Press Note:
The third release from Rock Legends is " Mood Swings " featuring the infamous
closing show recorded from the soundboard in Las Vegas, NV on September 2, 1974.
The sound quality is a major improvement over the first issue and will contain
too the first song performed by Voice titled " I Couldn't Live Without You "
that was missing on the original. We didn't want the show to start with dialogue
instead of music we have spliced in a version of " C.C. Rider " recorded less
than a month after this one. Elvis' mood swings were legendary during this
period of time, and perhaps a bit over the edge on this one. The sound
improvement makes it more pleasant as a muffled sound always make a recording
sounding less than it was in reality. It will never be his best concert but
definitely one of his best representation. As a bonus the second CD features the
complete August 20, 1973 M.S., a totally different mood and one of the best ever
audience recordings released, and superior to many soundboard recordings.
This third release by Rock Legends is a LIMITED EDITION presented in a full
color digipak with photos related to the time when both shows were recorded.
Another high quality set from Rock Legends you don't want to miss !
