Elvis Presley

The Ed Sullivan Shows [DVD]

(Image Entertainment) Rated: N/A

US release date: 21 November 2006

UK release date: 27 November 2006

by John Bergstrom

This set of all three complete Sullivan telecasts on which Presley appeared captures Elvis's point of entry into mainstream American consciousness. And, in context, it's easy to see just why he made such a splash.
