Today, on 28 May in Elvis History

Elvis and Gene Smith flew home to Memphis.

Elvis bought his first grand piano for Graceland for $795 from Jack Marshall in Memphis.

Elvis spent the weekend in Las Vegas.

Like the days before Elvis went into the studio again, but without the Imperials his spirit to record was gone. Only 2 songs were completed between 7:00 and 10:00 p.m.

During this period at home, Elvis slept most of the day. He took a swim in the late afternoon before he went horseback riding on the grounds. He ended up down at the gates, where he talked with fans. In the evening he continued to screen movies at the Memphian.

Elvis performed at the James, W. Hilton Coliseum, University of Iowa, Ames, Iowa.
