Is this a soundboard or an audience recording? I really hope FTD comes up with a release from this July tour (preferably the first week of the tour, before the trouble with The Sweets set in). I have never seen Elvis live, but if I had the opportunity to choose one concert, I would have picked one from this tour. Probably July the 12th relying on people who were there.

I was at this concert and it was one of Elvis's best concert in 1975. It has been released so many times as a audience recording. Is there any soundboard recordings of this concert?
