The Elvis Presley Story, produced and directed by Ron Jacobs, was first distributed by Watermark in 1971 as a 2-hour program. Following Presley's death in 1977, the original was updated and an additional hour was added making the story a total of 3 hours. The Elvis Presley Story was written by Elvis biographer Jerry Hopkins and narrated by long-time Los Angeles media personality Wink Martindale. This shows are packed full of interviews and music. The show being done in 1971 except the last added hour, the music recordings you can tell are from some of the original recordings. Quiet entertaining.

      I just listen to this and it is great docu, Since it was done in 1971, the interviews are with a lot of people Elvis went to school with, knew him before he got famous, ect. A lot of the people interviewed are not even living today, and the songs are from recordings in the era. No dubs on this.
