The Secret World Of Elvis III

Elvis taking lessons in French, Paris, 1959.
The final prescription from Dr. Nick, Aug. 1977.
Elvis in Paris, 1959 with what looks like Bill Wyman in drag.
I'd hate to have been Elvis when he woke up the next morning.
Looking For Elvis' wallet?
Copping a feel....
Although nothing here is as musically astounding as the version of Stranger In My Own Hometown I posted last week, I thought a few of these goofy live and rehearsal x and NC-17 private moments with Elvis might provide a cheap laugh or two for some of you folks out there.
What we have here are Got My Mojo Workin' (with a nice solo from James Burton), I Wash My Hands In Muddy Water, It's Midnight, Polk Salad Annie, Promised Land, US Male, You Gave Me A Molehill (aka You Gave Me A Mountain) and perhaps the oddest of all-- Elvis' Soliloquy On Drugs. The last one there sounds like a case of 'roid rage. Will we ever understand what went through Elvis' mind?

  1. I've said it before and I'll say it again, damn that Bill Wyman's got some big breasts.

  5. 150 ludes from Dr. Nick. That would have been ample for me let alone the percs and everything else.

  6. That prescription form looks wrong. The handwriting is as neat as in a print ad.

  7. "That prescription form looks wrong. The handwriting is as neat as in a print ad."

    Only one way to find out, take down to Duane Reade and see if they fill it!
