From Elvis In Vegas

July 19, 2012 | Music

Out this month will be "From Elvis In Vegas" from the new label CONVAIR. We can expect a rare recording of a great live performance Elvis did at the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel on March 30, 1975 (Midnight Show). Recorded by a fan in the audience this release is for the collectors. Accompanied by a 20 page booklet telling interesting facts about Elvis´ March/April 1975 engagement in words and pictures it´s a very nice collectors-package.

Nothing is said about the sound quality; I expect the worst. I am interested in this release. The March 75 season is one of the strongest.

Sounds is okay.. at least if you don't mind the fact that one certain lady keeps on shouting 'I love you Cliff'.. as she thinks she is attending a Cliff Richard concert..

It`s a fine show from a good Vegas season. I always liked these shows from 1975 ....be it March or December. We have a good setlist and Elvis really enjoyed his time on stage..he was taking care of business. My cdr already sounds pretty good.. so we can expect at least a decent release..

Vegas Vegas Vegas shows... E.N.O.U.G.H. Elvis had given 1128 shows and out of 738 were different city concerts. Why on earth all Elivs fans nearly here always want 1970,69 shows and now 75... Especially FTD keeps on Vegas, it drives me crazy. Elvis is MORE than Vegas shows...

Possibly because in Vegas it was easier to stealthly tape the show?

Plus in Vegas and Tahoe the concert halls were not the vast arenas Elvis played while on tour, thus enabling generally much better recording quality. We all know that Elvis was more than Vegas, but we all prefer better audio recordings.
