Straight Arrow Is back with its first 2024 release of Elvis tour opening show in Mobile, Alabama, June 20, 1973. The CD is titled "The King in The City of Six Flags" (SA/SP 2024-71-02). Every tour opening concert, was a special one, and this show is not an exception. Compared with the previous April tour, Elvis was really full of enthusiasm, in great voice and fantastic mood. These June / July 73 shows are definitely best of the year! There is no need to describe every great performance of this evening but two of them stand out: fantastic versions of "How Great Thou Art" and "An American Trilogy".

The Mobile, June 20th, 1973, 8:30pm tour opening show is previously unreleased until now! This show was not available in acceptable sound previously. Our release has been taken directly from the 24bit digital transfer made in December 2010, of the previously unreleased original audience-recorded cassette. This concert was recorded by Elvis fan, Bob Cleveland, from the USA. Every second was faithfully enhanced to achieve the optimal listening experience. The sound has been remastered to the correct speed. If you have enjoyed our previous 1973 CDs, we believe that you will love this one as well. Ask your local CD vendor for teasers!

Presented in the usual Straight Arrow fashion with the top notch digipack including collection of the photos of Elvis June 1973 tour and review from local Mobile Press, this new release is the beauty that you must not miss!

The Straight Arrow team is always looking for new, unreleased audience-taped shows and for improved versions of the previously released recordings. If you have such unique tapes, even damaged or broken ones, do not hesitate to contact us through your local dealer. We would like to thanks to those who have supplied them in last couple of years! Note: although Mobile is still called "The City Of Six Flags", in last couple of years there are disgraceful attempts to re-write the history and remove Confederation flag from the official city seal. We hope that it will not happen.
