i know for a fact that this show was filmed by THE COLONELS staff, I'm positive that E.P.E. have this , the local media were allowed to cover the show, with hand held 16mm.

Woow
all those pictures...this jumpsuit looked so good to elvis...he really looked great...as always:D

[jeanmary]

Until recently I thought this was a regular pair of pants and jacket - but having looked at many of Sandi Pichon's photos and talked to Sandi herself, I realised that the pants are an all-in-one...you can see that the waist is very high, no belt, and he has kind of straps over the shoulders....she said abit like dungarees.....and I have never seen a pic of him wearing this without the jacket...or even without that button being fastened.

I think that this two piece is definitely the way Elvis should have gone in 1976/77

[Tommy]

GREAT photo Matt (y), 76 & 77 would have look good in two piece suits.

[beau stewart]

I love this look i truly think this is the way are boy should have whant with his new look
it would have taken a lot of pressure off him to stop trying to look 30 when youer not and we all now how that feels lol

I agree, I really like this suit and it would have been a good model from what he could have worn had he lived.

The 2 piece suit would have been great for Elvis in 75-77 it would have hidden his weight better, you have to be in shape to look good in a jumpsuit.

[Wendy56]

Can somebody tell me why this suit is the "benefit suit"? Any story behind this one? Thank you. :) GREAT shots here. (y)

In 75 Elvis did a benefit concert in Mississippi I believe. Correct me if I am wrong.

Yes. Jackson, May 05. 1975. It was a benefit concert for the victims of a tornado happened on January 9, 1975 over the region.

Look at this: here you can see the jumpsuit-trousers under the jacket.

[The King's Queen]

He looked great in this suit. I think he should have used something like this, instead of the one piece jumpsuits, later on in his life. This is much more flattering IMO.

[Unchained Melody]

I have many great shots of Elvis in this great looking suit from Sandy Pichon's collection from the march/april 75 circa.(y)

To bad he didn't wear these 2 piece suits more often in 75 and later down the road they were great looking on him.

[easyrider]

Great photos(y)(y)
