Elvis is still in the building in 2023.
He will live forever. I’m 77 and never miss a day of watching on UTube.
not if whites are wiped out like they did to them in China, white first in chine look it up, why chinese so light skin
So true !!!!!🤗🇬🇧
Elvis is amazing in 2020.
No one wore a jumpsuit like ELVIS! He was a style icon!
Elvis dressed like a king
Lansky Brothers owner & Founder interposed dressed all the big Blue Players of the Day. Bb King, Howling wolf, Ray Charles, THOUSANDS. When Elvis went to prom Lansky's dressed him. It was Lansky's founder who showed Elvis at 17 to pop his collar. If you go to Lansky's in Memphis on Beale Street the founders son will show you photos and tell you all about it. 🥰 Bill Beleau (sp?) Says the reason he picked the huge collars and sleeves were to inspire an Edwardian Prince type feel. He wanted to do a spin off on the already popular pointed collars of the 1970's. That is who designed his off stage wear too. You can totally see the edwardian feel in the baby blue suit from the Madison Square garden press confrence.
Elvis elegant man, the music , and the jumpsuit was so beautiful with elegance and charmous designer
Real Elvis fans go to the Aloha outfit! Badass!

The gold sundial suit was actually first worn in Tahoe in October 1974. He never wore it again until his first tour in February of ‘77.

Bill Belew said and an interview once that he designed the jumpsuits with a high collar so it would "frame" Elvis's face because he had such a good looking face.
@Dave Roberts "Nope" to what?

Elvis has the most beautiful face in the world.
Wonderful. So grateful they were saved.
Some were sold in the late 70's by Vernon to avoid loosing Graceland. Once Graceland was opened alot of people sold the stuff back to Graceland. Jimmy Velvet had a bunch in his Elvis museum & sold them back to Graceland once the EP museum closed.
Vernon survived the depression and never through out anything!
Wspaniałe stroje miał Elwis niesamowite
Loved them all .
'The Peacock' is said to have been Elvis' own favourite jumpsuit. The suit was a beauty, as is the majestic bird on which it was based. Astonishingly, it was auctioned off in 2008 and fetched the $300,000 mentioned in this video. Unsurprisingly, this sell off caused a huge negative reaction among fans worldwide.
My personal favourite is the Turquoise (or Aqua Blue Vine), which again was auctioned off by a private collector.
The Sundial suit was his favourite in his final year only, mainly because it was the most comfortable by then.
@Wes McGee I wonder how the suit ended up with the collector. Was it the blue suit from the Madison Square Garden shows or the one we see in Elvis on Tour?
YES TOMMY!!!! 👌👌🙌🙌🙌
@@tommyboo21 the White and orange/red grommet suit & cape from MSG was auctioned off.
@@kelliintexas3575 Yes, the Eyelet jumpsuit and Cape fetched just over $1,000,000 !! And in case you're wondering, no I'm not the new owner 😄
Very cool
Wow amazing!!🙏🏼🙏🏼
My favorite is the black "Matador "
Never liked the tacky later jumpsuits. 1970 ones are my favorite simple and he was in incredible shape back then.
...i liked him in some jumpsuits, not others. I hoped he would had wored other Tupé of outfits.

My Uncle Manuel. made Elvis his first outfit, as in the gold jacket and the jumpsuit costume. 😁
Amor eterno!!!❤❤❤
The Sundial suit wasen't Elvis favorite, it was one of 2 suits he could fit into at the time, its been said the Peacock was his favorite
EXACTLY!!! He was DEATHLY ILL the last three years of his life!! The Cushings syndrome kept his abdomen face & fingers swelling off and on such he was almost unrecognizable!

This is incorrect. Gene Doucette mentioned that all suits made after 74 (embroidered ones) were adaptable to his weight gain. His last new suit he wore on stage in October 76 would fit him easily at the end as it was done for Elvis when he was at his largest up to that time (summer of 76) - and when he lost significant amount of weight for fall 76 tours, it was way too large for him. Sundial was made in 74 and when EP wore Arabian 74 suit at the very latest shows, he wore it with original belt - not with larger belt made for V-Neck suit from 1975. In 77 he wore Indian Feather, Rainfall, Sundial and Arabian. Sundial and Arabian are from 74, Indian Feather (IMO his most beautiful jumpsuit!) and Rainfall are from 75. Fire suit from 76 would easily fit him in 77 but that suit was way too "flashy" even for him and he wore it just twice on stage in October 76.
@@petrcejka2125 thank you for correcting this person 100% Gene Doucette designed all of Elvis’s jumpsuit’s and still makes them to this day for tribute artist/ Elvis Impersonators you should actually look into the story about it it’s actually quite cool because he wasn’t making them and then a fan made up a couple himself and they were so good that him and gene meet and he was blown away with how good they were and that the guy asked for his permission before selling them that gene gave him the Original patterns for the jumpsuits and helps the guy make them to this day
Wow!
Amooooooo o Elvis, é o grande amor da minha vida
Brasil
Los trajes son preciosos. Los he visto en otro video que los enseñan según los años
Gracias, sois muy amables. 👋
He looks so Regal in all that he wore.
He wore the AZTEC because it was the largest suit.
EXACTLY! The peacock was his absolute favorite one! Elvis had MAJOR HEALTH problems I don't think most people realize. He wasn't your average 42yr old male. He had HORRIFFIC Glaucoma, he had to get shots directly in his Iris to lower his eye pressure to avoid going blind. Hence the dark glasses. His colon they wanted to remove and give him a bag, he had Cushings syndrome, hence his deceased abdomen, swollen fingers & face. He had type 2 Diabetes, He had fluid on his heart, fatty liver disease, he was suppose to under go dialysis before he left for tour. He had Traumatic Brain Injury which was responsible for his erratic behavior, temper, OCD, forgetting lyrics, after 3 MAJOR Brain blows in 15 years. Maybe you should read " Destined to die young". Elvis had MAJOR health problems from birth. There is WAY more to that story. His mom, Grandma Doll & 6 of his 8 uncles all died in their 40's. He took perscriptions to deal with his Genetic health problems, his enlarged paralyzed colon, Glaucoma, Antitrypsin Deficiency, a condition which can result in lung and/or liver disease both of which he had severely at the time of his death. Elvis was never a smoker or drinker. He had Together with the immune system disorder, hypogammaglobulinemia, which plagued Elvis all his life and caused him to constantly fight various infections. His “inherited” weak heart, reactive arthritis, and the impact of his nocturnal lifestyle, resulting in a lack of vitamin D, the effects of which contributed to respiratory infections, reduced immune function, and inflammation.
Of the 11 bodily systems that operate to keep us alive and hopefully healthy. Critically, Elvis suffered disease or disorder in nine of them! And five were present from birth and pre his fame. His heart (circulatory system), his lungs (respiratory system), and his bowels (digestive/excretory systems) required medication. Insomnia affected his nervous system……His immune system was compromised. His urinary system was not functioning properly. At one point there was even talk of dialysis.
Often he is dismissed as just another rock ‘n’ roll drug addict. He wasn't taking street drugs. He was taking perscriptions not to "ESCAPE" h was taking them to try to maintain some sense of normalcy as himself in a time where the medical field was limited. No DNA, Genetics, No MRI's, little known about the addiction, his dystrophy & No understanding of Vitamin D even.
Looking at the illnesses and disorders, that mounted upon each other over the decades, it’s no coincidence that Elvis’ prescription drug use increased as his health declined. From ear infections to chronic tonsilitis to recurrent flus to eye infections and glaucoma…..these arguably insignificant ailments independently, grew into something more. As his body broke down, alongside multiple immune system disorders and genetic complications, prescription medication and his handy PDR tried to fill the gaps. When that no longer worked, hospital stays became the norm and his list of ailments grew.
The sicker he got, the more prescriptions he was prescribed. He was seeing a cardiologist before he bought Graceland. He was 20yrs old. They have gone through Elvis's entire life of medical records & now have an entire different story now. This is all the facts Geraldo & 20/20 never stated.

My uncle manuel made the the black leather ⚫ come back suit in 1968.
wow! That suit turned Elvis into a Rock n Roll GOD, an icon! Did Uncle Manuel tell you any stories about measuring & fitting Elvis? That two piece black leather number was da bomb!
Go to Graceland and see them all!
Comment dire 😉 se ne sont pas ces costumes qui le rendait beau, c'était lui qui rendait magnifique tous ces costumes ! Il les portait divinement bien ✌️ que voulez vous c'était un seigneur dans toute sa splendeur ❤️ mon dieu si il pouvait revenir, même son fantôme ne me ferais pas peur ❤️

@@Nelly-uz7im oh oui vous avez trouvé les mots justes 👍
The sundial was not his favourite. He wore it at the end mainly. He wore in 40 concerts because he was overweight no others fit properly & didn’t want to be fitted at that time My opinion. But wow. R. They sharp. Who else could ware that ONLY ELVIS.
According to Gene Doucette this is not correct. He mentioned, that all suits made since 1974 could have been adjusted to size he wore at the end. Also - I dont think that in June 77 he was at his "largest" period - I think that in August 76/September 76 he was considerably larger. When you look at his pictures from April / May 1977 and even from Kansas City 77 when he wore Spades suit, he wore original belt for it - few inches enlarged (as in case of Sundial - with a bit blank space near the belt buckle) but it was still original belt from 1974. Considering this - I think that suits from 1975 and especially the last one from 1976 (which was worn in October 76 only, when he lost considerable amount of weight and suit was obviously very large for him) would probably fit to him very well - just with belt maybe slightly enlarged. I really dont think that suits made for him in 1974 (which is Mexican or Spades) were larger than suits made for him in 1975 or even 1976.
Just consider this - with white Bicenntenial Eagle suit, he regularly wore Egyptian suit belt. Look at size of this belt in September 1976 (as it was extended), then look how much weight he lost when he wore Egyptian suit with its original belt (just different buckle) in Birmingham in Dec 76... and now look how much Spades or Sundial belts were extended in 1977. EP wasnt limited only to Sundial.
Hello from England
Those JUMPSUIT outfits were AMAZING. So individual because ELVIS was a "ONE OFF" human being. Although i was only 12 when he died i still love him today.
I have watched numerous videos of his buddy Tom Jones from around 1970-4 and Tom wore some AMAZING outfits. Bell bottom trousers and floaty shirts open almost down to his navel. and high heeled shoes.
I know from interviews Tom has given over the years the leather outfits Elvis had were purchased from North Beach Leather as Tom had also got his leather outfits from there.
Can you imagine if Elvis had come to the UK on tour and they both "SWAGGERED" on to ANY STAGE . I am sure Tom would have been game to wear JUMPSUITS
Oh those days were so much better music wise. NO HORRIBLE AUTOTUNE and TECH that we have now.
when Elvis met the young Osmond Brothers, he took them under his wing and told them to smarten up ("get macho") their stage wear with individualized jumpsuits. The boys took his advice and it DID finish their 'look' and helped them climb.
Elvis was slightly influenced by Liberace whom he met in the late 1956 in Las Vegas where Elvis didn't do too well, as the conservative and older audience were more into tuxedoed Frank Sinatra, Joey Bishop & Sammy Davis Jr.
@@synchronicity1470 love your comment and the use of the word ‘macho’
Unfortunately in this day and age using this word or words like masculine etc will upset the ‘snowflake woke’ world that we live in today
I visited Graceland from 19th April for 7 days and it was amazing
It was a long way to come but I can say I’ve been
I saw all the jumpsuits in the museum and there were many in the glass cabinets ELVIS was so thin maybe 28” waist if that

Muy linda la muestra pero el vídeo podría ser subtitulado así todos comprenderiamos lo que explica la guia
I'm from indiana I had a chance to to see Elvis
But my mom wouldn't let me .we live in a hick one horse town back then ,my mom Said Indianapolis was to rough .I was 15 years old at the time . when he supposedly died I was so mad at my mom for not letting me go see him .
Il faut aimer. Quelques un étaient très beaux (Aloha concert) d’autres très laids (dernier concert). Je le préférais largement en cuir noir et j’aurais aimé qu’il pousuive dans ce style.
Wool gabardine and almost 30 kg. I can't breathe just thinking about having such clothes on. What a King!

Elvis was sooo cool I consider him a music god like Lennon and Jackson
The last two were inspired by Elvis directly. 🥰
My uncle manuel, gave elvis his frist image jump suit, America eagle, and the gold suit?
The suits are nothing without Elvis in them.
Like someone would throw anything of elvis's away.
Well Elvis did allllllllllllll the time lol. He gave everything away too! He gave all his clothing pre-1965 away to Col Parker and it was cut up and sold with records!!!! All the Nudie (Cohn) Suits were spared cause he was a HUGE NAME designer back then it! The Gold lume' suit, the cream suit with black stitches from Clambake(?), and the red & white western suit suit from Loving You with neck hankie. Parker kept all those and Graceland had to sue him to have them returned after Elvis' death. Elvis threw away the '68 comeback clothes - leather suit, white & red suit, and blue pajama suit. They spared them from the trash and were gifted to Graceland after Elvis' death too!!!

Yes. At Graceland.
Yes he left the building. Love my preacher man.Bob Joyce

Bob Joyce is not Elvis.
Elvis is dead.

Where is this place at?... Is it at Graceland? anybody knows where? I'm planning to vacation there this year
Yes it's across the street. It's where all the exhibits are now next door to the new hotel 'The Guesthouse at Graceland. It houses the planes, movie theater, drive in, BBQ, GIFT SHOP, PLANES, SHUTTLES & CAR MUSEUM.
I will come to graceland one last time before my death
He only wore the sundial suit 8 times. Not 40 times. His Fav suit was the Peacock jumpsuit
Not true - he wore it first in late 1974 and then at most shows in 1977 (he did 55 shows in 77). So about 40 concerts seems right count.
@@petrcejka2125 You're correct Petr. In 1977 the Sundial was the most frequent by far, and along with the King of Spades and Indian Feather, were the only jumpsuits worn in that final year.
@@tommyboo21 He also wore the Rainfall suit twice in February '77.
@@scottjenkins3095 Yes Scott, you are correct. Thank you for the correction and additional information.

Great post so amazing
Subtitulos en español por favor.
Si por favor
The black vine suit is originally from 1973, not 74 or 75 like Angie the curator says
He wore it in Vegas in August/ September 1973.
A lot of Elvis's 50s clothes were cut up and a small swatch was made and given to the fans in a boxset of lps
It was 70s clothes, not 50s.
@@scottjenkins3095 maybe, but the if i can dream white suite was about to be cut up but it was saved at the last minute.
italian translation, please.
when Elvis was still in school a lot of his clothes came from good will
Elvis wore the Sundial Jumpsuit so much in his final year only because it was one of the few suits he owned that still fit (sadly he'd gained a lot of weight in the two years of his life).
Jacob oh come on man 🤔 it wasn't so much the weight as he was blotted. Seen 76 conerts where he looked pretty good yet 👍
He was fit for 40 years or his 42 years of life and you had to mention that...Wow, talk about having no sense of humanity. Did you enjoy telling this true or untrue fact. Well Karma is for real and it comes back at you 10 fold
stronger..Plus he wasn't as heavy as people make him out to be. It's those God ugly Elvis impersonators that give people the idea that he was enormous. But yes he was over weight and more bloated from the prescription drugs. You can see that in his last televised concert.
Your a jerk...sorry, but you are.
@@ornellabarbaro3861
I agree with the jacob, after the Hawaii special Elvis was really going down hill
Gaining more weight every years, His good looks were diminishing and for getting words to songs.
@@garydonner7303
He wasnt that great in 76
Gaining weight, his good looks diminishing, not moving on stage like he did in 1970 and forgetting words to songs, after the Hawaii special elvis went down hill bigtime.
@Dave Roberts Really David? My point being if you read my comment, was it necessary to bring the fact that the last two years of his life was when Elvis pretty much was really over weight...What was his point? Let's forget everything before that and concentrate on his weight and his addiction. Keep re enforcing the lowest time of his life and forget mention all the achievements he had. This is what has happened!
Your the one that knows nothing and has no idea of what being a decent human being means. Let's just all dwell on the fact that his weight is the his biggest legacy he left. Jerk or maybe troll,your the one that knows nothing about decency or kindness or empathy. Hope people remember the lowest and most terrible point of your life and forget everything that you may have accomplished. Then you'll understand what I'm saying. And yes, I've seen terrible Elvis impersonators and he was also bloated probably because of the addition which added to his weight gain. In 1974 and 1975 he gained weight but nothing to extreme to even mention.
At this point a black and white pic of Elvis and a gray hair guy with him making a karate move for pic, who is the guy with Elvis on the right?
Before they changed the format
His eagle cape was spread completely out. Now it just hangs. So disrespectful.
I AGREE!! It needs its own spinning case!!
Seems to me he and Liberace had the same taylor? 🌸
Liberace & Elvis were friends in the early days of Elvis career Liberace advised Elvis he needed a image & offered dress advice to look Great on stage etc which sexy Elvis always did👄 the lady talking puts on Elvis world Jump suits etc . She is lovely & I have spoken to her at the 02 London 1st Elvis memorabilia it was Fabulous. 2nd time the memorabilia was shown in London at the 02 was very disappointing very bad lighting not much there & the lady was not there on that trip 02 organised it. They did a appalling job to Elvis memory. Head phones not working etc very commercial & did not enjoy. Elvis was not cheap to his fans he gave his all. My life plan is Memphis hope it is not tacky & commercial. Priscilla keep it classic & classy as fans will not be treated cheap.
Elvis’ manager, Col. Tom Parker, said in a press conference shortly
after his death: “Elvis didn’t die. The body did. We’re keeping up the
good spirits. We’re keeping Elvis alive. I talked to him this morning
and he told me to 'carry on.’” (Elvis did not die and he wanted out. -
Col. Tom Parker. 1977) After hearing so many stories about the death of
Elvis Presley, I have decided to tell the world the real story on the
facts concerning that day in August, 1977. Yes, that day, the 16th of
August. Is it a coincidence that a person born on that January 8, first
month, eighth day, would perish on the 8th month and the 16th day?
Probably if two (2) people were born on that day it makes more sense.
You see, numerology always played an important part of my life and still
does today. So many people have written or spoke about my death as a
hoax. It was not a hoax! I decided to reinvent myself in the form of my
brother (Jesse Garon) and yes, Elvis Presley did die that day. But after
much searching for the right people, I found several people from
different states who I consider my most loyal and trustworthy friends.
To some people this book will be just another scandalous piece of
fiction, but when you are done I think you will think otherwise. I
always felt my brother deserved to live and what better way to let him
live his life than to end mine. I was lonely, depressed, in bad health
and my numerology chart said that this was the time for it to come to
end. Anyone who studies numerology will understand, those who don't may
want to look into it. All of the facts (and there are many) even the
experts will say they are more than coincidences. I no longer give away
Cadillacs or expensive pieces of jewelry because I am nothing more than a
man who had a very famous brother. I am not a great literate (I never
wrote my own songs), but I am not illiterate either. The perfect day
August 16, 1977, 1 + 9 + 7 + 7 = 24, my age backwards (42), the facts go
on and on. But my true reasons for the book are for my fans. My death
was not a hoax! To my fans, please forgive me, my brother deserved to
live, he was with me constantly (spiritually). My life would not be the
same had he lived at birth. This was my way of giving him life, and
corny as it sounds. The Colonel took this secret to his grave. He was a
loyal friend. But I will no longer stand by and have people like Gail
Brewer tell you stories that are pure fiction. This book written by a
true friend will help you realize why I did what I did. - The Truth
About Elvis Aron Presley In His Own Words. (2001). My fascination with
the idea of a hoax about death was when Jim Morrison died July 3rd,
1971. Although I saw no correlation (he died at age 27) I was astounded
that as famous as he was the body was just closed up and shipped out.
Now I don't know all the facts concerning his death. I thought it
awfully strange that no autopsy was performed (or so I thought) and just
forgotten about. There were a lot of rumors about his death. I noticed
he was born on the 8th day. Born in 1944 = 1-8 and died in 1971 = 1-8.
Remember my comeback in 1968? 1+9+6+8 = 24. Obviously, I was no longer
24, so I reversed the age to 42. The next time that number had any
relevance was 1977 (1+9+7+7 = 24 when I would be 42. Numerology can and
does play an important part of my life and we knew that would have to be
the date. Most people if they know what to look for will find
significance in the forms of numbers in all of my movies! Example:
gravestone in " Loving You" (year) 1878 = ? (1+8+7+8 = 24). You have to
look at the movies. My hero James Dean died at the age of 24, but I was
on top of the world then and wanted to live. - The Truth About Elvis
Aron Presley In His Own Words. (2001). I will start about 1974 when the
thought first came to me about faking my death. I have always been
fascinated with the occult and other spiritual things. When I first saw a
wax dummy of myself made by a Mr. Cooper I was fascinated with it. For
some time I had thought if it was possible? Could I pull this thing off?
I had asked Mr Cooper if he could make another wax dummy for me. He
said he could. I in turn said I wanted him to do it and keep it strictly
confidential. When I had mentioned it to a very few close friends (Joe
Esposito, Larry Geller) they did not think I was serious. I was tired of
being Elvis Presley, my health was deteriorating. I just couldn't keep
up. My finances were floundering because of my daddy's poor business
ventures. I was at my wit's end. As the years progressed I had my ups
and downs which are pretty well documented in other books. I also had
two detectives from Colorado who I trusted immensely. Originally the
date was 1976 according to my numerology charts but I chickened out. A
pact was made on the grounds of Graceland one night, hands placed over
hands that this secret would never be spoken of outside this room. I
picked four (4) of us initially and to this day all have kept the
secret. I also know when this book reaches the bookstores people (my
loyal friends) will be heartbroken. They took care of me and convinced
others that I was no longer alive. In reality Elvis Presley died that
day and my twin brother "Jesse" came to life, living in hiding but as a
normal human being. I skip around because I am writing stream of
consciousness. My own Daddy bless his soul never knew the truth. Little
Lisa was told months later and explained to her she would not see me
much. The Colonel took this secret to his grave. Many people believe me
to still be alive but I was told in the beginning there would be no
contact in order for this to work. I go thru a lot of ups and downs
since 1977 and have lived in many states but I insisted I needed to be
in a warm climate. My personal thoughts are that my fans will
understand. That is very important to me. I just could not face myself
any more after seeing myself in the mirror and that is where Larry
Geller came in. He asked if he could write a book, and I gave him my
blessing. "If I Can Dream" is the title and I like his book. He had
filled my head with spiritual thoughts and made me believe we could pull
this off. If I had stayed longer I think I would have been booed off
the stage. That is why I chose the date 8-16-77. Do you know how many
famous people passed away on that date? The great Robert Johnson died on
8-16 and he was born in 1935! Babe Ruth, and Bela Lugosi and many
others. I must say I was very nervous that day 8-16. But it had to be
done before I went on the road where I would not have been able to pull
it off. Did you know there are secret compartments in Graceland that
very few people know about! A few like Vester would joke about my being
alive but no one took him serious. Many of my friends would ask if I
were still alive and they have their doubts but as it was I might have
died broke and just a shell of myself. I was given an injection that
looked like I was dead but the people closest to me knew better. Believe
me I had my doubts that this could be pulled off. But it did and I
became Jesse, just a poor white southern boy who didn't sing a lick of
anything. I feel bad my Daddy wasn't allowed to know but it just
couldn't be done. I better go now and collect my thoughts to tell you
the rest next time. - The Truth About Elvis Aron Presley In His Own

He thought he had a chicken neck
Lansky Brothers owner & Founder interposed dressed all the big Blue Players of the Day. Bb King, Howling wolf, Ray Charles, THOUSANDS. When Elvis went to prom Lansky's dressed him. It was Lansky's founder who showed Elvis at 17 to pop his collar. If you go to Lansky's in Memphis on Beale Street the founders son will show you photos and tell you all about it. 🥰 Bill Belew (sp?) Says the reason he picked the huge collars and sleeves were to inspire an Edwardian Prince type feel and frame his perfect face. He wanted to do a spin off on the already popular pointed collars of the 1970's. That is who designed his off stage wear too. You can totally see the edwardian feel in the baby blue suit from the Madison Square garden press confrence.
The Peacock was his favorite jumpsuit you fools.
Where do these people get their information 🤔🤨🥴🤢
No offense to the lady presenter here... but you actually thought that back in the day they might NOT have kept Elvis's jumpsuits for prosperity. That it was actually possible someone would have thrown them in the bin or given them to goodwill, REALLY???..
Jumpsuits worn by the greatest entertainer on the planet, jumpsuits that cost thousands and thousands to make and are NOW valued at nearly half a million or more each!.. Get a grip girl!
We should have known that Elvis was having difficulties when he started dressing in those gaudy ornate peacock outfits.
the jumpsuit BLACK MATADOR only in '74 and NEVER in '75. The sundial suit was not Elvis's favorite, it was just the one that fit him and also Elvis did not really want to be in new suits. This girl is supposed to be a guide and does not know much about . AS ALWAYS THE ELVIS FAN ARE TREATED AS IF WE WERE FOOLISH
