I believe there are two pics of Elvis not during the actual sessions but at the time of recording..
One is with people outside Graceland, the other is a picture in the basement Tv room...
Elvis is in denim clothing in both... if only i could find them.... undecided.gif

My pleasure Donna, it's one of those rare pics of Elvis inside Graceland in the 70's...

I corrected the colors a little and cleaned it.

The funny thing is that he doesn't look very bad at all in these pictures from February of 1976. Of course, I've read in "Elvis Aaron Presley: Revelations From The Memphis Mafia" that he didn't get really, really heavy until that Summer.

Yes Tony, he doesn't look or sounded bad at all... and i have to agree with you, it was not until the summer his health began to slide....

Thanks for sharing

July and August of 1976 are considered to be problematic for Elvis. His health was becoming an issue, his ability to concentrate, and even his voice appeared weak at times. STILL, with that being said, he still gave some relatively good shows. I saw him at two shows in June of 1976 and the shows were very good. He was very funny on stage, songs sung well, and he seemed to be enjoying himself.

He looks OK in this photo, but very serious. He doesn't look so good in a photo taken outside at the same time with some police officers.
Too bad they didn't do `official' photos at the time for the album cover. It would jhave made a nice change from the sweaty live shots.

That's the one i was looking for Kenny, thanks for directing!! notworthy.gif

About those summer '76 shows... he was breathing warm and cold that time.
For example the Hampton roads concerts where not that outstanding(spoken very kind), while the both shows in Largo are performed VERY well.
But you have to admire the man somewhere still... he tried and gave his best, even in lesser health.

Thanks for that link!

Man, Elvis looks funny in the picture with the police officers.

But I was flicking through "Elvis: What Happened?" today and on page 240 it states that the album was supposed to be called "Elvis at Home" (or that's at least the way I read it) but I assume that is the "From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee" album - I wonder if any more Elvis' albums had working titles ?
