I saw Elvis at the Forum in 74’ when I was 17 years old. A friend had bought tickets for her mom to see him, but her mom was ill that night so I went in her place . At the time I wasn’t really an Elvis fan, I had just tagged along for something to do. That one night changed all that. He had such a presence. I will never forget the contagious sense of energy in that audience, it’s not something I can even describe. Whenever I hear his music now, the feeling of seeing him live comes right back. I am forever grateful for the experience.

I met Elvis when I was four, and he was SO nice! I fell in love with him that night. His voice was AMAZING and sent chills through my body. He put me on stage and asked me several questions. I asked if I could read his playlist, and Elvis asked, “You can read?” I told him my mom put me in front of the television all day and I watched Sesame Street and various other educational shows. My mother was so embarrassed! He allowed me to choose three songs and he said he’d play them all consecutively. I chose In the Ghetto, I Can’t Help Falling in Love, and A Little Less Conversation. I was still sitting atop the stage when Elvis asked if I knew what the last song meant. I said, “It means the man wants the woman to shut up and he wants more sex!” My mother was so humiliated that her face was bright red! Elvis told my parents, “Y’all are gonna have trouble with her. This little lady’s too smart!” My Daddy and Elvis became close friends in Germany whilst in the Army. I was only able to attend one show, but my parents attended several. It was a fun night for me as we went backstage before the show and even the band and backup singers were wonderful. Elvis was nervous and I asked him why. He said, “I’m afraid they ain’t gonna like me.” He told me he was nervous before every show. I told him that everyone loved him. He kissed me on the cheek when I told him that, but I meant it. I was devastated when he died. My parents attended his funeral but wouldn’t allow me to go with them. Elvis may be gone, but he’ll NEVER die. I’ll never forget the gorgeous man with the great sense of humor and the voice that will never be emulated.

I more than anything relate it to that Robert actually acknowledging that his big idol was living his later years. I have that uncanny feeling that Robert knew that Elvis would not be around too long. That he had served his purpose (if you wanna go religious). But I very much feel that Plant sensed that this ultimate legend of the birth of Rock and Roll was about to fade away...giving others the torch to carry on.

The biggest stars all fell under the spell of Elvis. Every time you hear a story by someone who actually met him, see how their eyes light up telling the story. Elvis had the abillity to make people feel as though they had known him for years, after spending five minutes with him. Plant is visibly moved during the Letterman interview, and who can blame him? He was one of the lucky ones who got to spend time with a phenomenon, who NEVER ever thought he was bigger or better than anyone else.

When Zeppelin met Elvis, they were literally the biggest band in the world, bigger than The Stones. At that time, they had finished up recording Physical Graffiti and had already revolutionized the rock touring industry, but even they were reduced to awestruck fans. The Beatles also pushed for and finally got to meet Elvis; when they finally met him, they were in awkward silence, they were in complete awe of him. Elvis was the one to break the silence by telling them "if you guys are just going to sit there and stare at me, I'm going to bed". And Robert Plant has a different view of "mega success" than most other people. After Led Zeppelin's O2 concert almost 10 years ago, they got offers for a tour, one of them would have made them the first billion dollar concert tour, and Plant was the one that walked away from it, much to the chagrin of Page, Jones, and Bonham's son Jason. Plant has always been true to his own inner integrity, and of course is very complimentary to his influences. And besides, we're talking about ELVIS. The only other person higher on the singer totem pole was Frank Sinatra.

I honestly didn't know Robert Plant was so charismatic and funny.

What a great video. Robert Plant is a true treasure. His wealth of knowledge in music is unbelievable. It's a shame they don't interview him more. Led Zeppelin Rules.

This is one of the coolest stories I’ve ever heard!!!

2 words I'd taught I'd never hear coming out of Elvis mouth I suppose it is a legend speaking about legends

When I was young, I just thought Elvis was just another singer......oh how I appreciate him now...

There are great musicians who have walked the earth, like Led Zeppelin, Buddy Holly, Mozart, Beethoven - and then there's Elvis. Elvis is from the galaxies.

Led Zeppelin with Elvis as the main act? This is what dreams are made of. WOW!

When I emigrated to Australia in 1964, a few years later I heard and bought the vinyl of this song called I'm Yours by Elvis Presley and got hooked on this man's singing. Now in my late sixties I'm still playing it and all the other great songs he sang. A once in a century singer and performer.

Elvis' influence on popular music is immutable. The man made such a mark on popular music that the reverberations of his influence on the genre are still felt today. He is still referenced, still talked about, still inspiring musicians. It is insane to think about his legacy, nearly 80 years after the iconic era of his music in the 1950s. Without Elvia, I don't know if many of the Delta Blues singers that he loved and venerated would be known today. Say what you want about his artistry, but the man brought attention to many artists who would have been forgotten and lost to time.

Shows what a class act Robert and the rest of Zeppelin are.

Robert Plant is awsome. How would that be to be in the stadium with the 2 Greatest acts on the Planet at the same time.

Refreshingly nice to see a major star be interviewed on TV and not talk about themselves.

That kind of makes sense, because America seems to have been dead since about the same time. What is the USA these days anyway other than a bunch of polarized angry people that hate each other?

A lesson from two great artist of how showing respect for each other can go a long way for many generations to come.

There's almost no big rock star who was not influenced by Elvis in some kind. Even Bruce Springsteen bought his first guitar after listening Elvis's songs. Although I'm barely amateur guitarist, I was also inspired by Elvis music that led me into world of rock'n roll, blues and even country music. This guy managed to connect best of all pre-rock genres in something so powerful and beautiful that bonds people no matter of race, ethnicity, musical preference etc. It's maybe unfortunate that I was born almost 40 years after Elvis made his first big music steps, but I'm fortunate to see so powerful legacy still going on and inspiring musicians around the world to be soulful and passionate about what they do.

None of these stories I have heard about Elvis surprise me. Everyone that I have ever talked to that met Elvis or new Elvis always said he was a stand up guy and nice to everyone from the time he came on the scene and to the time of his death they all said the same thing. Another story from Robert that backs it up.

Bill I had an elderly patient about ten years ago who told me he had met Elvis decades previously. Seems he was in the service with Elvis' cousin and the cousin took him to Graceland one weekend. He said Elvis cursed like a stevedore, drank a lot, was a great host and was always surrounded by a lot of people.

The thing about Elvis was he was such a tremendous blues singer, just utterly amazing. The way he sang was all "gut" singing, it's really hard and takes a hell of a lot of strength in the diaphragm and stomach muscles. It took me forever to even get close to getting the kind of vibrato he had and still, I'll never match it and he was singing on that level since he was a teenager.

This was great! I would have loved to have met both Elvis and Led Zeppelin. What an honor.

What a wonderful story....thanks! It's always good to see how entertainers get on....and especailly entertainers of such magnitude!

Elvis was an Anomaly, nothing like his way had ever been dreamed of! His passion was Gospel Music, His Record collection was nothing but old Quartet Gospel and lots of Old Black Gospel Quartets and Black Blues and Spiritual Performers. He had thousands of of Quartet Gospel Records, I guess every thing ever made. He had The Blackwood Brothers and The Stamps as His back up singers both Gospel! JD Sumner great Bass singer said after shows they would all get around a piano, Elvis would unwind by all singing Hymns together some time till dawn! I love seeing him in the videos, he will close his eyes and the spirit has got him! My Mom said the Day he died in Natchez Mississippi where they lived at that time, the radio announced it on every channel and the roads were littered with cars on the shoulders! She said people were all over every where you looked in huddles crying!

He apparently lived in Austin for a while. A friend of mine's daughter had a boyfriend who had a band playing at a little club there. After the gig, they were loading out their equipment, and there was some enigmatic older guy with really impressive long hair standing by the van. He kept asking really detailed questions about their sound equipment and their stage setup and so on, and they wondered why he was so interested. After they were through, and he left, the daughter finally realized: "I think that was Robert Plant"...I thought it was cool that someone from his background and of his stature was still interested in the day-to-day operation of a smaller local rock and roll band...

@@truesoulghost2777 What happened to Elvis is not unique. BUT, I think he was one of the first who was personally destroyed by the business part of music, of making money, being famous, being the KING. I blame that on Colonel Parker who would not listen to his pleas, all he cared about was that Elvis was on stage, didn't care what kind of condition he was in. Elvis was the cash cow for Parker, and his success supported his entire family, who grew up in the projects. Elvis really did pull them all out of poverty. An American Dream story on top of it all. Still, maybe he could have stayed around longer if he wasn't so locked into so many films, concert and recording concentrate. Hell, tons of money is STILL being made off Elvis. With the impersonators and the hologram they made of this performance, and it has already been paired with a "live" duet with Celine Dion and others, it is touring and making even more money. Like Whitney Houston's hologram tour, a hologram doesn't die. This is my favorite performance of his. Handsome, strong voice, isn't in that bling pantsuits-.
