Yesterday the engineer didn't record "Also Sprach Zarathustra", today he waits to start the equipment until Elvis is in the midst of "See See Rider". 

As usual Elvis toys around with the word "well" before he starts the song with the line "Well, I said I got a woman". Just like yesterday he claims not to approve JD Sumner's contribution and gives him a chance to impress the audience with even deeper notes. Then he returns to the Ray Charles song, gives his instrument back to Charlie and welcomes the crowd. He announces to sing some old and some new songs as well as to walk around on stage and drink some water.

The next song is "Love Me", which is used to give away a scarf or another.

Elvis obviously likes "Trying To Get To You" very much, because he puts in a lot of effort and belts out the chorus in impressive style.

In contrast to the previous oldie "All Shook Up" is presented in a more business-like fashion.

This is the performance everybody is looking forward to, at least the females. Elvis doesn't simply sing the song, but he kisses as many ladies as possible. At times he's so busy, that he doesn't even get to sing. 

Still distracted by the ladies, Elvis stumbles upon the timing and forgets parts of the lyrics. It's an entertaining affair.

Leaving out "Johnny B. Goode" the king moves straight to "Hound Dog". Even though the single became the best selling 45 of the whole decade, the singer doesn't give a damn and just repeates the same for lines over and over again without investing too much energy. Of course the audience couldn't care less.

While "Hound Dog" was some kind of duty, "Fever" is presented pep and fun. Elvis obviously enjoys to make the ladies scream by simply moving his legs and he imitates their "Elviiiiiiiiiiis" scream after having sung the line "I light up when you call my name".

Of course the audience expects some of the famous Presley moves. The king delivers and performs Tony Joe White's swamp rock "Polk Salad Annie". It's not as wild as back in 1970/71, but especially during the finale the singer works up some sweat. Afterwards he's noticably out of breath and flirts a bit with the ladies.  

As a teenager Elvis didn't want to be a solo performer, but a member in a gospel group. Today he fulfills his dream, lets JD Sumner present the lead vocals and joins The Stamps during the chorus. It's not hard to see, that he enjoys this part of the show much more than having to sing "All Shook Up" or "Hound Dog".

Surprisingly the king includes the power ballad "You Gave Me A Mountain", which was combed out of his program after the "Elvis Summer Festival 1973" in Vegas. But it was obviously rehearsed since the Al Tronti Orchestra hasn't any trouble to join in. It's a good rendition and the king doesn't fail to impress with some emotionally belted out lines.

In contrast to the previous days' dinner show "Suspicious Minds" works just fine. Elvis moves a bit to the music and gets the ladies off their seats.

Now Elvis takes a few minutes to introduce the band. He also welcomes The Jackson Five, who will take over the entertainment tomorrow. As we know today, the star of the group, Michael, would later marry Lisa Marie Presley.

The king continues with a lively rendition of "I Can't Stop Loving You".

While Elvis starts to announce his latest single "Help Me" (well, in fact it's the b-side of his forthcoming 45 "If You Talk In Your Sleep"), some fans start to yell out song requests. One wants to hear "Sweet Caroline", another asks for "Old Shep". Finally the king settles for "Help Me Make It Through The Night", a country ballad from his album "Elvis Now". As usual the band is on their toes and starts to play the tune. Even though it might not have been planned for tonight, Joe Guercio obviously has rehearsed the song with the Al Tronti Orchestra. It takes them a short while, but soon they join in with a worked-out arrangement. Great stuff.

Once again Elvis strays from yesterdays' setlist and substitutes "An American Trilogy" with "Bridge Over Troubled Water". It's a fine rendition, especially the finale is nothing but impressive.

Country pop obviously fits the king just as well as big-voiced ballads. Afterwards he introduces Lisa Marie, who's in the audience tonight.

Elvis continues with another uptempo tune. He's having fun with the old r&b tune and even offers a little reprise.

Having another concert on his agenda, the king bows out with "Can't Help Falling In Love". He's busy with the ladies at the edge of the stage, who desperately try to get his attention or even the final scarf. The band segues into the "Closing Riff", the curtain comes down and the king is gone.
