DVD Reviews of Elvis' Memphis - A Magical History Tour
DVD Review: Memphis as Elvis Experienced It
Summary: 4 Stars
ELVIS' MEMPHIS is a very good 2-DVD set that shows a lot of places in and around Memphis that pertain to Elvis Presley. Mike Freeman is the congenial and knowledgeable host. To an extent this is also a general tour of Memphis, as with Sun Studios and Beale Street, but a lot of segments mainly pertain to Elvis, such as a ranch that he bought near Memphis, some churches he attended, restaurants he frequented, and so on.
Freeman goes inside several sites, but often he stands outside and talks about Elvis's connection to a place, and in some cases a building doesn't even exist any more, so we see where it used to be. When Freeman couldn't go inside somewhere, it would have helped if at least photos of the interior were shown. As, photos of Elvis inside his Audubon Drive home are famous, and showing some of these would have been great as Freeman stands outside the home and talks about it. Maybe there were legal or practical impediments - as, it's disappointing that the inside of Graceland is not shown, but I suppose that was impossible. Does a DVD tour of Graceland even exist? I haven't seen one.
However, there's LOTS of stuff on here, as the discs run over 3 hours total! Part of that is interesting and lengthy discussions Freeman has with several people, especially Elvis's friend George Klein, and also the owners of a couple of restaurants, a movie theater, and Lansky Brothers clothing store. Picture quality is decent and at a 1.33:1 ratio, and overall production quality is decent too. Also, I like the instrumental music played as Freeman travels from one site to another, but it's never so loud as to interfere with his talking. So, if you're interested in a tour of places in Memphis connected to Elvis, this 2-DVD set is just the thing for you.
