Elvis on Milton Berle Show in colour

G'day all.

A few years ago I posted a thread which I questioned who was the first rock'n'roller to appear on colour television and I mentioned Elvis Presley on the Milton Berle Show in 1956.

Anyhow as an update out of curiosity I did some research as The Milton Berle Show was in colour during 1956 and I found some photos of Elvis on the 5th June 1956 episode with a TK-41 in the background, so he definitely appeared in colour on that show performing "Hound Dog" with his (at the time) controversial gyrating hip movements. Anyhow here's the links to the photos and YouTube video:

Also I imagine his 3rd April 1956 appearance on the show on the USS Hancock ship must of been in colour too due to lack of haloing on the highlights:
