Elvis: Aloha From Hawaii

Elvis returned to Hawaii for what became his last great performance. It was broadcast around the world via satellite. Elvis is 38 and looking fit. It is hard to believe he would be dead in just over four years! Burning Love is followed by The Beatles' Something. Fever sizzles and is remarkably relevant for a song that was a hit in the 1950s. There is very little clowning here like there was in Elvis: That's The Way It Is. Elvis is thoroughly confident, and his band is polished and tight after having played together 3 or 4 years. It is all business as Elvis moves from one dramatic cover to another. Song selection seems to reflect his recent divorce.
