Looks fantastic!!
Given that this movie is over 50 years old, I have seen this many many times. But I have never seen. It looks so good. And this is only on DVD not Blu-ray or 4K. It looks awesome.

Elvis: A Must Have
I love Elvis. What more can I say? This shows Elvis at the peak of his sexiness; healthy and oh-so-talented. Over forty years ago and the material is still entertaining and fresh. I have seen many many concerts. It has always amazed me how Elvis could hold an audience’s attention with just himself on stage and only minimal backup from his backup singers and band. Other entertainers needed flamboyant fireworks, glitzy backdrops, scantily clad dancers, etc. I was blessed to have attended two of his concerts in the early 70’s and there was a reason why the announcer always said at the end of his shows ” Ladies and Gentlemen, Elvis has left the building. Thank you and Good Night.” Otherwise there would have been a stampede of people climbing up onto the stage to go after him. Let me try and explain. Elvis always gave his all at his performances, often going over the expected amount of time. At one of the concerts, as much as I was enjoying it, I noticed that the performance was going well over thirty five minutes over the allotted time. I glanced over at some of his backup singers to see how they were faring wondering if maybe they may be in need of a pee break or something. Elvis was still going strong. But no, they were intent on focusing their complete attention on their boss who was single handedly orchestrating the entire show. Elvis commandeered the show, setting the pace and tempo throughout. He decided how long the show was and when it was over. Elvis had a way of noticing things like when an audience member (myself) might be in a little bit of danger of being crushed by other over exuberant fans trying to clamor over her in an effort to get closer to see Elvis. Elvis was not above stopping singing and effectively stopping the entire show to gently and humorously admonish the offenders. It left me in awe that he noticed and he cared and he actually did something about it. I still think of that day. It was things like this that made him more than an entertainer. By the end of the show, when I and the rest of the audience realized that he had left the stage and wasn’t coming back out, I had a sudden urge to go after him and drag, pull or coax him back out. It was as if “No, he can’t just leave. He was just getting started.” Then just when I’m preparing to get my purse and go after him, the announcer makes that announcement and I suddenly realize he’s already gone so therefore there is nothing I can do. So I sit in stunned disbelief and try to concentrate on my clapping.

Lean Performance of a Professional Singer and Entertainer
Having been born in the last year that Mr. Crosby worked for Paul Whiteman and the year before he began his sensational career on radio and in the Coconut Grove and Paramount Theater in NYC, where he was Emcee, kibitzing on stage with a vaudevillian named Bob Hope, during the latter’s act; being only a five year old, listening, no doubt, to the Major Bowes Amateur Hour (everybody’s family favorite) when the singing group, which included Frank Sinatra, did not win the first prize; I took Elvis Presley in stride and, so far as I can recall, saw only a few of his TV appearances and concerts, and a couple of his movies (one because it co-starred everyone’s favorite of the day, Mary Tyler Moore), I approached this DVD, with no nostalgia and very little acquaintance with its Star. Naturally, I had heard of his meteoric rise, his being drafted, his successful film career and, what else, the hysterical females, but I came to it without the sense of nostalgia and ‘ those guys from my time’ which a Crosby or Sinatra show would elicit.I was surprised and pleased. What I got was a straight club act by a professional singer and entertainer, who skillfully held the audience in his hand, through the appeal of his singing and the strength of his accompaniment. There was almost nothing of the glitz one sees in the massive, glittering, technologically explosive acts, in which a contemporary Star, plays his/her Central Role.I cannot tell, as I can immediately for Crosby and Sinatra, at what stage of his career he has arrived by the sound of his voice and his physical manner, but, it is apparent that this guy is in good voice and in control of his stage and his audience. It was quite enjoyable, although most of the songs were new to me (or had made no particular impression on me at the time).So speaking only to those who are not fans, old or new, of this very important figure in popular music of the 20th Century, take a look, don’t come with preconceptions built on what you might have heard or read from your elders, sit back and, I think, there is a good chance this guy will please you, whomsoever your real favorites are: the performers of today, your day.

J’ai apprécié la qualité son et image, meilleurs que dans le DVD que je possédais déjà . Fan d’Elvis ou découvreur, c’est un incontournable. Un véritable documentaire en immersion dans la tournée des concerts d’Elvis en 1970 ! Unique : quel chanteur, quel performeur et quels musiciens ! On est au coeur de l’équipe et on partage leur bonheur sur scène et dans les coulisses ! Quelle époque ! A voir et à revoir.

Refleja el mejor momento en la carrera de Elvis, en mi opinión

Ich bin zu jung um überhaupt die Chance gehabt zu haben, Elvis live sehen zu können.Diese Blu Ray zeigt mir aber, was hätte sein können, nämlich eine der besten Shows aller Zeiten.Original Aufnahmen von mehreren Elvis Shows aus dem 70ern, in toller Bildqualitat, zu einem Konzert zusammengeschnitten. Ein Traum von einer Doku.Zu Beginn gibt es noch Szenen aus dem Proberaum die Elvis unverfälscht mit seiner Band zeigen, was will man mehr?Der Konzertteil selber ist fantastisch und lässt einen die Bühnenpräsenz, die Elvis auszeichnete, selbst spüren. Das perfekte Zusammenspiel mit seiner grandiosen Band, dem Orchester und den Backgroundsängerinnen ist einfach nur überragend und ein groÃer Spaà anzusehen und natürlich anzuhören.Elvis Crowd Control wurde wahrscheinlich nur noch von Freddy Mercury übertoffen und die Extase die er bei Erwachsenen Menschen auslösst, kenne ich eigentlich nur bei Boygroups und ihren pupertierenden Fans.Nach dem Sehen war ich schon etwas traurig, dass ich Elvis wirklich niemals live sehen werde.Was für ein Erlebnis das gewesen sein muss?!

Being a new Elvis fan, I have been binging on everything I can find. This concert is no exception. Whether you are a new recruit or a veteran follower of this magnetic guy – you will not be disappointed!! Although the 1968 comeback was awesome, it was incredible seeing Elvis perform with all his band in front of a live audience. Being born a decade too late, I never had the chance to see him live but this definitely makes you feel you are right there. Being 52 years old makes absolutely no difference to this show. Elvis gives you EVERYTHING you could ever need or want. He may inspire contemporary artists, but none of them can hold a match stick to him in terms of vocal range, charisma, performance and diligence. It is so awesome seeing Elvis rehearse with his crew – you receive a deeper understanding of his work ethic and consumate professionalism in conjunction with his outrageous sense of humour. If you want quality entertainment then the only time you will be disappointed is when the closing credits roll. Fortunately the advantage we have over the live audience is the pleasure of watching it all over again. Trust me, you WILL want to. 🙂
