Tom Brown (Graceland host) and Angie Marchese (Graceland Archivist) share awesome details from the Graceland archives regarding Elvis’s ‘68 Comeback Special. This video was recorded by @CC_Rider on August 14, 2023.#graceland #elvisweek
I think Elvis would be blown away to know how much has been done to preserve his memory for future generations, not to mention the movies, museums, events, etc. He truly believed no one was going to remember him.
@26:02 that was two days before I was born. That us crazy...!! This was so great. Sorry you had some people walking into your shot. Aleast we could still hear what they were saying. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. 👍
I’m grateful for so much footage! I live in Australia and have wanted to go to Graceland since I was a young girl. I hope to go to Elvis week in the next few years. Thank you! 💫⚡️
I’m a huge fan of elvis Presley’s I love 💕 elviss music and flims too elvis will always be the king 👑 of rock and roll 🎸 to Angie is an amazing archivist for Graceland my dream is to visit Graceland and communicate with elvis and his family and friends too tcb ⚡️6:41pm. Thanks tcb ⚡️10:39am
This was so informative. Thank you so much for posting it. I fully understand why Parker was frantic to have a Christmas song in the special because a contract is a contract and breaking a contract could have amounted to millions of dollars being lost in a court case. It could have broken Elvis financially - it would be intriguing for me to know how Parker managed to stop anything of the sort from happening. The other letter to the Radio Stations and how Parker managed to not have to pay a dime for advertising the 68 Special was quite simply pure Grade A 100% Genius. Wow! Whatever you think of Parker, you cannot dispute that he was a true blue, highly successful businessman. Wow!
Angie is the archivist for Graceland, Tom is a host that shows you what is going on with Graceland. If you stay at Graceland 's hotel, there is a channel that shows you the interior of Graceland. He's the host!
Wow, this has some great info in it! I'm only about half way through watching, but thank you for posting this. Also, to Angie's left, is that an Elvis cup with flowers in it? I never thought of doing that and I have a ton of Elvis cups! LOL! Can't tell, but it looks like a cup. Hope you're having a great time. Thanks again for this video.
@@CC_Rider That was the BEST! Tom Brown reading that letter from Parker about the Christmas song not being in the special was hilarious. I also loved the end where they talk about how they have physical copies of letters they can refer back to. Not like today where technology has taken over and everything is emailed or texted...not that I'm complaining about that. This video also reminded me I need to get a current TV with Elvis on the cover from the 68 Special. Thank you again for this video. Very interesting stuff in my opinion.
@@CC_Rider Can't wait! But enjoy yourself. Don't rush to put the videos up. There is lots of time. Dang, I wish I could be Baz Luhrmann and spend six months with the Elvis archives. Wow. 😵
Avez vous invité les cousins germains d’Elvis, ses frères ? Il adorait sa vraie famille de sang. Eux au moins le connaissent bien ils ont grandi à Gràceland 🤷🏻♀️🥴!!!
She is Angie Marchese. She handles Elvis history and exhibits at Graceland. I think her official title is Vice President of Archives and Exhibits. He is Tom Brown. He hosts a lot of the goings-on during Elvis Week.
Has this what it has come to ? Boycott Graceland leave Elvis and Lisa Marie in peace !! Will never go there again in respect of this talented icon he doesn’t need this !!
What about the original boots, glasses, scarfs,watches, clothes.. bring out real stuff.. oh Wait a minute..... Put on your white gloves... Ooh ooh ooh!! Something may melt!!!!
Not Impressed :Liked Linda Thompson :But this Years Anniversary on the King WAS NOT up to par. Where was "new owner "Riley Keough" ??? (Read my name on my Profile) Hope things get Better,or Maybe ,who knows stop the Vigils (have been to some) this was Sad..
Elvis Presleys twin brother Jessie Presley the first born male child is "NOT" buried at Graceland with the Presley family members, the reason being they cannot find the body or grave of Jessie Presley, will Jessie Presley be one of the Great Signs from heaven spoken of in the book of (St.luke 21;11) "And Great Signs shall there be from Heaven, The coming of Big Brother, That's right "Big Brother" is coming, Fool's we should have knowen, "Sincerely Your's", Joe Mankiewicz, "The Prophet"...
