Great Pic!
Steve! Those pics on your website from Hawaii, are they all you have? Or do you have others.
I have 8 pics that are not on your website
Sincerely
Brian

Brian, that's all I have 
But i know there are hundreds more that were taken. Some collectors have written to me saying I can have one to use from their respective collections, but I'd rather they kept them to ensure their maximum value is retained prior to being published.
Brian, if they are not unpublished I'd love to have them to include for everyone. Send them along, I'll put them into order of the days events.
Wasn't that day a unique one ? The great thing about compiling that info is that it took me a day to do, it was almost like re-living that day in real time.
I know you appreciate that aspect of doing something like that.

The Doc has written a couple of times about how brilliant these performances were from EP.

Indeed, the 1961 Hawaiian Benefit Show is one of Elvis' greatest moments on stage. He had it all -- a HOT band, a career filled with #1 hits right up to the current day, a voice that could do no wrong and a future that seemed limitless.
