Announcement:
The Audionics label is proud to come up with a new, comprehensive 10 CD project,
dedicated to Elvis' legendary Las Vegas Summer '74 season. It is called 'The
King Strikes Back!' and for the first time ever, all rehearsal and live
soundboard recordings are presented in best possible sound quality and in one
box!
As you know, these recordings were released through the years by various bootleg
labels and by the official collectors FTD label, too. Nevertheless, many of
these original releases are hard to find nowadays, including several already
deleted Follow That Dream CDs! For some of these recordings, we have used audio
tapes (master cassettes) as a source, rather than existing CD releases. We have
spent dozens of hours in studio, to restore and enhance them. As usual, every
recording was treated individually and restored from scratch, using today's
advanced technology to achieve the best possible sound quality for your optimal
listening pleasure.
Each disc is placed in individually designed cardboard sleeve and there is a
16-page booklet, full of high-quality August/September 1974 photos (including
several rare ones) and reproductions of fan reviews, published in the
hard-to-find Rex Martin 'Elvis News Service Weekly' magazine, back in 1974.
These reviews are special because they were published shortly after the concerts
and those memories are immediate and fresh.
This is the first-ever Audionics comprehensive box. It's a special set which
deserves a place in any serious Elvis collection!
