Elvis Presley made television and entertainment history with his "Elvis, Aloha from Hawaii" concert television special. The performance took place on January 14, 1973. The concert was beamed live via satellite to over 10 countries. It was seen on delay in approximately 30 European countries shortly after.
On April 4th, an edited version of the concert, expanded with songs videotaped just after the live event, was presented in the U.S. on NBC, attracting 51% of the television viewing audience. In all, it was seen by over one billion people worldwide.
Never before had one performer held the world's attention in such a way. "Aloha from Hawaii" presents Elvis Presley at the pinnacle of his superstardom, giving one of the most outstanding concert performances of his career.
