Here are a few celebs that i have had the pleasure of meeting over the years...
FAVORITE ELVIS MOVIES
I love all the early films, Love Me Tender, Jailhouse Rock, Loving You, King Creole, great songs in all those movies,i don't like many of the 60's films, apart from, Wild In The Country, Flaming Star, Gi Blues & Blue Hawaii, the films went a bit down hill from there, until the 68 Comeack special, brilliant & his voice was fantastic,& of course Elvis On Tour,TTWII,Aloha From Hawaii,got them all on DVD brilliant.
FAVORITE ELVIS SONGS
I loved his songs of the 50's, the rocky raunchy voice, nobody could touch him, i think his later songs like Burning Love, Suspicious Minds, Wonder of You, In The Ghetto & many more to mention were great to.
Elvis was the best, he could sing anything, Gospel, rock, rock n roll, blues, C&W, Ballads, there will never be anybody to touch him, he was a 1 off, he was the king.
