    Elvis Presley Fans!

    Some people know me on here and some have no clue.

    I am one of the biggest Elvis fans on the planet (next to the Beatles, KISS, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and a whole spew of other things.)

    But ELVIS was the king, the originator and nobody will ever step in his shoes ever. If someone makes a crack about Justin Beiber being the next ELVIS I'm going to flip.
    That dude who made the ELVIS "IF I Can Dream" white suit Mego made me wish I had the ability to do that. It's on my attempt list. If it ever turns up for sale somebody key me in.

    Besides how cool ELVIS is (or was) there is nothing that he has done that I can say I hate.
    This guy here has made a website where you can stream the majority of all of ELVIS's records.

    http://www.retro-cafe.com/elvis/music/

    My favorite record always and will be ELVIS 1973 (The Fool album) but I'm sure others have favorites. Enjoy!

        Check out Boss's Thread in the Customs he's making an mego size Elvis Head...

        I'm a HUGE Elvis Fan, My first Lp was Elvis Golden records and i was hooked ever since, My wife about two christmas ago bought me an Ipod with every Elvis song loaded into it best present I ever got.

        I don't have a fav album as Elvis really recorded singles and they put them together to work as an album....but my Fav recordings are his Sun sessions.

            I right up there with you! On the cycle ride to the mego meet this year, I was listening to the all ELVIS station on XM radio. 8 hours of the King! I also have a 3 hour playlist on my iPod that I listen too sometimes when I am playing poker and want to tune everyone out. My favorite is the Aloha from Hawaii concert. That was his peak. You really should check this guy out if he ever gets to your area

            Shawn Klush

            I have seen probably 50 or more ELVIS tribute artists in my life, and most of them are jokes, but Shawn is the real deal. No one will ever be close, but Shawn is as close as you get. A Shawn Klush concert makes you really feel like you are at one of the early 70's Vegas concerts. He looks like him, sounds like him and works the audience like him. You have to see him to believe it. And in 9 days I get to see it! Then again at the Pocono's ELVIS Fest in October. Good times!

              Thanks Wrathdemon if it was my If I Can Dream fig you were referring to.

              I was contacted a few times about selling it but like you, I'm a HUGE Elvis fan and in my mind, there's no denying he was the King in 1968.

                  "It's Impossible" from that album is one of my favorite tunes.

                          I like Elvis, but I don't love him.

                          My fav part of his carear was the 50's and 70's

                          In the 50's he was raw rock and roll

                          In the 70's he was cool fat-Elvis (which I like)

                          I hated the 60's when he did most of his crappy movies and his music got lame

                              Colonel Parker really took advantage of Elvis and really it was from 66 to 69 that Elvis did crappy movies. from 60-65 he did a lot of fun goofy no brainer movies that made a lot of money.

                              The music in that late period was just horrible and Elvis seemed out of touch with the times....until the comeback special......

                              Elvis didn't really get Fat till the mid 70's...Elvis battled his weight even in the 60's but by 74 on he got really heavy reaching a max of 265 pounds...sadly towards the end Elvis was a shadow of what he once was and pretty much was the first Elvis impersonator.......
