Whether or not you’re a fan of the genre, it’s universally acknowledged that Elvis Presley, the rock n’ roll legend, was one of the most extraordinarily talented artists to ever walk the earth.
It’s a statement that very few would dispute.
Despite his untimely death, the King bestowed upon the world many years of enchanting performances on stage.
While numerous video clips capture Elvis during the pinnacle of his career, there’s one in particular that I believe holds special significance for people. It represents the final recording of an Elvis performance, and, frankly, it sends shivers down my spine.
The song Elvis is performing is “Unchained Melody,” before an audience in Rapid City, South Dakota. The first time I witnessed it, my skin erupted in goosebumps!
Regrettably, Elvis passed away just six weeks after this recording. At the tender age of 42, he left behind an enduring legacy of music and legend that will live on eternally.
