In 1958, Elvis Presley met Joe Esposito in Germany during his tour of duty for the U.S. Army. Elvis and Joe became close friends, and for the next 19 years, Joe was Elvis' right hand man, his most trusted confidante, and in charge of running the day-to-day life of the world's biggest superstar.

From Army buddy to bookkeeper; best friend to best man at Elvis' wedding; road manager for thousands of live performances; they were together for 26 of Elvis' 31 feature films. Ultimately pallbearer at Elvis' funeral - "Diamond Joe" Esposito, as Elvis affectionately called him, was the highest ranking member of Elvis' inner circle. A true insider who was there for it all - and what a wild and wonderful ride it was!

For the first time ever, "Diamond Joe" shares his most intimate memories and incredible stories of life with the King of Rock and Roll. Offering an exclusive insider's glimpse of the real Elvis Presley, on stage and off, including hundreds of rare personal photos, newsreels, film clips, interviews, home movies and much more - including Joe's account of exactly what happened on the tragic day of Elvis' death. Hosted and narrated by "Diamond Joe" himself -.. his best friend remembers.

Special Features: 42 MINS OF EXTRA FOOTAGE

The bonus chapters include a poignant look at reaction to Elvis' death, the annual Candlelight Vigil in Memphis and Elvis buys a Chimp! The section on Elvis impersonators didn't impress while the 'world's biggest Elvis fan', Paul B. Macleod, is just passable. A chapter on the 'world's nuttiest Elvis fan' has to be seen to be believed. A surprise, quality offering worthy of a place in any fan's collection.

Elvis Presley Video Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.

This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
