Elvis Presley (1968 Comeback Special) Singing:Very powerful and dramatic performance by Elvis in this TV show. Most people do not know that even though Elvis was known as the "King of Rock and Roll" that he almost always insisted on singing a Gospel song at his performances.

He also served his country in uniform when drafted into the army after he was already famous. |
