The Elvis I Knew-Larry Geller Interview 

Some people give Larry a lot of grief, but if he happens to read these comments, I would like to thank him, for being one person that could talk to Elvis on the deepest levels of thought and spirituality, and that had to be a huge comfort for Elvis to have that connection to someone.

I wish Larry would make a hours long audio book 📖 I could listen to him all night ❤ such a calming voice

Larry wrote wonderful books about Elvis, he was certainly one of Elvis very faithful friends.

‘Elvis was wide open’…Yes…and he keeps inviting us in…💎❤️

I like Larry, he and Elvis had a great spiritual connection, Larry was a great friend to Elvis and was the last person to say goodbye to Elvis, the last man to touch him at his service, he touched his Forehead before his coffin closed. I understand the need Elvis had, he was Awakening to his souls purpose . I’m glad Larry appeared during this time for Elvis . They helped each other in ways that only spiritual awakened individuals understand⚡️🙏❤️. Thanks for sharing .

Unless someone is putting Elvis down I appreciate hearing from anyone from his world and time. Thank you, Vicki

I do feel Larry is a good man, and truly cared for the well being of Elvis. To Elvis Larry must have seemed like a kindred spirit, especially compared to the rest of that gang. It's hard to comprehend at this point in time to who really cared about Elvis and who didn't. The one thing that bothers me the most is the book burning incident. However, I'm sure Elvis replaced all he had to burn.

Great interview Steve I have listened to a lot of interviews with Larry and he always came across as a very sincere and genuine guy . I can see why Elvis took a liking to him and could have endless spiritual conversations with him to try and understand why he was Elvis Presley , looking forward to the next interview Steve .

Such an engaging interview with Larry Geller, Steve. I could listen to Larry all day talking about Elvis. Yes, in the 1960s exploring other religions outside of Christianity was frowned upon, but it just shows what a caring, lovable, enquiring mind that Elvis had in exploring other spiritual avenues. A really good interview, Steve, looking forward to Part 2 of your interview with Larry Geller next Wednesday.

I read that Elvis other guys weren’t to keen on Larry Geller, also the colonel wasn’t to happy about the influence Larry had on Elvis. He seems a really nice guy. I think Elvis just needed some one to understand where he was coming from. I can’t wait for the second part of the interview. Thanks Steve.

Great interview Steve. I really enjoyed the interview. He’s never said a bad word about Elvis that I’ve heard. I asked him a question on Twitter & he was very kind. See ya next interview.

Wow, Steve, what a coup you got here, Larry has a voice that just makes you sit up and listen. Larry truely was a kindred soul, he was the lost key that allowed Elvis to unlock his mind, no one around him had taken the time or even wanted to explore that side of him before. The guys around Elvis were never and could never have understood Elvis,s needs and yearnings to open himself up mind body and soul, with Larry it sounds like he could do just that. They both clearly enriched each others lives, feeding off each other, often being ridiculed and scorned for their closeness and deep spiritual, religious and interlectual yearnings. An inquisitive mind should never be starved, Elvis truely was a complexity of multi faceted brilliance, and it went way beyond his artistic prowess, it was the essence of his very being, Larry connected with that complexity immediately, and evoked a deep and meaningful reaction within Elvis,s inner psyche. I cannot wait for part two Steve. Thanks.

What a wonderful friend and spiritual advisor Larry was to Elvis. I love listening to him, what a sincere and soulful gentleman. Much Love to Larry Gellar♥️

Great interview! Larry loved Elvis and he was a good friend!

Steve. Fantastic. Interview. Why because we know he was close to Elvis. Off and on. Loved it Larry can sure tell a story. Awesome. T c b. Canada

Thank you Larry for looking out for Elvis 💕💗💕🇦🇺

Wow Steve that was great 👍thanks so much, I've loved every interview you have done, I was excited to hear Larry speak with you, I didn't know they crosses paths when Larry was young. And my god he cut for Peter Sellers, I'm a big fan of Peter Sellers and also Roy Orbison and other stars bet it was his dream job until he cut Elvis's hair. I'm so glad he decided to do the interview. Thanks Steve and Larry q👏👏👏👏

Hi Steve, Great interview!! I am So happy you got to speak to Larry Geller😊He was such a great friend to Elvis❤️Again I’m so happy you spoke to him I had tears in my eyes. Thanks again Steve and of course, Larry. Looking forward to Part 2😊God Bless you both xx❤️❤️

Fantastic interview ! Steve, thank you Elvis forever

Thank you so much Larry for this beautiful video you are a good man,all this crap that Priscilla and the guys said about you was said from jealousy because elvis did like you very much,he also said you had the kindest eyes,thank you and elvis fans love you

Larry has such a mesmerizing voice. Wonderful ASMR. 😴

Larry is one of the good guys 🙏👍 glad he was there for Elvis. Great interview!

Larry Geller è stato quasi sicuramente, il migliore amico di Elvis . Aveva un animo gentile e sensibile come Elvis e pet questo si sono subito capiti. Elvis aveva bisogno di dare spiegaxioni alle sue tante domande sul senso della vita, del perché accadono certi fatti...e Larry era pronto ad ascoltarlo e a rispondergli. Larry sembra essete ancora legato da ricordi affettuosi e di rispetto e ammirazione per Elvis . Grazie a Larry , saluti e cari auguri ❤❤❤

Wow, what a great story, can't wait for next weeks. Well done Steve!!

That was a phenomenal interview.

Great interview Steve... Awesome.... I love your interviews and you do such an awesome job buddy.

Lovely man! So glad you were able to connect with Larry, Steve, and Larry, so happy you had time to talk with us!

Great interview and so positive.

That was absolutely fantastic!!!! I enjoyed every minute!!! He’s such an eloquent speaker. I love how he describes Elvis. I truly believe Elvis was so complex, Larry brought out the searcher, the interested, the learned student. It’s a facet of Elvis and one that’s beautiful!!! I met Larry in 2009 and bought his book. He was fascinating to talk too. Real nice guy in person :) Looking forward to part 2 xxx

I really enjoyed that Steve. Larry has a soothing voice. I read If I Can Dream. I will have to check out those other books. Larry definitely had the looks and voice to be an actor. I look forward to the next installment. Cheers

Omg 😳 that was amazing. I know a bit about Larry but hearing him telling that story was just awesome. Jeez what a great time to be alive hey.

Fantastic Steve, looking forward to next week!

Larry Geller knows that Elvis wanted a print of Star Wars so he could watch it with his daughter, Lisa Marie. Three days before that, he had taken her, and his girlfriend Ginger Alden to see the then latest James Bond movie, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME. is this true ? did Elvis knew about the filmmakers George Lucas , Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola ?

Really enjoyed your interview! I think you always put your best step forward! Thank you!!

I'm going to enjoy listening to this when I have half hour free. Larry is my fave person connected to Elvis he was outside of the Memphis Mafia circle and many within have done him down over the years because he wasn't part of their group and because they had no interest in anything spiritual. Elvis learnt many things about himself and things spiritual from Larry. He shared things with Larry that he didn't share with anyone else and Larrys books are absolute must reads. If you don't read his books then you only know half the story. Even the Colonel wanted rid because he thought Elvis was getting ideas above his station.

I like the interview I wait impatiently the second part😄

I met Larry at Acton Town Hall, London in the Eighties, I believe. Nice fella

Enjoyed this video. I met many of the guys that were around Elvis in the last 25-30 years. Unfortunately, many of them are no longer with us. Larry Geller was one of the guys I did meet durning Elvis week in Memphis 1997. I have to tell you, my friend and I , could talk with him for hours and hours. He is a very calm, spiritual and caring individual. Thankfully, we took several photos with him. He was and still is an amazing gentleman.👍⚡️⚡️⚡️

Wow, Amazing👌can’t wait for the next week stories 🤗

Oh one more thing lol, I did get Larry's book the leaves one got it a few days back, once I've read Elvis destined to die, enjoying that book as well, all because of you Steve, sometimes I just can't thank you enough, I'll have to buy ya some more coffees eh love Chris xxxxx

Great that you finally got Larry Geller on the phone. He was probably one of the few people in Elvis' life who gave him the feeling to be understood in order for him to be able to open up. And without being ridiculed. He needed that so desperately at that point in his life, an outlet for things that were torturing him, finding answers. Another such person I believe was Ann Margret. Not sure If they were still together ... probably not ... I wish she would tell us little bit more ...😊

Wonderful! Thank you Steve for this. God Bless Larry for sharing this. Sorry I'm a little late to "catch up" with this wonderful interview. I'll soon get to part two. This is wonderful "stuff" for us Ultimate Elvis Fans. Larry and indeed you are great TCB people! once again many thanks!

Wow.... il.be watching this later 😃👍

WOW, what a great Part 1 interview; I can't wait to listen to Part 2. Thanks so much Steve! Larry fulfilled a need Elvis had that no one else ever did or could!

That was very interesting, thank you.

I can't wait for the second part! I was spellbound and it looks like you were too!

Hi Steve, what a fantastic interview that was! You are great getting an interview with Larry! I didn’t know that he had written all those books. I really didn’t know that much about Elvis and Larry’s relationship. What I want to say after listening to this interview is, one I can’t wait to hear the next part and two, I think Larry really loved Elvis as a friend! The way that he told his story is so interesting and so respectful that you can really tell that Larry was a good friend to Elvis. After hearing so many stories about the people who surrounded Elvis on a daily basis, it sounds like Larry was about the most honest friend that Elvis had. I look forward to hearing the part two of the interview. Also if Larry does read these remarks, there are so many things I would love to ask him about. Since that would never happen for me, I would so much like to say to Larry “Thank you for showing Elvis that you truly cared about him as a real person and that you showed him the love as a friend” Thank you Steve and Larry for such a warm interview and I look forward to hearing more!!

I like Larry's interviews If Elvis liked him he must be Alright guy

Please reach out to Larry to make audiobook about his best memories with Elvis

Very good interview! So happy to being able to listen to Larry after reading his books. I would like to thank him for being a confident to Elvis and to help him in his spiritual quest. I think Elvis found his purpose in life: uplifting people and spread kindness. You are still missed and loved Elvis!

Steve this is awesome brother I love to here Larry talk an want to tell u my wife got us tickets to go Graceland next month for our anniversary I have never been I’m so excited Steve u got the best Elvis channel on RU-vid man thanks ur Native American friend here from North Carolina

Excellent interview. Thanks for sharing!

Loved this Steve and Larry. Thankyou x

Мне очень симпатичен Ларри Геллер !!!

I’m taking my time with this Gem…love Larry 🤴🏻⚡️🎼

Hi Steve, I really enjoyed your interview with Larry Geller, looking forward to the 2nd part. Thank you.

Larry so respect E you can true friend he real talk about E so excited doing your hair.

Great interview, thank you !!!

I like Larry he must have some memories xxx

Fantastic interviewer.

Larry was never a full time employee with Elvis.

A great interview, Iv heard Larry in a few interviews although he was good for Elvis on his spiritual path..I don’t think he help him, he made him think to deeply and I don’t think Elvis needed that in his life,Elvis was so complex and he had a lot going on in his life I think maybe Larry made him think to deeply, just my opinion but Larry was a good person and you can tell he had great respect for Elvis 🙏🏻

Elvis Elvis King rock hell of rock 😀😀😃😃

Is larry geller still amoung us?

Great to see Larry finally agreed to be interviewed! Somehow I think Elvis would not refer to or label his friend as his Spiritual Advisor. I'd like to ask Larry if they discussed the same themes throughout the 70s because Priscilla in her book said they both burned all the books in a bonfire before turning over a new leaf in their 67 marriage.

Compelling interview.

Did you ever tell Elvis or did he ever remember the day you shook hands with him when you were a young teenager?

He sure talks alot, but I find it hard not to believe him! Think Larry is genuine. Thanks Steve.

larry was and is a decent bloke.he cared were others were just takers.shame on them.nice one larry youre a decent bloke.

Boy Larry loves to talk don't you think so. He really loved Elvis.

I watched an interview with this guy and described how he made sure he was the last person to touch Elvis before they closed the Casket. It turned my stomach and put me off him for life!

I’d love to hear Larry’s thoughts on the correlation of the mansion family and the salon .

Steve why do you think the energy from suspicious minds and poke salad annie faded from maybe 73/74 onwards and the movement wasn't the same, was it a conscious thing or illness maybe I've always wondered and the question never really gets asked when people get interviewed, or maybe we seen less film of the concerts in those last few years with clips now appearing on youtube, love to here your thoughts

The interview is better seeing the person talking ?

I dont know what to believe I was told by Charlie Hodge and a couple others Larry was just after what Elvis would give him. I.E. a new car jewelry ect... so I am not sure about his stories....trying to stay in the middle. If he says next week him and the Colonel were great friends and got along great then I know he isnt truthful. The Colonel didnt like him or trust him.

Larry seems to me a little weird it makes me think he just wanted to be famous I hope he was a good friend of elvis

Wonder if Larry speaks truth....???!!!!!

I Like Larry but the impression that he speaking to small children is kind of hard to get past

This man is faker than a 10 Bob note. No wonder the Colonel wanted this guy gone.

I'm sorry Steve, but this guy is so difficult too listen to. 🤮🤮🤮
