What a great interview. Dick Grob was a man of integrity and honor. I’m so glad I came across this talk with him tonight as it is one of the top I’ve heard so far. Wish Elvis had been surrounded by more people like him who over forty years later kept it classy and shared a lot of great information and stories. RIP Mr. Grob.
Dick Grob left us one month ago,but I wish he could hear me thanking him from the bottom of my heart for his marvelous interview. It ìs the best I've ever seen about Elvis. It should have been taken as an example by some members of his entourage who claimed to be his best friends to know him better than all other people, but they didn't. Mr Grob gave a true picture of Elvis as a man and as an artist, he talks as a gentleman avoiding gossips and respecting his private life.He was so honest to believe what Parker said about the danger to perform abroad because of the security. He was a policeman and could have the connections with the police of other countries. He talks how he used to push out the crowd of fans always with politness. Just like Red and Sonny West did with their rude and raw ways so that Elvis had to pay many lawyers to discharge them. Mr Grob shows to know how Elvis wanted to arrange his music,how he could read different audiences, how he liked to sneak out, to fool people He doesn't mention his excentric behaviours or his addictions, to him Elvis is a soulful ,generous, caring man and the greatest entertainer in the worlds and the man who changed his life and the life of millions of people. So a true friend should speak about Elvis not spreading out half.truths or lies only for money or visibility.
I think This interview was excellent that Dick Grob did. He never talked bad about his time with Elvis and just like he avoided saying anything about Priscilla asking questions. It was between her and Elvis. He was very interesting and glad he did this interview because now he passed away and there aren’t many left now to tell their story with Elvis. R.I.P Dick Grob Elvis was the greatest singer and entertainer on Planet Earth. Never to be forgotten.❤️🎼🎼❤️
Likely one of the very best Elvis interviewers- so very considerate of his guests by allowing them to speak with little to no interruptions, a true gem of a man and his channel. Thank you for these beautiful and heart wrenching interviews of the ONE & ONLY ELVIS ❗️✨
R.I.P MR.Dick Grobe.I hear this man in another documentary very funny person.So sad died another was part of a life of Elvis.Great interview.Elvis forever.
Thank you Stig and Dick Grob for this interview on Elvis done very professionally! Enjoyed Ducks Recollection about Elvis’s down to earth characteristics and his musical abilities! Another great video of Elvis history
What a good interview. I have been an Elvis fan for about a year and am so hungry to hear about him. I remember watching him as a teenager do his 68 Comeback and I remember I could hardly breath! And as I raised my family when his records were played on the radio I knew it was an Elvis song just because my heart would start racing away. Elvis was the only singer that did that to me. One day my girlfriend who is a few years older than me said something about Elvis was her heart throb and again my heart started racing. I thought Elvis Presley and looked him up on the internet and I have been glued to anything I can find out about him ever since. I think I am a fanatic about him. He takes my breath away when I see a picture of him and when he sings I cry. He is intoxicating. He has brought a lot of joy into my life. Just wish I had started sooner. A wonderful person he was. The kindness he showed Dick Grob while he was sitting in that cop car was unreal. That Elvis himself walked down to his car and sat in the car with him and just talked to him. R.I.P. 👑💕💕💕 We love you. Elvis. My daughter is going with me to Graceland in the spring to pay our respects to him and his family. Thank you for your time in doing this interview. God bless.
He was such a great singer and entertainer. It is hard to believe a legend like Elvis would be in that time Era. He was so modern it is like he was from all Future time frames. He will always be Elvis . He was not a King but the son of a KING. He is however the KING OF Rock and Roll but not of Earth. He would tell you that.
This is my second go around watching these interviews with people that knew Elvis. I really like Dick Grob. Sadly we've lost Dick and recently Ronnie Tutt, his drummer. RIP Dick. All the closest around Elvis(entourage are gone now except for Billy his cousin Jerry Shilling and Sam Thompson) That's why I'm so happy we have these videos for posterity, to hear stories of Elvis and those that knew him and their experiences with him. This is important for the legends of the new young fans to connect to the man as well as his music.
Dick is right my kids are just now discovering elvis they are young teens. they love his music and looks. However they never heard of michael jackson and prince or know of great entertainers of that era or my 80s 90s era. Elvis will outlast them all.
The sound system in N.Y. When Elvis played there at The Madison Square Garden, was the most amazing sound of Elvis voice I ever heard. I remember being up top of the arena and up too looking at the speakers hanging from the ceiling! Wow his voice gave me chills! That sounds at the Garden was unbelievable!
Belinda Scott, Dick Grob said Elvis didn’t drink or smoke. He didn’t say Elvis drank at all. Listen to the interview again and you will hear where he said he didn’t drink or smoke.
Man,very sad to hear about Dick Grobe’s passing.He always had really cool stories about the King and never spoke a negative word about him.R.I.P. Mr. Grobe,you will be missed.
Every artist has a bad or not as good a show usually because they’re not feeling well or because maybe something happened that day that was very sad or traumatic. That is just part of life and part of being human . People don’t know what someone has been through before they got on that stage . This is a great interview
Elvis was one of a kind he is and always will be as Dick says Top Dog , To have a relationship with Elvis is Magical and that exactly what it is when you are a true Elvis fan There will never be another Elvis God bless Dick Grob I'm sorry to hear about his passing last week We are loosing so many of the original Memphis Mafia Thank God they have done these interviews in their own words
You can tell Elvis is singing to the Lord Jesus when he sang Gospel songs It from the bottom of his heart to heaven. Elvis had a wonderful, inspirational loving voice and heart.
I don't think EP was nuts for leaving his family to come out and talk with him. That was wisdom to check out and get to know the inner circle of people that were protecting him.
Fantastic interview. More precious now. FANTASTIC questions. What would be the one question YOU would ask. Elvis. Always love your videos. Been a fan. Forever. T C B CANADA. Great job. Never forget in a hundred years from now they will be analyzing all these videos of people that were WITH him to STILL.find out who this so called KING really was. It’s not to far fetched from reality ( had to put that in ).
I truly believe 100 years from now, when all who lived during Elvis' lifetime are gone, that Elvis Presley will still be remembered and celebrated. I predict that in 2120 Graceland and Memphis, TN will have a banner year for attendance. I was very young when Elvis died (5 years old). This video with Dick is very underrated IYAM. It should get more views.
So terribly sad. So many Elvis people are passing away, people who actually knew him. Recently Knox Phillips and now Dick Grob. Fortunately we have them on video so we can continue to see the interviews. Hopefully future generations will be interested in knowing about Elvis too.
RIP, Mr. Dick Grob. I would have liked to have met him. I've recently moved to LV, NV and now he has passed on. And it's so cool to hear that he's from Toledo, Ohio; my home town! It's a small world. But he left shortly after I was born... So that's the way life goes... And, he must have been a good guy since Elvis Presley hired him on his wedding day! He must have done something very right and continued to do so over the years... It's interesting, think about it, most people are not thinking about bringing on a new hire on their wedding day... #DickGrob #ElvisPresley4Ever
This is a wonderful interview.. Thankful for all he shared with all of us who love Elvis. Sorry Mr. Grob has passed so he wont know how much we appreciate him sharing with us. 1:03:26
Thank u for being the one individual I've seen so far that hasn't talked trash on their so called BFF Elvis, ur loyalty and respect for Elvis speaking of him is refreshing. P.s. 2021 ~Sad to hear of this guys passing.
Even though Elvis had to live behind gates, walls, and security personnel information about him was quite accessible to the public. He never drove fans away from his driveway entrances or refused photos and autographs. It was well known that he came from very modest means and with a southern and modest demeanor. This must be the formula that made him so loved for decades. Not to mention his God given talents. It is said that he only had several $Million liquid cash when he died proving that he had given most of his wealth away to charities and personal that surrounded him in the form of wages. I would think that he lived the way that made him feel fulfilled he always wondered “Why Me” why the fame and success?
Only too glad he didn't pass before he explained about the Samurai sword found in the draw of the living room at gracelands they were glad to know .the story behind it as no one else would have known ,glad angie had the sense to put it back in the drawer that elvis left it in
Good interview . My question is about Jerry Schilling -he started out with absolutely nothing - now he and Priscilla are on top of this “Elvis “ movie They are reaping plenty from Elvis’s Death. Does Priscilla realize she wouldn’t be where she is today had it not been for Elvis? Sooo many people made big and bigger because of Elvis!!! So many many things he had done for her family. Maybe their anterior motives (her parents) What parent cannot manage a 14 year old girl? So so sad!
Jerry has been an amazing friend to Elvis throughout the years!!!! He was amazing to Elvis!! He loved Lisa no matter what. He did creative things for Graceland. He was one who didn’t live off Elvis! He made his own way.
Cracks me up about the Salt Lake concert, being LDS I get it lol especially the older generations especially were much more reserved, it wasn't because they didn't like the concert they probably loved Elvis more than he knew its just ingrained in us to be mindful, respectful and courteous during performances our music in our church is very reverent and actime to reflect but you sing about Jesus with the energy like Elvis people are gonna feel it and move with it.😂
How refreshing , to hear an honest account of Elvis's life , jst straight forward details , no muck throwing , never heard one word bad against Elvis . i have heard many comments against Dick Grob and i don't know why , concerning the time i think vernon wanted ginger checked out , many said he could not be trusted he was a liar , tho i don't see wat dick had to gain from that lying , he is a former policeman elvis had him drop that and come work for him then he was his security /bodyguard he collected the information and reported back to Vernon. this video i thought was very good things he told were true else he said he didn't know , wasn't about to talk about prescilla when asked if other womnan were there he wouldn't comment good on you dick He did a fine job of keeping elvis safe for us , so glad he was there when he found the reporter hiding in the morgue , and more so had the savvy to check for more saving elvis & his family's dignity if pictures got out . signs of a very good and loyal friend , no wonder elvis loved him RIP dick
Hi Grassbagger Woods, I never heard anything bad about Dick Grob about being a list. I did hear it about another MM guy but not Dick Grob. He always gave great interviews.
Grassbagger Woods, sorry on my post to you it says list. I meant liar but you can’t edit here like many other sights where you can go back and fix your mistakes.
@@dotmoran9808 And this is it , the man has no axe to grind on anyone , a very nice man by all accounts , with no reason to lie anyone says he is a liar are lying themselves! elvis was very happy with dick he did a good job as head of security there were some MM that were liars and dicks interviews were great ! and the thing is if people don't like or agree with wat someone says they call them a liar !!
This is the sort of guy that you need arouned you he was very loyal and you get that from him Elvis had a way of getting to know people around him and to see if they would be loyal it is a shame that all of these people are now sadly no longer with us but you can tell that they were devoted to him.
Elvis was very smart in hiring policeman to work for him, they had the smarts to keep him safe! Dick was very valuable with his experience of dealing with high profile people. Red and Sonny etc. Lacked that part. All together, a good group.
Touring in Europe wasn't an option seeing that Parker was an illegal immigrant and wouldn't be able to get a visa. Sad that he held Elvis back in so many ways.
Obviously it was after Elvis. But at some point, artists started bringing with them their own sound system equipment. Today artists bring it all with them, speakers, lights, etc. Back then they obviously just relied on what was available at each venue. It is not like that these days. If he was performing today, Elvis would have a huge 18 wheeler with speakers, video equipment, etc. in there. He would travel to the venue on a plane after his people had the venue setup with his own video and audio equipment. Tickets to his shows would be well in excess of $100 today for seats in the nose-bleed area. For VIP tix today, Elvis would easily get $1500 per person.
Who killed Elvis? If it was Elvis, then he had many, many accomplices. Perhaps he did die of heart failure, or perhaps he couldn't carry on. In 2020, forty three years after his death, still the best there ever was, is, or will be.... xxxxxxx
The original memphis from the 50s is Jerry shilling and Billy Smith, the rest came along in the 60s and 70s but of course they were still part of the memphis Mafia.
Don't know if I believe everything Dick Grob tells about Elvis....?? He was not as close to his BIG BOSS MAN...like Larry...same thing...lots of perception.....
The more I look into it the more confused I became. I know what the Lord thinks of all of these hangers on who were just making a stañce. He should have left in the end hang so many creeps they just brought him down.
There is no bad music it all beautiful he speaks can they do what he does hesaking athother greater detail in the Lord he's the only won whoml make a fuss he was treated with disdain all of.
Anyone who made a buck out of Elvis ought to be ashamed of themselves. It seems that people saw him as money, images, figurines. He didn't even have time to taken by a Delilah. This man paid for to many advisors who gave him the wrong advise people who were inexperienced insuch matters.
Dick meant well but was not qualified to discuss with any authority about how Elvis died. What he suggests here is disingenuous, but understandable given his loyalty and friendship with Elvis. All the best research suggests strongly that the toxic level of drugs in Elvis' at the time of his death was consistent with that of an overdose.
The facts are: Per the medical examiners report. Elvis died of hypertensive cardiovascular disease with coronary artery disease which resulted in a myocardial infarction (heart attack) Per the medical examiner, no one could have saved him. There were large quantities of 4 drugs in his system that were for therapeutic use, but not enough to kill him. The medical examiner or coroner are the only ones qualified to make this determination which is based on examination of the body and test results.
@@norway178 The medical examiners present at the autopsy vehemently disagreed with Dr. Jerry Francisco's diplomatic wording of the findings. Francisco suggested that Elvis died of cardiac arrest, consistent with a known history of heart disease. The subsequent toxicology report suggested that there was a sufficient presence of 13 prescribed medications in Elvis' system to support the supposition that Elvis may well have died of poly-pharmacy event, thereby precipitating cardiac arrest. Elvis overdosed, necessitating medical resuscitation, on (at least) three occasions between 1967 to 77. Elvis may well have believed his medication to have a therapeutic effect, but all reports, official and anecdotal, suggest that his abuse of prescribed medications and poor dietary habits, exacerbated highly treatable conditions. Elvis fell foul of a psychoactive dependency that necessitated incremental dosages to have the desired effect.
@@lorichet I hope that brings you some comfort, but Elvis was not the Mills and Boon fantasy figure you imagine him to be. Talented, but inherently flawed.
What a beautiful testament of a relationship built on trust, respect, and loyalty.
What a great interview. Dick Grob was a man of integrity and honor. I’m so glad I came across this talk with him tonight as it is one of the top I’ve heard so far.

I totally agree with you
I don't understand how someone with a conscience could tell lies about another human being for money, or, visibility. Those people are so shameless.

Superb Interview .Rest In Peace Dick . Truth Prevails.
What a story...these kind of people were close to Elvis
So many of people close to Elvis are passing. It was a much nicer time, nicer people.
Today it is 44 years since Elvis died and he would’ve been 86yo-2021
He was such a great singer and entertainer. It is hard to believe a legend like Elvis would be in that time Era. He was so modern it is like he was from all
Future time frames. He will always be Elvis .
He was not a King but the son of a KING.
He is however the KING OF Rock and Roll but not of Earth. He would tell you that.
RIP to an honest and great man who loved and respected Elvis.

Billy stanley is still around
Bill Morris and Larry Geller still alive,.. Dean Nichopolous ( Dr Nick son) too , Elvis stepbrothers - two of them still alive Billy and David..
Larry Geller is still alive as well.
The best and most honest interview of elvis I’ve ever heard . R.i.p brother , a very interesting life .
For sure
Bull crap

He just said that Elvis drank!!??? What??
Belinda Scott, Dick Grob said Elvis didn’t drink or smoke. He didn’t say Elvis drank at all. Listen to the interview again and you will hear where he said he didn’t drink or smoke.
🎵His voice is unlike any man that has ever sang.🎵
Man,very sad to hear about Dick Grobe’s passing.He always had really cool stories about the King and never spoke a negative word about him.R.I.P. Mr. Grobe,you will be missed.
Absolutely

That is just part of life and part of being human . People don’t know what someone has been through before they got on that stage . This is a great interview
Rest in peace Dick.
So sad we lost a dear friend and bodygard from Elvis.
@Kayden Reginald
Is that LEGAL?
RIP in heaven Dick Grobe!! He was a real and loyalty friend.
An excellent Video! Thanks for sharing.
Elvis was one of a kind he is and always will be as Dick says Top Dog ,
To have a relationship with Elvis is Magical and that exactly what it is when you are a true Elvis fan
There will never be another Elvis
God bless Dick Grob I'm sorry to hear about his passing last week
We are loosing so many of the original Memphis Mafia
Thank God they have done these interviews in their own words
Yes agreed @ the losing the Memphis Mafia-so sad 😭
Enjoyed this interview of Dick Grob. He obviously thought highly of Elvis. Sounds like he was a true friend. R.I.P.
Stig does a good interview. Nice job. Interesting to hear Dick talk.
Thanks Dick for Shedding some light on Elvis.u understood his wasn't easy to deal with u did your very best for him.RIP.
Thank you for sharing you are so kind this is another piece to the elvis puzzle great interview love anything about elvis Presley. TCB
You can tell Elvis is singing to the Lord Jesus when he sang Gospel songs It from the bottom of his heart to heaven. Elvis had a wonderful, inspirational loving voice and heart.
Elvis will never be forgotten. He will be here forever, always TOP DOG. R.I.P DICK GROB.
Thanks for uploading. Much appreciated!
Love these stories, brings me closer to the man I love.
I don't think EP was nuts for leaving his family to come out and talk with him. That was wisdom to check out and get to know the inner circle of people that were protecting him.
Great and humble guy! Met him when he was part of the "An evening with Elvis's musicians and friends" tour of Sweden.
Humble?????Please!
Fantastic interview. More precious now. FANTASTIC questions. What would be the one question YOU would ask. Elvis. Always love your videos. Been a fan. Forever. T C B CANADA. Great job. Never forget in a hundred years from now they will be analyzing all these videos of people that were WITH him to STILL.find out who this so called KING really was. It’s not to far fetched from reality ( had to put that in ).
Amen !!
Dick Grob was a true gentleman I think Viva Las Vegas is Elvis's best movie
I truly believe 100 years from now, when all who lived during Elvis' lifetime are gone, that Elvis Presley will still be remembered and celebrated. I predict that in 2120 Graceland and Memphis, TN will have a banner year for attendance. I was very young when Elvis died (5 years old).

It was sad for me, I knew him personally.

I'm terrible at work everyday, luckily I work for my father.....Elvis will live on forever, The post death marketing has been amazing.
Great interview 👏🏻👏🏻
Thank u for being the one individual I've seen so far that hasn't talked trash on their so called BFF Elvis, ur loyalty and respect for Elvis speaking of him is refreshing.
P.s. 2021 ~Sad to hear of this guys passing.
I'm a 38 year old woman & I'm a 3rd generation fan.
Even though Elvis had to live behind gates, walls, and security personnel information about him was quite accessible to the public. He never drove fans away from his driveway entrances or refused photos and autographs. It was well known that he came from very modest means and with a southern and modest demeanor. This must be the formula that made him so loved for decades. Not to mention his God given talents.

I'll bet he had a lot more than 1 mil left.
I never knew Dick had passed another one of the Memphis Mafia gone .. RIP DG ..
Great interview RIP Dick TCB
Clap clap for the way he handled the paparazzi at the morgue
Sou do Brasil. Há 50 anos, sou fã verdadeiramente, de Elvis Presley!

Dick Grob has some great stories this man was hit a security for Elvis
Good interview . My question is about Jerry Schilling -he started out with absolutely nothing - now he and Priscilla are on top of this “Elvis “ movie They are reaping plenty from Elvis’s Death.

This is the sort of guy that you need arouned you he was very loyal and you get that from him Elvis had a way of getting to know people around him and to see if they would be loyal it is a shame that all of these people are now sadly no longer with us but you can tell that they were devoted to him.
Jerry Schilling said the same thing on the searcher about Elvis planning on touring in Europe confirmation
Fantastic interview!
RE sleepwalking I read that EP mostly did that in the 50's (and maybe as a child too) but after that, rarely did it if ever.
RIP sweet man. 🙏
Love it - Dick is very funny guy
Elvis was very smart in hiring policeman to work for him, they had the smarts to keep him safe! Dick was very valuable with his experience of dealing with high profile people. Red and Sonny etc. Lacked that part. All together, a good group.
Touring in Europe wasn't an option seeing that Parker was an illegal immigrant and wouldn't be able to get a visa. Sad that he held Elvis back in so many ways.
Elvis could have gone any where he wanted.. and leave Col. P back at home. And he should have.
Elvis did what he wanted if he wanted to go he would've parker or no parker
R.I.P x
Obviously it was after Elvis. But at some point, artists started bringing with them their own sound system equipment. Today artists bring it all with them, speakers, lights, etc. Back then they obviously just relied on what was available at each venue. It is not like that these days. If he was performing today, Elvis would have a huge 18 wheeler with speakers, video equipment, etc. in there. He would travel to the venue on a plane after his people had the venue setup with his own video and audio equipment. Tickets to his shows would be well in excess of $100 today for seats in the nose-bleed area. For VIP tix today, Elvis would easily get $1500 per person.
Who killed Elvis? If it was Elvis, then he had many, many accomplices. Perhaps he did die of heart failure, or perhaps he couldn't carry on. In 2020, forty three years after his death, still the best there ever was, is, or will be.... xxxxxxx
ELVS best of best. ♥★♥★♥★♥★♥★

Elvis feared the dark and he did sleep well till the end at times
Rip Dick. Only two memphis mafia guys left now I think; Billy & Jerry. 😥
Laurie NEBRASKA there's also Larry Geller and Sam Thompson who was security like Dick Grob was.
The original memphis from the 50s is Jerry shilling and Billy Smith, the rest came along in the 60s and 70s but of course they were still part of the memphis Mafia.
And 2 step brothers left who were part of MM also
Hi Laurie Nebraska, Dont forget Sam Thompson. He always gave great interviews to and never said a bad thing about his friend Elvis.
Katgirlblue, hi Larry Geller was Elvis hairdresser. He wasn’t a body guard.
He is alive.and live in Graceland.Elvis .
Before Elvis young people did not have a singer in their age group. Before him mostly singers like Sinatra, who was great!
I'd have a damn heart attack if I woke up & someone was sitting in my room watching me sleep.
Being a policeman is a steady job, and, yet, Paul McCartney said he quit the police department, and THEN found himself a steady job.
People never told him out right it was bad ever
You can't say though that red and sonny didn't love elvis and want to help him
Who’s singing the vocal?
Maarten Jansen
Those cops should have given the scarves to the blind kids. I guess at least they got to go to the concert.

Dick Grob was not nice to Elvis' fiance, Ginger Alden. Just FYI...
He doesn't even realize it's metabolites that remain in your body, not the drugs. Metabolites and drugs are two different things
He never bought with ginger that night
Don't know if I believe everything Dick Grob tells about Elvis....?? He was not as close to his BIG BOSS MAN...like Larry...same thing...lots of perception.....
Besides, so many bad policemen in USA. NOT TOO SMART POLICEMEN. Their ego changes when they put on their uniform....Groetjes was NOT an EP fan
in the first 28 seconds did anybody understand a single word of that guy ?
No lol
He was speakingin Danish to his Danish audience. 😊
yes ; )
The more I look into it the more confused I became. I know what the Lord thinks of all of these hangers on who were just making a stañce. He should have left in the end hang so many creeps they just brought him down.
There is no bad music it all beautiful he speaks can they do what he does hesaking athother greater detail in the Lord he's the only won whoml make a fuss he was treated with disdain all of.
Im not convinced that the Lord holds col Tom Parker innocent in Elvis's death. There weren't no laws back then to prevent anyone itself harm.
thats why a good christian could never be a cop in the true sence of the word ,because jesus was about forgivness.
oh shut up😒
Anyone who made a buck out of Elvis ought to be ashamed of themselves. It seems that people saw him as money, images, figurines. He didn't even have time to taken by a Delilah. This man paid for to many advisors who gave him the wrong advise people who were inexperienced insuch matters.
Dick meant well but was not qualified to discuss with any authority about how Elvis died. What he suggests here is disingenuous, but understandable given his loyalty and friendship with Elvis. All the best research suggests strongly that the toxic level of drugs in Elvis' at the time of his death was consistent with that of an overdose.
@Larry O'Connor An accidental overdose being the inevitable result of a hazardous meds regime over a protracted period going back to his teens.
The facts are: Per the medical examiners report. Elvis died of hypertensive cardiovascular disease with coronary artery disease which resulted in a myocardial infarction (heart attack) Per the medical examiner, no one could have saved him. There were large quantities of 4 drugs in his system that were for therapeutic use, but not enough to kill him. The medical examiner or coroner are the only ones qualified to make this determination which is based on examination of the body and test results.
@@norway178 The medical examiners present at the autopsy vehemently disagreed with Dr. Jerry Francisco's diplomatic wording of the findings. Francisco suggested that Elvis died of cardiac arrest, consistent with a known history of heart disease. The subsequent toxicology report suggested that there was a sufficient presence of 13 prescribed medications in Elvis' system to support the supposition that Elvis may well have died of poly-pharmacy event, thereby precipitating cardiac arrest. Elvis overdosed, necessitating medical resuscitation, on (at least) three occasions between 1967 to 77. Elvis may well have believed his medication to have a therapeutic effect, but all reports, official and anecdotal, suggest that his abuse of prescribed medications and poor dietary habits, exacerbated highly treatable conditions. Elvis fell foul of a psychoactive dependency that necessitated incremental dosages to have the desired effect.
@@lorichet I hope that brings you some comfort, but Elvis was not the Mills and Boon fantasy figure you imagine him to be. Talented, but inherently flawed.
