OK so we get a DECENT Booklet, but hows the sound of a pretty 'routine' 1977 concert?.

Actually, if the sound is any good, I think I'll buy this to get the only 1977 version of "Never Been To Spain" that I've ever heard of.

This is the very last show that I have been attending. And I am really happy I was there ! I sure will buy this one.

PRESYER, how to you personally relate to this concert, as you were there?

Wetherman, I have a question. What's the difference between the 1977 version of Never Been To Spain & earlier versions? I have never heard the 1977 version so it must be something special for you to buy a whole cd for this song. Please advise.

"Never been to Maine" is just a oneliner..

Thanks for that RJ, just a throw away line and not the song then. theoldscudder I'm surprised you should ask a question like that but here is the answer: Never Been To Spain is a great song and Elvis 1977 voice had a certain richness to it that I like. I would have liked to hear a serious later version of the song, that's all.

Nice booklet but the sound quality the most important thing. I hope it will be good.
