Per disposizione del Dr. Nick, il tour di 4 settimane deve essere ridotto a 2. Essendo sabato, Elvis fa i due concerti previsti per questa sera, mentre l’usuale show di apertura riservato agli invitati, viene rinviato al giorno dopo (normalmente lo show su invito avviene di venerdì, ma questa volta è stato spostato al sabato per non entrare in conflitto con il rientro di Frank Sinatra al Ceasar Palace).
Duke Bardwell sostituisce Emory Gordy al basso e per la prima volta, con Elvis ci sono anche i Voice.

Elvis viene presentato a Muhammad Alì, che si trova a Las Vegas per difendere il suo titolo di campione contro Joe Bruner. Muhammad Alì indossa un accappatoio decorato dalla frase “The People’s Champion”. Mohammad Ali lo ricorda così “Stavo male per lui perché non riusciva a godersi la vita come avrebbe dovuto. Stava sempre rinchiuso. Gli dicevo di uscire e incontrare gente. Viene il momento che Alì regala ad Elvis i suoi guantoni da boxes, con la scritta “Sei il più grande” sul guantone sinistro e su quello destro “A Elvis, l’uomo più importante per me, da Muhammad Alì”

Questo è il primo show di Elvis a Memphis, dal lontano 1961 e tutti i quattro show programmati, hanno avuto immediatamente il tutto venduto. Il Colonnello è costretto ad organizzare un altro show, che ritiene sia l’ideale per farne un album live e l’occasione perfetta, per evitare di costringere Elvis a tornare in studio
Il singolo “I Got A Thing About You Baby/Take Good Care Of Her” entra nella classifica U.K. guadagnandosi il 40° posto

Tornato a Memphis Elvis fa una dimostrazione di karate per 90 minuti con Ed Parker al Tennessee Karate Institute.
Questa è una nuova scuola che Elvis ha creato e che sarà gestita da Red West e Bobbi Wren, un cugino di Elvis.
Come principale istruttore viene assunto il campione di karate Bill “Superfoot” Wallance che già ha diretto una scuola di karate per conto di Kang Rhee.
Questo segna l’inizio del periodo del suo massimo coinvolgimento con il karate.
Infatti ha anche in mente di fare un film documentario su questa disciplina che può avere effetti positivi sia da un punto di vista fisico che psicologico.
Quest’idea del film va e viene e si alterna immaginandolo come un film alla Bruce Lee in cui lui ha l’opportunità di tornare a recitare e altre volte lo immagina solo come documentario con i filmati delle dimostrazioni di Ed Parker nel suo tour in California e ipotizzando di mandare un team di karate a gareggiare in Europa.
Alla fine la scelta cade sul documentario, per il quale Elvis stesso inizia a stendere una bozza di quella che sarà la narrazione su filmati in cui passano principalmente le esibizioni di Ed Parker e alcune sue fatte qui a Memphis. Elvis sceglie anche il titolo provvisorio che sarà “Il nuovo Gladiatore”
05-07-1974
Elvis è a Memphis, dove passerà tutto il mese di luglio a casa, facendo solo qualche puntata a Palm Springs e Las Vegas, sempre decise all’ultimo minuto
Per il resto trascorre le giornate facendo shopping dai Lansky, andando al cinema e presenziando alla partita di apertura di World Football League’s Memphis Southme (in seguito soprannominati Grizzlies).
In questo periodo Linda Thompson cambia completamente l’arredamento interno di Graceland. In totale Linda ha speso $ 62.896,66, di cui $51.504.66 alla Eangle’s Interiors, che verranno pagati a fine anno e $ 11.386 alla Forntner Forniture Company,
La Donald Forniture Company invece ha fornito tutti gli accessori d’arredamento polinesiani per la stanza che oggi è chiamata Jungle Room, nonché i candelabri e lampadari e i vetri decorativi con i pavoni e le rose che oggi si vedono nell’entrata e nella sala da pranzo di Graceland.
Durante i lavori, Elvis si trasferisce all’Howard Johnson Hotel, in fondo alla strada.

Elvis aderisce ad una richiesta di donazione per aiutare Ivory Joe Hunter, meglio conosciuto come l’autore di “Since I Met You Baby (e di tante altre canzoni interpretate da Elvis, tra cui “My Whish Come True”).
Infatti Hunter è in ospedale, malato di cancro.
Elvis spedisce un assegno di $ 1.000 all’ Ivory Joe Hunter Fund di Memphis, con una biglietto in cui dice “Mi dispiace molto sapere che Ivory è ammalato. Da lungo tempo sono un grande ammiratore di Ivory Joe e del suo talento. Vi prego dire a Ivory Joe che gli auguro di recuperare rapidamente. Joe è un grande talento ed ha ispirato molti artisti che sono arrivati al successo. Mi ferisce profondamente sentire lo stato delle sue condizioni di salute. Mi auguro di cuore che questo assegno possa essere un po' di aiuto. Grazie per tenermi informato su Joe. Sinceramente Elvis Presley”

In questo periodo, girano voci che, Elvis sia mancato a 2 apparizioni, della settimana precedente, per problemi di droga. Elvis è furioso e, durante la sua performance sul palco, sventola un certificato emesso dalla International Narcotics Enforcement Officers Association, lo stesso che aveva già presentato nel backstage, prima di questo show

Drug Story
Durante questo show, Elvis spiega il risultato di una biopsia al fegato, alla quale si è recentemente sottoposto e poco dopo fa un imbarazzante monologo su vari argomenti personali, tra cui il suo rapporto con Priscilla (che era tra il pubblico insieme alla figlia Lisa Marie) quello che dicono i giornali e le voci sulle “droghe”
Di questo concerto ho realizzato un video, interamente sottotitolato.
Ecco il link del post accompagnato da una bella recensione di Valeria Giannotta

Visto che era ancora a Memphis, con l’aiuto di Linda, Elvis fa un programma dettagliato per il suo nuovo film sul karate, che si chiamerà: The New Gladiators. Elvis vuole fare questo film per promuovere la sua filosofia che il karate è un metodo per aiutare se stessi.

Sia i media che i fans sono perplessi sulle sue performance in questo tour. Tony Brown, però, è testimone di quella volta in cui, uscendo dalla sua limousine, Elvis cade sulle ginocchia e porta avanti tutto lo show come fosse sonnambulo.

15-10-1974
Elvis va a Las Vegas con Sheila Ryan, per farsi curare dal Dr. Elias Ghahem. Questo medico si era già occupato di Elvis, nel 1972 durante il periodo dei concerti a Las Vegas
16-10-1974
Il Dr. Grahem prescrive ad Elvis degli accertamenti clinici per capire da cosa sono causati i suoi problemi intestinali, da cui si riscontra un’ulcera non curata, con problemi infiammatori di edema alla mucosa gastro-intestinale.
Elvis rimane in un’ala della casa del Dr. Grahem, sottoponendosi ad una profonda “cura del sonno” che consiste in un’ alimentazione liquida e sedativi, raccomandata dallo stesso dottore.
21-10-1974
Il Dr Grahem ordina una serie di analisi per determinare la causa dei problemi intestinali di Elvis. Gli esami stabiliscono l’esistenza di un’ulcera emorragica. Elvis rimane ricoverato in un’ala speciale della clinica del Dr. Grahem, riservata alle celebrità, per seguire una nuova “dieta del sonno” che consiste in nutrimento con liquidi e riposto assoluto, con il supporto di sedativi.
04-11-1974
Jerry viene nominato come produttore esecutivo del film sul karate. E’ molto probabile che, sia questa la settimana in cui Elvis compra una casa per Jerry Schilling, mentre Jerry si trovava a Las Vegas. Elvis spiega a Jerry il motivo: “Jerry, sai perché ti ho comprato questa casa? So che farò arrabbiare tutti gli altri ragazzi per questo, ma tua madre morì quanto tu avevi solo un anno e tu non ha mai avuto una casa. Bene, voglio essere io quello che te ne regala una”

23-12-1974
Elvis torna a Memphis con Linda e Lisa Marie da Palm Springs, via Amarillo, TX
24-12-1974
Sembra che Elvis abbia perso tutto l’interesse a fare il film sul karate e il progetto viene abbandonato. Tutto viene chiuso talmente velocemente che nessuno viene pagato per il lavoro delle ultime due settimane. La spiegazione ufficiale è che Elvis ha problemi di salute.

29-12-1974
Elvis riceve una telefonata dal Colonnello. Questa telefonata ha lo scopo di avere notizie sui problemi di salute di Elvis, visto che, da vari componenti dell’entourage, il colonnello è venuto a conoscenza di vari comportamenti errati e di problemi di salute di Elvis, degli ultimi mesi. Dopo la telefonata con Elvis, Parker ha la conferma che quello che è stato riferito è vero e rende evidente che Elvis non sarà in grado di adempiere all’ingaggio all’Hilton di Las Vegas del prossimo gennaio
30-12-1974
Parker informa l’Hilton di Las Vegas che Elvis non sarà in grado di esibirsi a gennaio. Elvis manda un telegramma al Colonnello con queste parole “Caro Colonnello, apprezzo che lei stia firmando qualsiasi documento che mi riguarda, mentre io cerco di ristabilirmi. Auguro il meglio per tutti i ragazzi e per me. Felice anno nuovo, Elvis”
