The 1968 television special that became the comeback of the King would not have had that kind of impact had it not been for Steve Binder. Steve was the man behind the scenes for the '68 Comeback Show and talks candidly about his role in making a show that Elvis would be proud of, rather than the version that Colonel Tom and the networks envisaged. Steve's memories of his time with Elvis are priceless, including the catalyst for the unplugged Elvis jam session and where Baz Luhrmann took license in his blockbuster film.
