Available from the end of January, Elvis’ November Tour (SR Records Special Product) with focus on Elvis’ November 1971 tour.

Here we proudly present to you the first of three volumes of SR special products dedicated to the year 1971.

After the first attempt in January 2006 with the import Setting The Standard accompanied with a bonus DVD-r first 100 copies only, the necessity to show Elvis’ in live action gave us the push to give shape to this special product series. We accompanied the usual audio concert with a real DVD as we wanted to allow you the possibility to see the man where he reigned: on the stage.
Here we present to you the complete Dallas 13th November 1971 afternoon show, although part (about half) previously issued by Sundial Production in 1996 (Kicked it up in Dallas) here you have the chance to have the complete show in a superior audio quality, a digital transfer of the first-generation copy, the sound was painstakingly restored for your listening pleasure.

Together here we present to you a professional DVD (the lucky people who have the Setting The Standard know what we are talking about) with previously released and unreleased footage from the Dallas afternoon/evening shows and for the first time the complete 20:00 min footage of Kansas City.

The DVD will include the three shows along with a series of special features to give you the idea about how the DVD was made. Elvis in Nov 71’ was a spectacle to see and for all majority of the people who missed the opportunity to attend to the 1971 shows we think this DVD can demonstrate what we are talking about. Working on such old video-tapes of the early eighties hasn’t been easy, we worked for almost one month to give life to 50 minutes of digitally-remastered and edited video.....after a pre-filtered acquisition of the old material we worked for the same time in the restoring of the video-quality and the professional editing of the “NEW” material. All the footage has been digitally restored in order to achieve the optimum image quality. The footage has been synced with audio from the original concert and the 8mm footage speed corrected so that audio and video are timed correctly. We hope the rarity of this video and our determination to make a great job give you the opportunity to enjoy the end result.

Elvis’ November tour is, we think, the best moment of Elvis’ comeback to live shows, the perfect balance between vocal ability and live wild action; both the Dallas shows together with Houston are the best moments of the tour. So we are glad to give you the opportunity to listen and view Elvis at the top of his prowess.

For the first time on this label, the double set will come with double printed DVD sized sleeve, containing a collection of live RARE photographs of the three shows and all the necessary details.
The first 500 copies will come with a bonus collector card.

*) Denotes added from the cdr Dazzling Dallas which sounds terrible to make the show appear complete. Bad patchwork....skip it. SR Records never ever found a better sounding source. They are known for just doing a copy and paste job from cdr to cd.

but, but, but..... this is "superior audio quality, a digital transfer of the first-generation copy, the sound was painstakingly restored for your listening pleasure"... surely they are not telling porky pies. Maybe it was a tough job copying and pasting, dilemma huh, shall we use use right click on the mouse or keyboard short cuts Control c and control v? I would also dearly love to hear from..."(the lucky people who have the Setting The Standard DVd who know what we are talking about)" What a joke this all is. Would rather go buy a toilet roll.

One thing... the sentence "digital transfer of the first-generation copy, the sound was painstakingly restored for your listening pleasure" is basically copied and pasted from Straight Arrow announcement for their new 2CD set (and other older Arrow's announcements). A little bit more of originality, SR!

Only by total time for this show SR not used that PA source, i judge this having a same total time and a different save from same source tape for this show, so not a different source but a little bit clear, in no case a copy paste for something which anyway fans has as mp3 and not as real copies. All i received as answers about this next pressed cd, the sound has a little more bass comparing with my source, i wait SR, being also a fan for any shows Elvis did. Better sources?!.. just a dream which sometimes becomes reality, but in no way for all shows Elvis did. TCB
