This is what Gravel Road says about their latest escape:

Because so many of you enjoyed our great 1971 Las Vegas releases "SNOWBIRD REVISITED” and "ONLY BELIEVE" we want you to have the promised third soundboard CD of this collection "LEANER AND MEANER THAN EVER" which includes the January 28, 1971 Midnight show in Las Vegas with probable the best appearance of this engagement 21 tracks filled with power! A collection of his hit singles, meaner and leaner performed than ever.. This is just a minor glimpse of the appearance in person that are sold out weeks before opening night and finds fans literally traveling from all over the world to see him.

All packed into a tri-fold deluxe digipack with extensive booklet and liner notes and plenty photos to match the two previous releases of this excellent 1971 January / February Vegas season. All in excellent sound and better than before.

I can't quite agree that there are too many rereleases, because as a new collector of boots (I have all the FTDs concerts, and will keep supporting them as long as they exists) I have a hard time finding a lot of the older releases. I also think it is great when there are rereleased concerts in better sound and in a better/more beautiful package (no matter how slight an improvement), because then you have the choice as an old collector to get the new one or keep the old, although I can empatise with those of you who feel they Are torn between buying the same material again and again or not getting the best product. I also think that there are released an OK amount of new concerts when you add FTDS and boots (audience and soundboards), considering the amount allready in circulation. But of course we are many that love hearing Elvis concerts so much that we would like a new release once or twice a week if possible, but I am not sure that it is the rereleases that stand in the way of that :) . Keep TCBing and lets cross our fingers for even more new releases in the future. (NB, and also for some on tour shows in multitrack, for our and Mature75s sake :) . )

Must say GravelRoad does a great job in design and packaging. Some of the releases are worth the money for that alone..
