Concert:

Another great closing show ; Elvis was alsways in a special mood for opening and closing shows and the enthusiasm and setlist bear this fact out. Yes , the cover photo is from the concert ! 

Again Elvis is in a hilarious mood. He fools around with the lyrics of Suspicious Minds while singing Bridge Over Troubled Water ! Amazingly the band goes with the joke, and Elvis carries it through till the end ! First version of Softly As I Leave You, totally different to later ones. Very good show with interesting setlist !!
Elvis took a ride on the back of Lamar Fike for both the dinner and closing shows , he also had a stuffed monkey on his back (as shown above). (Ciscoking)
