Elvis termina questo ingaggio che, ancora una volta, è stato saturato dalle prenotazioni, battendo tutti i records di presenza di pubblico al Sahara Hotel.
Questo ingaggio gli frutta $ 142.062,50 al netto di spese e commissioni

I lavori di ristrutturazione nella casa di Monovale sono terminati e, in contemporanea viene messa in vendita quella di Hillcrest al prezzo di $ 550.000

07-08-1971
Poiché tutto il gruppo arriva direttamente dalla performance di Tahoe, le prove si tengono solo per tre giorni nella sala dell’Hilton, a cominciare da oggi.
In questo ingaggio, il comico è Bob Melvin.

August Opening

Il secondo “Elvis Summer Festival” annuale apre con una misera recensione da parte dell’Hollywood Reporter che definisce lo spettacolo “sciatto, provato frettolosamente, banale, scarsamente amplificato, occasionalmente monotono, spesso stupido e creato a casaccio…… Elvis appare giù di tono, stanco ed evidentemente appesantito”. Secondo quanto dice il giornale “il pubblico non avrebbe potuto essere meno attento…………. Però la gente assolutamente lo ama, lo riverisce ed esaudisce ogni suo desiderio”

Nonostante si senta meglio, Elvis continua ad avere problemi alla gola, così decide di chiamare lo specialista otorinolaringoiatra, Dr. Sydney Boyer che per il resto del tour a Las Vegas rimarrà il suo medico di fiducia.
Sotto le cure del Dr. Boyer, Elvis è in grado di portare a termine il suo ingaggio, nonostante, saltuariamente, la gola gli faccia ancora male.

Il Colonnello scrive al Management III per lamentare un management lassista ed “alcune esperienze negative” successe nell’ultimo tour. Dopo aver espresso una dose di scetticismo sulla prosecuzione dell’associazione (gli effetti di questa operazione potranno essere meglio valutati nel 1972), di fatto cede e concede alla società creata per le promozioni di supportare un’azione per un milione di dollari, per un altro tour con 12 date, che inizierà a novembre.

Nella nuova casa di Monovale vengono portati effetti personali di Elvis e mobili, ma quando è a Los Angeles, lui continua a rimanere nella casa di Hillcrest, per il resto del mese.

Alla fine del tour, Elvis e il Colonnello hanno realizzato $ 351.000 in 4 settimane.
Numerosi articoli nei giornali riferiscono che Elvis è malato e che durante tutto il periodo l’ingaggio, viene seguito dai medici ogni giorno e in un suo articolo del 9 settembre, Rhona Barret, fa capire che l’occasionale comportamento poco ortodosso di Elvis, sia da attribuire al suo coinvolgimento con il Self-Realization Fellowship e con Sri Maya Data

Il Los Angeles Citizen News riporta un articolo dal titolo “ELVIS PRESLEY SCARICA PARKER?” in relazione alle voci sempre più insistenti, secondo cui Parker sta cercando di vendere il suo contratto.
Contemporaneamente, la rivista musicale inglese New Musical Express riporta un articolo, secondo cui Parker sarebbe in contatto con Gordon Mills, il brillante manager di Tom Jones e tra i due ci sarebbe una fitta corrispondenza, argomento che viene smentito sia da Parker che dal suo assistente Tom Diskin, usando un linguaggio che farebbe invece pensare tutto il contrario e che queste supposizioni siano vere.
In questo periodo la stampa rivela che Elvis e Priscilla sono diventati come due estranei.

Già con questo concerto, gli Imperials non sono più con Elvis. Si suppone possa essere perché hanno già degli impegni o perché il Colonnello non ha intenzione di pagarli di più, ma gli Imperials, presto capiscono che saranno sostituiti definitivamente dagli Stamps e J.D Sumner.
Anche il numero di apertura, non viene più fatto dal comico Jackie Kahane.
Questa è la prima volta in cui Elvis chiude lo show con le braccia alzate e il mantello aperto, così come ama farlo alla fine delle canzoni How Great Thou Art, The Impossible Dream e Bridge Over Troubled Water.

La ragazza nella foto, ha un gravissimo handicap e viene spinta verso la sua postazione tra il pubblico, nella sua sedia a rotelle. Appare evidente che non c’è posto. Sua sorella (quella a sinistra) litiga con un incaricato. A quel punto il Colonnello arriva e porta le due ragazze nel backstage, per incontrare Elvis. La ragazza disabile è talmente commossa da piangere continuamente durante tutto il breve incontro. Le sorelle vengono fatte sedere di fronte al palco, perché possano vedere bene lo show.
