Elvis ' 68 Comeback Special' Mug with a hip shaking selection of 60's Retro Sweets.
Elvis, The King, The King of Rock 'n' Roll, Elvis the Pelvis, The Hillbilly Cat... call him what you may, but he goes down in history as the biggest selling individual artist of all time, and still going strong.
Elvis, starring Elvis Presley, was the title of a 1968 United States television special. Sponsored by The Singer Sewing Machine Company, it aired on December 3, 1968 on the NBC television network. The special is commonly referred to as the '68 Comeback Special, because of subsequent developments in Presley's career, but the soundtrack album was released simply as NBC-TV Special. It was directed by Steve Binder and produced by Binder and Bones Howe
Presley's informal jamming in front of a small audience in the '68 Comeback Special is regarded as a forerunner of the so-called 'Unplugged' concept, later popularized by MTV.
The edited broadcast of December 3 - combining the big, choreographed numbers, lavish sets and some of the informal live sessions - was an enormous success. The show was the highest-rated television special of the year.
