Michele Carey was El's love interest and Frank's eldest played no part in the film.

Damn it. :lol:


...and I wouldn't have said the Sinatras 'had an important place' in Elvis' career.

Not hugely, but the Welcome Back show was quite important.

The Sinatra family and Elvis connections fascinate me, the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra is one most Elvis fans forget.

That is a very indirect connection. I don't think "old blue eyes" had any influence there, in fact in 1956 it would probably have been "let the boy appear on the show and let him fall flat on his face".

I think the word is tenuous , but it’s a connection none the less.

Yep, but it says "The Sinatras had an important place in Presley's career", but I don't think young Nancy had any impact on his career. Where's that red top photo from?

The photo with the red top is from Live a Little Love a Little & he's seen with Michele Carey.

Oh yeah. I couldn't properly see her face, but El's hair isn't right for Speedway.

And neither is his co-star.

You already posted this screengrab one minute ago in another thread.

We all know you're such a smart guy. You don't need to do that.

Yes, that’s correct, but it’s part of a different conversation and will get lost over time.
Posting it in this ‘error’ section means it’s easier to find if required at a later date.
Stop being a troll. ;)
