Attention New York Elvis fans (and lovers of leisure-suits everywhere): a larger then life photo of the King from his 1972 concert at Madison Square Garden has landed atop the Virgin Megastore in Times Square.
The photo is apart of a number of images taken of Presley by legendary photographer George Kalinsky that have not been published before.
Kalinsky came across the photos while looking for images for a publicity campaign called "Great Moments in New York."
The photos will be displayed at Graceland starting Memorial Day weekend as part of "Elvis Jumpsuits: All Access," a fashion exhibit featuring more than 50 of Elvis' famous stage wear jumpsuits, according to the Associated Press.
Leisure-suit-apalooza. Uh-huh-huh

They will never be another entertainer like him.I,m a big fan.
Isn'tthis the same photo that is at the entrance of MSG's wall of fame?
Only Elvis could get members of the Beatles to come see his show at MSG. Nuff Said.
