Elvis actualy hated all this red. It was ginger alden that did this decorating. Linda thompson said Elvis would avoid that area off the house because he did not like that color.

All of the red decor came from Linda Thompson herself. In fact, it led to their break up. Not his drug use or cheating, but because she posed for photos in a magazine in Graceland while it was this awful red.

Yes cbreeze. The inside was red when Elvis died. Priscilla had it redecorated to look much like it did when she lived there.

The pictures in this are really not that good of the red period. The blue and white is much prettier though. Most of the pictures of the red period are polariods. I'm sure many of us remember how dark they came out. I was at the viewing and the house was not ugly. It just looked lived in. There was carpet squares stuck on one door though & the outside grounds were not kept up like they are now. It's still a neat house and not as big as people might think.

When I visited Graceland in June 09 the stair carpet was white/cream and the dining room was blue. The jungle room was there when Priscilla was but the pool room was done with the material after she left. I saw her saying so on a dvd on You Tube

This is Graceland during the Red Era, designed by Linda Thompson. And when P. took over she redesigned it.

when are these photos from, and who took them?

is the house is it is today how it was at his death, or how it was when priscilla lived there?

i am pretty sure the jungle room for instance happened after she left.

The red would have been good if it was subtle, red and white all not that bad, its the red furniture, and gold that made it look so bad, if the carpet was white with red drapes it would have been better, I hated the gold, but the 70's was like that. the blue and white is pretty but again get rid of the gold.

I know Linda left Elvis after 5 years of living with him.

By the way, I just wonder if anyone has uploaded a vedio of Elvis death anniversary this Aug.16 of 2008. I hope this is a correct date.
