Elvis: The Comeback Special (1968)
I saw the 1968 comeback special when it was first aired!

I was only eight years old when NBC aired the show on December 3rd, 1968! I remember the cable(CATV as it was known back then) was not yet installed at our housing development so my mom(RIP) drove me to my older sister's house because I kept driving her nuts with questions about 'The King' and his music. My sister had also just gotten a brand-new RCA color set..that night I pretty much found out just what a talented performer Elvis Aron Presley was. And being all of eight years old, I thought the black leather pants and jacket he wore were really cool..and oh yeah, all the young women surrounding him near the stage..I still remember it, one of the coolest things about my childhood, seeing that special.
