    GI Blues Question

    I've heard that there is scene where Elvis has a fat hand do to a karate accident or something. But I have never seen it. Anyone know what scene this is suppose to be?

    You see it in the scene when Elvis sings "Tonight is so right for love" in fact if you look at the pic of the Gi blues album you will see his hand.
    (One of the shows I saw in Vegas 74 Elvis talked about it and said to look at the back cover)

    I watched that scene. And I spotted that fat hand. Doesn't look like it would have been fun.

    Yes it's on the back of the album.....there are two picks of him with his gutiar...and it's the pic on the left...you can see how swollen his right hand is compared to the pic on the right.

    Never seen the scene either... E's voice and sweet face while singing Tonight's... don't let me see any other weird detail...
    Let the stars fade and fall, and I won't care at all, as long as I have you.

    It's hard to notice anything else while watching Elvis.

    It must have been painful to pretend to strum the guitar.

    Can't you see his swollen hand when he's singing Doin' The Best I Can?"

    found a photo in the gallery. the hand is really fat! it really does look painful,
    i guess that's what they mean when they say the show must go on. poor baby
    All I wanted was a white knight with a good heart, soft touch, fast horse
    Ride me off into the sunset Baby, I'm forever yours
