a.o.Announcement: Elvis One presents THE CONCERT
RECORDINGS!
A collection of 4 cd's with soundboard live recordings recorded at the
International Hotel in Las Vegas from January and February 1971 plus a few bonus
tracks.
Included are all known recordings from January 26 (opening night), 27 (midnight
show), 28 (midnight show), 29 (dinner show) and February 23 (closing show).
These season's shows were quite short (due to hotel management) but Elvis is in
an enjoyable mood. There are many highlights including great live recordings
from "Sweet Caroline", "Make The World Go Away", "Only Believe", "Can't Help
Falling In Love" (dedicated to Hal Wallis), "The Impossible Dream", "How Great
Thou Art", "Something", and many others PLUS also some false starts, one-liners
and lyric changes.
"Also Sprach Zarathustra" is played for the very first time during this
engagement and the first rendition of this magic opening theme is also presented
on this set (opening night, January 26.) Bonus tracks are recordings from the
January 28 dinner show, the complete Elvis's Acceptance Speech of the Jaycees
Award from January 16, 1971, and a telephone conversation from April 1971.
All recordings for these 4 releases are remastered for optimum sound quality.
Each cd contains a 16-pages booklet with photos and recording information.
And ofcourse these are all limited editions of only 500 copies.
Not a typical fanclub CD. This title was released under
the ELVISONE label and were sold for commercial reasons by the EFE shop
"Shoppin' Around".
Formally it is an illegal publication, because the copyright
laws has been changed. (imo).
