being a God, he was an brilliant performer and he was an talented musician .
Thank you Larry, God Bless.
You right about that, God is love, and I know Elvis belived in God. Larry you are a true friend to Elvis.
Larry has so many stories to tell about his time with Elvis. I'm so glad that they crossed paths again later when Larry was a hair stylist. I'm sure they talked about many spiritual topics. I know some of the members of the Memphis Mafia did not understand what Larry and Elvis' relationship was really about but Larry opened up Elvis' mind and that did not shake Elvis' faith. God bless Larry. He was good for Elvis.
I love this story, it’s so truthfully and amnesty ,,, Mr Larry You are the one a big Friend of Elvis Presley, You the One telling us the truth, how was in private life normal and stable, thank You so much,,,🍎
Elvis Presley made a comparative study of religions but remained a Christian. Larry Geller is an interesting man with Elvis Presley stories as he knew him.
yes and thats HOW Elvis made Heaven, trusting LORD JESUS by faith!!
YEPP....ELVIS WAS RASIED RIGHT....HE KNEW GOD....
@@jacquelineloveselvis How would you know
Intelligent people do. Thomas Jefferson read everything to understand other cultures.

I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU ELVIS ❤
I Love Elvis So Much😊💕
Thank you Larry for being a Great friend to Elvis❤️
Thank You Larry, enjoyed hearing about stories of Elvis and his close friends.
Larry speaks so eloquently about Elvis. He surely fulfills Elvis’s request of him to tell people who he really was! Thank you, Larry! God bless you.
larry love your take on elvis and the experiences you shared
Wonderful! I really enjoyed listening to this. Thank you Larry!
So much unnecessary negativity fills this comment section below. Larry Gellar is clearly speaking from his heart when he reminisces about his private moments with The King. He wasn't trying to steer Elvis into any one specific direction but rather expose him to all the varied beacons of light in the world so that Elvis could safely make his own way through the haze that his life had become. To think that Larry was the last person to ever talk to Elvis the night before he passed away as well as the last person to ever touch him at the closing of Elvis' casket is amazing in itself. I can tell that Mr. Gellar is a sincere, spiritual person who no doubt helped Elvis to become the best version of himself . Larry was truly touched by an angel that first day he ever meant Elvis as young boy. May the King rest in peace for all of time and eternity. Thank you so much Larry for sharing over 90 minutes of your anecdotal experiences from your days with Elvis. Your stories truly touched me. You had me crying and laughing at the same time.
Than You, Thank You, Thank You. And don't listen to these haters below. Like Elvis said, "the cream always floats to the top."

Gus W are you miserable or what?
Gus W of course he's loving every moment of it! Must've been a great time in his life! Sure maybe some things are embellished but you can also tell the man has a heart and wants to share HIS story of his time with Elvis! This man has nothing to gain by being "fake!" People are always gonna contact him for his story just because he spent so much time with Elvis. You're allowed to have your opinion just don't understand the negativity about him
@@tommyhaan6035 The point is that if you cannot tell his mettle you're blind to it. I'm not and I'm pointing it out. That man is a total sham and obviously embellishing.
Cool! Nice chat
Larry is lovely man!!! Greeting from Macedonia
I met Larry in 1973 spoke with him a few times he was the nicest man I really liked him
I want SO bad to meet him.
I have always enjoyed hearing Larry talk about his time with Elvis. It's easy to notice the woman with black hair and all the tattoos sitting next to Larry and listening to his stories. I just noticed that those are tattoos of Elvis. That is an Elvis fan.
Thank you 🙏 Larry, and you did what you had to do, thank you so very much for sharing Elvis with the rest of the world. That was just so very memorable. I am so glad I came across this vid. Xx.
This is great to hear Elvis stories! Whether some are true or not it's still interesting .
Just take Larry lightly, he is a soul in search for the truth just like the rest of us.
Thank you for sharing this with me
Yeah ,a lot he seemed to make up as he went.
@@livewithnickno. He has been telling same stories since time and memorial. He is not a liar
@@kathy-t5qthat doesn’t mean he is not lying? He’s very good at it. He said he talked to Elvis the night he died and he was wearing a jumpsuit with a big belt. Everyone knows Elvis was not wearing that?! He was dressed in a jogging suit the night before he died. Pictures prove it. Larry is a liar. He didn’t do Elvis’ hair when he died. JD Sumner said he and Charlie did his hair. JD would not lie. He was a man of INTEGRITY and GOD!
Enjoyed ! A totally different perspective. Thanks, Larry ! ❤
Larry is the best!! Such a gifted speaker. Story teller. ❤
He was Elvis's hair dresser..Elvis had beautiful hair and eyes and had all this charm about him..
I wonder if Larry was the one who put a wig on Elvis to make his hair look fuller?
@@shannonglynice1142 Elvis in a wig. You've got to be kidding. That did not happen.
They were meant to have their paths cross and Elvis didn't shrug that boy off that ran up to him and said hi
I'm so glad Elvis was helped on his personal journey
Thank you Larry
You both were blessed and we reap the benefits
What a wonderful thing to say Angels fly so lightly and I believe I feel very strongly that Larry Geller and Elvis Presley are angels and then we the ones that recognize Angelic qualities Among Us are also part of it... it is like a large source coming from a knowledgeable place recognizes us and gives knowledge which we recognize and connect to a dynamic and one another
Oops I meant to say the whole quote in the former text... the last words Elvis said to Larry Geller wera... and you fly because they take themselves so lightly!
Just like John Wilkerson (think that’s his name). He told EP he didn’t know how to play guitar when he was 9. Years later EP saw him and said Aren’t you the guy who told me i could not play guitar. He said yes lol. EP hired him for band. It was meant to be. Just like w Larry.
Wow what a story. I will go visit Graceland this story was awesome. Thanks Larry and for taking care of Elvis when he was here. Hope to get your book soon.
Larry, I believe you know that yes GOD arranged your meet with Elvis. He needed and deserved an angel, human form in his life and he has that in you. Yes you were blessed to have all those wonderful years with Elvis. Larry, Elvis was blessed just as much by you being there for him. I think Elvis found the brother he lost in you. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of the king's life. I love you Larry because I feel such love coming straight from your soul.
Woow thank you for sharing those chapters of Elvis life..your spirit seem so gentle Larry beautiful angelic spirit ...Elvis is an amazing entertainer he brought a lot of people happiness and joy..god is good for being you both together that was one of your purposes in life to be guiding Elvis through his life's journey .. never stop celebrating Elvis continue to keep his legacy alive 😍🤩🤗👍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Elvis did not like California. He only felt at home in Memphis! A true "Southern Gentleman"...
Yeah he was a hick hillbilly basically.
@@rcharest3500 really? He was born and raised in the south, so why wouldn’t he favor his birthplace over California? It’s understandable that he would be homesick and want to be where it was familiar to him, I was born and raised in California and I have grown to hate this wretched state myself, I don’t blame Elvis one bit for not liking it here
@@rcharest3500 A good looking and talented hillbilly. A little jealous? I can see why he hated California. It's always been a hell hole.
Oh, Elvis, WE DID GET YOU. In was all in your voice and in your eyes, and for some strange reason we could see your spirit.
Larry Geller was a good kind and loyal friend to Elvis.
Thank you so much for this video.
Every night when I listen to Elvis hymns , the songs are so beautifully sung and spiritual that I peacefully drift off to sleep a handsome gifted person
Elvis was a handsome gifted person and blessed many people
What ever you may think or try to deduce from this story Larry Geller spoke from his heart about a remarkable human being called Elvis Presley. God is love and so is all.There is nothing outside of ourselves
What you are seeing is an incredible acting job by someone who once wanted to be an actor and is disgusted with themselves that they ended up being just a gay hairdresser instead. I'm sure Elvis would have never let this man touch him if he had any idea how he would turn out.
Serena Twilite The Memphis Maphia accused Larry of being gay back then He didnt deny it The MM didn't like him trying to fill Elvis head with nonsense & Elvis didn't need Larry trying to steer him away from his Christian beliefs
People are so judgemental, it is written judge not or be judged. I don't justify sin. But we are not God. And God is the only one that knows someone's heart.
@@serenatwilite4005 Larry is a new age follower and some in E's inner circle thought Larry pushed this propaganda too much.
@@serenatwilite4005 There's no reason to think Larry himself ever wanted to be an actor. There's also no reason to think Larry is/was gay. He's been married twice; for many years to his second wife.
You know, I am an Elvis fan, and I have been since I was a boy. I'm 55, so I'm not from his generation, but I love the music. Having said that, I am not a fanatic, and I recognize the tragedy and the toll taken on Elvis, and everyone Elvis loved, his family, and the people who lived with him, and who loved him personally.
But I have to be honest here. I look at these people, and thousands of others just like these people who worship Elvis, and after all these years are still obsessed with Elvis, as if he were God. I just find it sad.
This goes beyond loving the memory of a truly talented, extremely charismatic, generous and kind hearted man. It's sad.
I hope this doesn't come off as mean spirited, because that is not the intent. I just feel that these people after all these years are retelling stories, and each and every word, every detail over and over and over. And I see these people, and so many more who had never met Elvis and I see them hanging on every word, every story, riveted and excited at the water flying off his head and hitting someone as if they were in the presence of God.
Elvis was a Christian man, until he met Larry who introduced Elvis new age nonsense, and convinced Elvis, who was in a state of deep depression, and seriously addicted to pain killers, and in that state Larry convinced Elvis that he was one of the "ascended masters" and took Elvis away from the Lord.
This kind of reverence is not what Elvis would want, there are many stories of Elvis being tired of being "worshipped" like this. He was a humble man until the drugs got.
I have great respect for the people who were truly close to Elvis like Sony, and Red West, both departed now, and those few close friends, and family who were with him from the beginning and right to the end. None of those true friends had anything good to say about Larry.
I just find the whole thing sad.
Jack
I agree with you Bronzesnake. There are stories that have been confirmed that Elvis' inner circle chased off Larry G. They didn't want the nonsense of his so called religion to mess with Elvis. They all knew Elvis was not well in many different ways.
All the hangers on are just making money out of obsessive fan's, it wasn't that long after his death before they all started cashing in on him, None had a bad word to say really as the last thing they wanted to do was upset the crazy fan's, and the first thing they wanted was to make money out of him.
You could say that in a way the hangers on is what kept his legacy going for so long, all those that knew him giving tv, magazine interviews, writing books, giving talks etc.
It's popular to Hate Tom Parker yet more money has been made out of Elvis since he died than Parker ever made out of him whilst he was alive, and in all Fairness he was just his manager, he found him work and arranged appearences etc, no reason why someones manager should care deeply for their client on a personal level.
My manager at work provides me with work does less than me and earns more than me, pretty damn sure they don't spend any time worrying about me on a personal level, only concerned that I do my work properly so they can do theirs and get paid.
Larry was a Hairdresser to the stars who then became a full time hairdresser for Elvis, plus a friend, he was certainly paid very well with plenty of perks such as new cars, expensive gifts and so on, Yet Still tries to make money out of him decades after he died, the crazed fans Allow this to happen.
If a dozen people are happy to pay 25 bucks " or whatever it costs" to listen to someone talk about a dead person for an hour and possibly buy their book you can't blame them really
I agree. I do think that Elvis returned to God. I believe he always knew truth but did recognize the supernatural phenomenon this guy was into. The true friends ran this guy out and Elvis was reading the shroud of Turin when he died. Searching for the face of Jesus. It’s Not by mistake he was reading that Book he knew the Truth.
I agree 100%
I too am 55, and followed Wlvis as a fan since I was 5. I also grew up in church, and gave my heart to Jesys Christ. Jesus is the Truth, the Life, and the Way. No one comes to the father, except thru him. Elvis was very vulnerable at the time he met Larry. Searching for answers. I believe Larry was a huge detriment to his spiritual growth. He led him astray. I believe if Elvis missed the boat, it was because of Larry's false doctrine. There us only one way to God, and that is thru Jesus Christ. Not all these detours that Larry was offering him.
You can't take anybody away from the lord by teaching him how to relax. That us what meditation does, calms you down, like an exercise. But, its all mental, you start to learn to respect your body, control your breathing to calm you. If you are in meditation you are asked to think of good thoughts, not bad ones, cuz, you won't get to the meditation state. Maybe you should try it one day, with a person to teach you, how to enter meditation. I feel you will think different. It's just a suggestion😉
I can see why Elvis confided with Larry, he got more insight then any of his other friends. I believe this man 100%%
A
So interesting!
this is why the others didn't care for him very much sadly. he was there for elvis , jst when he needed larry , elvis had a thirst for spirituality and none of the others had any interest in that type of thing . who else was elvis going to speak to about it and who would share this interest with him ? ! larry never forced it on him elvis asked him wat he was about ! larry said he was searching elvis asked him to bring the knowledge to him and he did . i see no reason to disbelieve him he is consistent every time he talks about elvis he had that something only he & elvis shared and larry had that to enjoy of his time with elvis his whole life
@@gassbaggerwoods5955 when the student wants to learn the teacher appears ⚡️
I do too. Larry is a man of intensity. Sorry..
I know this video is old but I am just watching it again for a second time and thought I would respond
Larry was a true friend to Elvis Presley a very genuine person
Thank you very much for your lovely story about my Elvis. It was very good. It touched my heart very deeply.
So sad! Larry was the one true friend Elvis had in his life. ALL of the others in Elvis' inner circle didn't care about Elvis. Elvis was a money machine to them and that's all they care about - the damn money! Elvis was looking to free his spirit, and Larry was the one who could help Elvis do that. They didn't want Elvis to free himself - especially Parker! Just as Elvis was about to have a break through and shake things up, his tired unhealthy body gave out and he collapsed of a heart attack. So tragic ad very sad. Thank you Larry for being the decent, caring you are, and for being Elvis' one true friend when he really needed you. May God bless you! Thank you Elvis for sharing yourself, your talent -- and your soul - with the world. RIP!
Larry Geller, What a beautiful, wonderful job you did talking about the Real Elvis Presley. I shed tears of sorrow and I smiled from the inside out listening to you and watching you almost glow with divine love and light for your friend and spiritual brother, ElvisYou truly love him and he undoubtedly loved you withall of his beautiful heart. I wish you every blessing Larry Geller.
Everytime I've heard Larry talk he comes across as genuine.
Hi there Larry Geller wish you will have more of these conversations on utube about Elvis..Very interesting and super spiritual !
Thanks so much for uploading this video in its entirety. Been wanting to see it for a long time.
Larry. This was such a touching tribute and accounts of who Elvis was and who you are!!! I was a hair dresser at one time in my life and this takes me back to what my clients used to tell me! Naturally God was first but next to their Dr. Me as their hairdresser was next in line of importance! Larry I would truly like to read some of the books you have written! Thank you for sharing these private moments you had with Elvis! May you always be Blessed! ❤
Elvis don't heal... Jesus Does! Elvis would not want people to look at him as a god. He knew he had a gift from GOD! He was just needed some TRUE GUIDANCE!
You missed the whole point. He never compared Elvis to Jesus. He simply talked about Elvis 's life and who he really was. Even Elvis himself did not consider himself a king. Elvis never said he was a healer.
The are so true-the only true.WE have litlle now,here in the word.But we have JESUS and God,want and do so Elvis to sing about THE LORD IN UNIVERSE.Fore he know he and only him can .Give real love fore Jesus and God ,just with him selv and love to the people fore people.He live with Jesus and God,now.But,he are still with use.
Iwrite about my point.
God heals what? AIDS? Cancer? Parkinsons? SIDS? He heals nothing!
True
Love to hear Larrys stories. Such a spiritual gentle soul. Glad he was Elvis' friend.
I think Elvis's crew didn't understand this guy because he was inquisitive and interested in learning all he can while he is alive. Most of the crew were more typical American men who didn't even realize just how clueless they were about the world, it's different cultures and all the unanswered questions. I respect people who are not content and who insist on learning more. Elvis was a bright guy and it doesn't surprise me that he wasn't satisfied with his education. He knew there was much to learn and he wanted answers
He is the only genuine friend of Elvis who does not take Elvis for granted. Really cared and does not betrayed Elvis.
It is plain to see
After all these years
Elvis Presley got his wish, and it remains ever present
Was a true friend to Elvis , and Elvis trusted and depended on Larry for the truth.
I’m sorry he didn’t get it in my opinion I wish he never met Larry guys Idiot
@@rustyruss2962 Say just out of curiosity, on just what exactly do you base this opinion of yours on? I mean have you ever met Larry Geller or know him personally? Were you there during the years of his and Elvis Presley's lives/relationship? Because if the answer is no on either one, then you don't have the slightest clue what your talking about.

@@rustyruss2962 You along with everyone else on the face of this planet is obviously more than free and welcome to have their own personal belief system and opinions, and mine is simply that since you've never met the man (Larry Geller) and were not there in his and Elvis's lives/relationship, that you don't know what you're talking about.
@@SultanOfTwang1956 thank u sir
This guy really cared about Elvis.
He's still making money from Elvis...here purporting having been Elvis' spiritual guide...maybe he could have guided him away from the drugs that killed him. I read one of Geller's books. Totally self-serving.

@@kevinbarry4325 Is that the same Joe who sued Elvis because of a failed business venture? This is after Elvis bought him a house and made him best man @ his wedding.
your face i believe this man brought confusion in elvis life. I truly believe Elvis returned to God before his death. He knew truth and you cannot get away from what you know in your heart.
I believe Larry really loved Elvis , but don't hear much about the greatest book ever written the Bible!!!!!all these books he was giving him confused him. He didn't know what to believe in . All he needed was God!!!
Sharon, just so you know, Elvis always had the Bible with him. He was seeking deep answers so he could understand more about God.
He needed the Quran*
I don’t agree with this that these books Larry gave him confused him, because Elvis was a very intelligent man and he already knew the Bible. Some people just don’t like anyone especially someone famous to read other very good books, like the Quran. And you have to know which books are they in the first place. Does it have to be only one book the bible people should it.And people who read the bible should know other great books too. What’s in the book that’s what matters.
And he had God!
He needed to believe in himself and find the God gift within just as the writers of those books, they were part of the learning
This is the only guy that Elvis could really talk about spiritual issues with. This man speaks truth
Hmm... Larry was Elvis's Rasputin.
@@PauloPereira-jj4jv agreed when Elvis would get into the new age hocus pocus stuff the guys would be flat out like, I don’t believe that stuff and cut him short (very good for Elvis to hear grounded truth like that from his friends) but geller was not liked by the other guys they called him the guru he encouraged elvis in all that garbage - new age stuff - Elvis got very out of touch. New age was popular in California around that time it was a fad seek the real God you will be glad you did He is near to all of us when we seek him with all our heart don’t run after the things in this world
@@langyd4518 Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
@@PauloPereira-jj4jv You've got that right.
Larry Geller is a liar and a phony!
I think the silence of the audience spoke volumes. What a beautiful friendship & tribute.

AMEN 👍🕎❤️
AMEN
Amen
Aman to that
Amen
Thank you Larry or your wonderful love, respect, true friendship and wonderful true stories from your life with Elvis. It is very clear why he wanted you in his life.
I enjoyed this. This is the 2nd interview I'v heard, when they were not focusing on the negative parts of Elvis. The one thing I didn't agree with... Elvis didn't enjoy making the movies. But overall, a nice interview. Thanks for sharing. :)
ruby irene At 37:00 Elvis wanted to quit movies ? I believe it, he did shortly after that. Is that what you believe?, Elvis didn't like movies?
At first, Elvis loved making movies. When the scripts became the same, with different actors, he no longer enjoyed doing them.
Elvis you were out of our sight but you never out of our mind .We love you forever.
Elvis was a southern Baptist,and said he was not the king,the only king was Jesus
no he was the KING OF ROCK AND ROLL only.
Elvis was Assembly of God. His mother was related to the minister of his church. He was pentecostal, not baptist.
Elvis went to many different churches in the early 60's. He stopped at a Church of Christ, one night. My sister's father in law was preaching and saw Elvis come in and sit on the back pew... he didn't give Elvis away. Elvis got up and left before the service was over. He was one of a kind!
@@jessiem276 True. When he moved to California to do movies he visited and was open to other denominations. But the fact is he was raised Pentecostal. Most Pentecostal preachers and singers moved around just like E. did. That's where he learned it.
@@dr.know-it-all5148 Yes, I had read that he was Pentecostal. Is that kind of like the Church of God? I think the church he visited was around Fort Payne, Alabama. My sister's father in law, said, he came in that night after the services had started, sat there and listened very closely..then left before the closing song. Another older man saw him, too, but..didn't say anything...until later. Those were smaller "country" churches.
ThanQ Larry for sharing 🙏 Elvis will be Proud of you❤🍀🕊🌹💫🌟🌟🌟💞Henny from the Netherlands 🙋🏼♀️🙏❤✌
