We are always adding More!!!
On June 9, 1972, Elvis Presley was having his very first performance ever in New York City. The venue was The World's Most Famous Arena, Madison Square Garden. He Played 4 Shows at the Garden that weekend.
Ticket Prices were a whopping $10.
Elvis thought that was a lot for ordinary people so a Special Matinee show was added on June 10th 1972. Ticket prices for this show were only $5. This matinee show was said to be the best show of the 4 performances.
That performance on Saturday afternoon was recorded for a live album " ELVIS as recorded at Madison Square Garden.
A Funny thing happened... Someone upfront in the audience somehow got an 8mm Movie Camera into the show and recorded about 18 minutes of the concert. 8mm cameras back then had no capabilities of recording sound so all she got was the Concert but no sound.
Well.... The Movie she took was put together with the music from the album and We have an 8MM Movie of Elvis Presley Live in 1972 in New York City!!! There are a few spots ...
