Madison Square Garden,New-York. June 9th 1972.The New York Sunday Times wrote "He used The Stage,he worked the people...,he turned,he moved,and when a girl threw a handkerchief on stage,he wiped his forehead with it and threw it back,a gift of sweat from an earthly god."

Elvis was wearing for the first time for this opening show at MSG a jumpsuit that became widely known as the "Adonis jumpsuit ".He used the same suit at the closing show in New-York and in other cities throughout the June 1972 tour.

This concert was partly filmed with sound by a local New-York T.V. Station and some excerpts were used in different video releases (re. Memories by George Klein) or on some specials related to Elvis on T.V.,all the footage was always used without the real sound.However "Dateline NBC" used a short clip of "Polk Salad Annie" about a year ago and that one came on the screen with his real sound (quite good if I may add!!!),it's not really known for how long they have filmed but all the footages seen so far are from the first four songs.
