Customer Reviews of Elvis - The Great Performances, Vol. 3 - From the Waist Up
surprisingly good Despite other reviews, I thought this video third in the series was actually very good. I had already purchased the first and second in the series and enjoyed both very much. The reviews on the third keep me from purchasing it sooner. I am so glad I bought it. First of all, it contains performances from all three Ed Sullivan shows, including songs not heard on the first two videos. I really enjoyed seeing Elvis sing "Love Me" and how he really worked the audience. Other songs include "Peace in the Valley" and "Love me Tender" which he does not do on the first two. Also it has Elvis speaking to the audience after the songs which I hadn't seen before. In the beginning it does repeat some of the same footage from the first two and the segment on "Bo Didly" was to me not necessary. Bono from U2 was ok as the narriator. All in all I think this video is a must to complete the series.
The worst of the series
Looking at the boxed set as a whole, it is very good, and spans Elvis' career from 1956 to 1977. Looking at this disc, however, there are many repeat performances, most incomplete and unimpressive. As it happens this disc is narrated not by George Klein, but by Bono of U2. In my opinion he needs to learn when to shut up. Get the boxed set instead of this individual disc. Or if you're cheap and only want one disc, get volume 2. It features songs from Aloha From Hawaii, the Dorsey Shows, and more. I reccomend buying the boxed set though because it gives a better look at Elvis as an entertainer. But don't expect much out of this disc except chopped up performances and extensive narration. What a waste.
Can I please gve this 3 1/2 stars?
Volume 3: From the Waist up shows Elvis Presley only from the waist up on tv shows like Milton Berle and The Dorsey Brothers, Stage Show. But the one problem with volume 3 is (and I have even mentioned it in my review of Elvis The Great Performances) that there is a son not perfromed by Elvis Presley. And it's called "Bo Diddley" and for some reason the song is in Volume 3. and it also repeats Love Me Tender. And also Blue Suede Shoes is repeated on this one too. So this the one that of all three volumes that derseves *** 1/2. Don't Be Cruel is also repeated on here as well. And also volume 3 fouses on songs performed on Ed Sullivan's show. And this one has no songs (at all) for any of his movies. I think Bo Diddley, Love Me Tender, Don't Be Cruel should have been cut from Volume 3. Let this be a warning if you have never seen any of these volumes before.
