According to his drummer at the time, D.J. Fontana (per Rolling Stone Magazine) “Elvis was hardly ever nervous – but he was then,” – “We played a couple of songs, and it got loose after a while, and it turned out fine. He just had been out of the public eye for a long time.”

As one person said, “Thanks. One of his best performances. Nobody can compete with the King. He is a legend that’s why he is still in the public eye. He is unforgettable. I remember you today. Long live the King”. And another viewer recognized that there were many dimensions to this act “What happens when you take the best vocal performance talent, pair him with the best costume designer, the best writer, the best director, and the best musicians? This happens”.
