Houston - Fort Worth - Baton Rouge 1974 - Elvis Presley FTD CD

4 panel digipak CD

Concert:

This time FTD takes us back on tour in 1974. And finally we get an official outing of the Houston Astrodome show from the evening of March 3.
It's a unique concert because due to space problems on the stage Elvis had to play without his regular orchestra.
This means we don't hear the "2001 Theme" and many songs sound quite different without the usual orchestra backing. Very good!

The shows from Fort Worth and Baton Rouge are real treasures. They were never released in any form before.

Again FTD lives up to its name. They are collectors items in the truest sense.
I don't have to write about the quality of the concerts. You can't do anything wrong when you go on tour with Elvis in March or June this year. So just lean back and enjoy as I do.
I am already looking forward to the next soundboard pack. Well done, Ernst ! (Ciscoking)
