It would have been funny if Elvis had shown up with JD Sumner and The Stamps and managed to get JD a line in the song. I can picture Elvis having JD do the divebomb routine for everyone. "look everybody he is the lowest Bass singer in the world. You need a guy like this in your band Bruce". Then you watch footage and you see Charlie Hodge and Joe Esposito following Elvis around while all of the other stars are wondering wtf is going on.

I wonder if Elvis would have covered Cyndi Lauper's "She Bop"

If he was still managed by parker & being his little puppet, not a hope in hell!
parker would have told elvis like he always had that you dont make any public statements about politics or war or any issues of the world!
nor would he have been allowed to mingle & perform at LIVE AID , parker would have demanded the usual $1000.000 for "his boy" and no one got paid !
They may have bought a run down yacht, painted one side to be photographed & donated that, telling michael Jackson he could sell it to buy rice or something. l0l

" Never was so Influential a Man so poorly prepared for his fate - nor so ineptly schooled for its Consequences"
"There was a reason they nicknamed him the King of Rock + Roll, !!!
THIS is the way ELVIS should be remembered! This is true greatness in the churchillian sense:
swaggering, daring, Proud yet humble, beaten yet never truly down,
MAGNIFICENT when victorious and always unforgettable! "

I would hope he would have gotten rid of Parker by 1985 had he survived August 16, 1977.

Nah, this was started at the Grammy's. The word was 'passed around' that they were going to record after the show, and there's no way Elvis would have been in attendance to be asked.
