LEECH 28.09.74 COLLEGE PARK

#1975938

Post by Matt Ashton »

One of those simple jumpsuits that got worn 23 times between 1974 & 1976. The simplicity of this Jumpsuit is it's star quality. One of quite a few Elvis would wear from 1974 and then 1976 & 1977, the most famous of the jumpsuits from 1974 being the Mexican sundial worn 39 Times. The Arabian 1974 Jumpsuit was worn more in 1977 than any other year 11 times (total 21).

I think I might do some investigating to see which year got the most Jumpsuit revivals... 74 & 75 I am sure will be the winners

What does Roanoke have to do with this picture?

Help a feller out here.

Rob makes a good point...., the tape on Elvis' right hand indicates that this is likely from the Sept/Oct 1974 tour. Still, I too, like this jumpsuit. It is simple and yet colorful. Elvis looked good in this suit. Thanks for the picture...,

The photo here is labeled as "LEACH 280974 COLLEGE PARK (21)" which is the correct attribution.

The second show in College Park, MD on 9-28-1974 was quite an event.

Well, that's an overly-detailed review of the set on 9-27-1974, from the audience tape that surfaced a few years back.

The next night came out on a soundboard tape decades ago, and was quite an audio experience.

Here's a review:

Leave him alone or he'll go back to the dressing room and "play with his foot."

What the hell?
