Elvis Pearl Harbor Benefit Concert 1961

maybe everyone but me knew that there is a recording of this ENTIRE concert and it’s incredible!

Elvis is just as goofy with the jokes and changing lyrics and laughing while he’s singing as he is later in his career 🤣

And the fans!!!! They are absolutely roaring their joy

Listening to it felt like the closest I’ll ever get to being at an early Elvis concert until we get that damn time machine

Given that it’s from 60 years ago and was not a professional recording it’s amazing how well you can hear him

I’m going to make this post because the Republicans have, and are going to continue to try to make Elvis some sort of symbol for their hatred masked as American pride. Yes, Elvis was patriotic. He served in the military, he wore patriotic symbols, he revered the police, and even wrote directly to Nixon and met with him to see how he could help make our country a better place.

But the Republicans of the past are not the Republicans of now. Hell, even the Bush era is completely different from the fascist cult we are witnessing. Elvis would NEVER support racism and fascism (just to name a few) both of which are embodied and encouraged by Trump and his administration. The man who loved gospel music, lived in one of most racially progressive cities, was constantly criticized and then drafted by our own government for pushing back against segregation, and was deeply inspired by and connected to the black artists around him. The man who was generous with his wealth and power, rather than hoarding and abusing it to stroke his own ego. The man who was humble to the very end.

Elvis was and continues to be a controversial figure and a feather of pride in the American cap, but don’t let the bastards try to tarnish his passion and patriotism. That’s what cults do, they take symbols and bastardize them for their own gain. Elvis will always be a symbol of love and authenticity during a time of immense division and violence, and now here we are, at another point of division and violence in our country. I hope we will all find comfort in his legacy and history as we continue to deal with whatever insanity and hardship is ahead.
