Amazing NEW footage of Elvis in a Turban!!!

Wow nice find, Sean!

I had seen a couple of photos from this event, but never the footage....

Thanks a lot for this.

Just done a bit of research into who Barry Elwood is:

Intersting he teaches a Kenpo system, like Ed Parker did. Some more Elvis photos from this meeting are on his site.

sorry guy's could'nt help but have a little bit of a laugh at E in his little turban found it quite comical only the King could get away with it

Yeah, believe it or not, Elvis was wearing this not for a joke.

Taken in Sept. '72, Elvis was into psychic healing and Elvis being Elvis, never did things by half measures, it was only natural for him to wear a turban.

Some other familar faces in this clip.

Sonny West
Ed Parker
Dave Hebler (Could be one of the first times they met)
One of the Stanley boys, think its Rick.

Photos have existed of Elvis in a turban but no footage, until now.

Story goes that one of the kids tried to grab the stone in the turban which really annoyed Elvis.

Amazing footage but i cant help feeling abit sad for Elvis in this clip, it was obviously a time in his life where he wasnt right as the Aloha interviews around that time show.
