A lot of footage of Elvis from the 50s but not a lot of Las Vegas Elvis from the 70s. The reason why I bought this dvd.

This is your standard cheap documentary, usually along the £5 mark but this one is so much higher. The narrator has asoft r so Elvis is the 'King of Wock and Woll' and the so-called footageis a joke - firstly, this 'Vegas' footage is actually from Omaha, NEBRASKA IN '74. They how it without matching sound which is standard for this kind of thing, but they show it over and over - its only a few minutes long. Also, it's a complete life story (again - did you know Elvis used to drive a truck?) with Vegas getting emntioned somewhere toward the end. The so called 80 minutes running time is misleading - the main feature is just 45 minutes and is panned out with footage from the 50's tv shows which they own the rights to. The rest of the running time inlcudes the even worse bonus features... The 'Conversations with Elvis' is a mis-math of monologues from the live shows with.. wait for it... the same 1974 footage as you've just seen. Thinking they're clever, they put the Desert Storm rant on too, and one from 1969. Nothing new for the avid collector, and it's available better elsewhere for anyone who doesn't have it. The picture gallery is okay but no sound, so boring to watch as you can't skip chapters. It STILL RUNS LESS THAN THE ADVERTISED TIME. DON'T waste your money on this - use it on something better, give it to a charity - USE IT AS TOILET PAPER BUT DO NOT SPEND IT ON THIS JUNK. You'll regret it.... you've been warned!Read full review
Not as expected - not enough songs from Vegas period which is what I expected. Reasonable footage of early years. OK to watch.
Like this one as I like Elvis and the way he sings and the songs he sings. good old rock'n roll. a look into the past.
i bought this for my partner coz he loves elvis he is doing his own show so he will be learning some off his moves
