The finest hour for me has to be the hour that got me hooked and that I still watch umpteen times a year "Aloha from Hawaii". I know its been mentioned here before but I only just found this thread.
I think the whole of Elvis was like a unit at last working as one:
"Hair you gonna behave tonight?" - "Yessir!"
"Weight, you gonna be JUST right?" - "Yessir!"
Heck even his pores behaved that night and if he was gonna sweat the trickles were going to look like tears at just the right time and place.
If Elvis' life was a school day this was afternoon break, a rip roaring, laughter filled run around the playground before going back to class to wait for the final bell. And instead of crisp bags left blowing around the netball court there was a belt and a cape left to waft about on the hysterical breeze of adulation.
It makes me come over all poetical!

An American Trilogy: song, soul, person,
Love me his only command.
Oh see, see this rider twist the throttle,
Harrying suspicious minds off the road.
A blue suede shoe freed to tread my way.

Hunk of love or hound dog?
A lonesome cry tells us which -
What now my love? the world's fevered reply.
All too soon its over, a short welcome to my world
I'll remember you for this, for always,
I can't stop loving you.
