Beautiful book portraying Elvis in the year
1969, returning to the stage and a live audience for the first time since
1961 (if you don't count the NBC-TV special from 1968). The book opens
with an introduction by Bruce Blanke about the impact Elvis had on Las
Vegas, and a few memories. Fun story to read. After this you see Elvis
taking around on the building grounds of the International Hotel, the
place he should conquer in less than 6 months. After this it's Showtime,
starting of with a few images of the decorated entrance of the Hilton (photo's
from 1972 or so), and Elvis entering the stage at the Las Vegas Hilton.
Elvis looks very good in his black karate-gi. The photo's really show a
lot of action. The book ends with photo's from the press-conference at the
Hilton, and some backstage snap-shots, and as an extra JAT concludes the
book with a picture of Elvis on stage giving a karate demonstration at a
Tom Jones show, September 1974. |
