A new one on me - 1973 possibly...Info Needed

This was posted on facebook. Never seen it before and was wondering if anyone had any info on it or if there was a better quality version out there. Many Thanks in advance.

What a fantastic pic!! Never seen that before, thanks for sharing!

I'd have guessed summer 1972, but have no real idea.

This is a beautiful, but cropped color photo. The original in a lesser quality and in B&W was first published on page 299 of Tunzi's "Elvis Sessions II".
It shows Elvis wth a gentleman named Gene DesselI and his main Vegas drug supplier Dr. Elias Ghanem, probably around 1972, 1972 in Las Vegas.

New for my eyes.

Thanks for sharing AlohaEagle

Fantastic shot, thanks!!

Thanks for all the input there folks, yeah wouldn't argue with summer '72....shame we didn't have the uncropped version but you never know, someone might have it yet. Thanks for the cleaned up version there artymorty, did you clean it up yourself or did you already have the photo in that condition? Well done if you cleaned it up yourself

Wonder if its a close up of Elvis with friends in Jungle Room 1973?

What a pic!

Very nice....thanks a lot

No, as mentioned above, the original in a lesser quality and in B&W was first published on page 299 of Tunzi's "Elvis Sessions II", and clearly not taken in the Jungle Room.

Did you know Photoshop also has 'Exposure" and "Vibrance" settings?

Elvis looks fanstastic here!
