Review:
Experience Elvis being surprised with presents by fans in 1968 for
Father's Day, how he visits the USS Arizona
War Memorial to whose construction he has contributed with his benefit
concert in 1961 - an Elvis who is just
coming home from the shooting of the 68 TV Special and still wearing
the suit from the Gospel sequence...
Accompany Elvis backstage during his Comeback engagement in 1969 in Las
Vegas, be present during the key
commissioning of the first American Stutz, experience more about the
meeting between Muhammad Ali and Elvis
and how Muhammad Ali found himself standing in the ring in a Elvis
jumpsuit design. Behind The Image 2 is showing
for the first time the photos which break all speculations off, whether
Elvis was present at the Ali-Frazier fight.
See Elvis's astonished face when he suddenly meets a double of himself,
the sensational photos of the private
Elvis who leaves the Memphian Theater as a true action hero; with two
pair of Bruce Lee style Nunchakus in each
back pocket, and a gun tucked into the front of his pants. Experience
Elvis, the avid martial arts enthusiast in the karate studio together
with
Ed Parker and later when he poses in the karate studio in a jumpsuit
for common fan photos.
The rumor that the late 70's Elvis was only tired and dull is totally
disproved by this book in reports and pictures:
on one side there is an Elvis totally inflamed with rage, who leaves
his hotel because the air condition has given
up the ghost and runs into the next hotel directly across the street to
escape the summer heat.
Imagine Elvis a few days before his death on his Harley with a flower
arrangement on his carrier - without the company of his
bodyguards - on his way to Forrest Hill Cemetery where he lays down a
bouquet at his mother's grave. Behind The Image 2
does not only give you the story to this surely unique moment, but
provides also the according pictures. Also included are
several untold stories about the last few days of Elvis' life.
Experience for example how Elvis became "Mr. Lipton" and how he stops
at Taco Bell in 1970 on his way to work on his
That's The Way It Is documentary, and why he leaves by saying "Awwww
F***".
Behind The Image 2 starts in 1956 and takes you through to August of
1977.
