I do see a resemblance in that first picture especially. Oh man - I used to love Little Joe. I remember back in the days when there were only 3 television channels (yes, I know I'm ancient), we used to watch Bonanza every Sunday night, along with Lassie and the Ed Sullivan show. God - I AM old.

I love Bonanza too.
How can love survive in such a graceless age?
Well, it would have been Elvis's 74th birthday today, and I've just found the perfect excuse to start a thread about him.
As it is, I've made hundreds of screen captures of him from a few DVDs that I have, and I'd like to celebrate his birthday today by posting two of them.
I've been looking forward to the chance to share them with you all, especially those of you who are Elvis fans.
This first one is from Elvis's "'68 Comeback" Deluxe DVD set, featuring the King doing his thing in the 6pm "Sit Down" section of the show. I made this screencap on his memoriam last year, 16 August:
OOOOH, look at his intensity and the sheer beauty of the man... Look at those eyelashes and those lips!
This one is from a rehearsal scene in the 2001 "Special Edition" of the original 1970 documentary, "Elvis: That's The Way It Is". Elvis laughs as his microphone collapses while he rehearses "That's All Right" with his band at the MGM studio in Los Angeles:
I love him when he laughs. So natural, so spontaneous... and so darn gorgeous. Sigh...

I've got a peaceful, easy feeling
And I know Glenn won't let me down
Although I'm not really a fan, how can anyone not appreciate what Elvis brought to music. And yes, he was gorgeous.

And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
It's a perfect occupation for me.
Great tribute to a fantastic entertainer and gorgeous man who is sorely missed. Thanks, Mrs. F!
Not a great big fan like you, Mrs F, but I do enjoy a lot of his music. And he was definitely a gorgeous guy and was, to me, the King of Rock & Roll. He left a big void.
I've been to Graceland. Such a beautiful and unique home.
Great caps, too. RIP Elvis.

MF I know you are doing your best to convert me to Elvis fandom and certainly in terms of his music you are succeeding. He certainly brought a lot to music in his relatively short life. As regards looks. There's no denying he looks incredibly well in those screen caps you have posted, particularly your first one, but as you know I only wear one star on my sleeve.
But I hope you have a great night celebrating tonight. Have a blast!!
