Outstanding Matt! Elvis looked so awesome in that jumpsuit during that Philly show. He was so energetic and was perpetual motion the entire show! A beautiful jumpsuit. I never tire of seeing pictures from that amazing concert.

I remember having a poster on my wall from that show, I just don't understand how there isn't a good quality picture of that poster around.

Someone must have one out there!

I have tinkered with the pictured attached and done some repair work in trying to have a bigger version

I had that poster too. I wonder if it’s still somewhere in my mom’s house.




(btw - my 200th post. It only took 14 ½ years. I promise to slow down.)


If there's a choice, stereo over mono every time.

Thought I would make a wallpaper of the above re-coloured photo with some background. If you would like a particular show to have something similar... Let me know.

I'd love to have a wallpaper from the 2nd Asheville show (the one with the gypsy suit) not sure how many black and white photos there are out there though. That being said, I'd love wallpaper from any of the Asheville shows, or even all 3 in one! Thanks, keep up the good work!

I agree, and at the same time I would really enjoy a 3-CD release by FTD containing the three Asheville shows from 1975 :D

Had a go with 22nd June 1975, gave it a bit of detail. The concert ticket had to be made because I couldn't find one so made the whole thing from scratch. A faded background encompassing some detail off the jumpsuit to see if it added something. Obviously any feedback is welcome. Sometimes I tend to overdo things.

Anyway, hope you like it. I will look at doing the Gypsy jumpsuit.
