The new Audiophile Records label will release the CD titled "The Vegas Years Volume 1" in March. This CD will contain a complete audience recording of Elvis' March 31, 1975 Midnight show from Las Vegas. According to the information we received the sound quality is "excellent for an audience recording standard" and the sound was digitally restored. Bonus tracks were taken during the dinner and midnight shows from March 30, 1975. The running time is approxomately 78:13 minutes.
Attention has been paid to the artwork. The CD will come with a full color 8-page booklet with many related photos from Spring 1975, an informative essay and excerpts from the press reviews.

I like the tracklist. It was a very good Vegas season anyway. But I don't buy those audience recordings...too bad it's not a soundboard.

Very interesting setlist. Elvis was in good shape during this Las vegas season. If the sound is o.k.there`s nothing to say against this release. It should be a good one..!!

Well from what I have been told this is a VERY good 'audience' recording, therefore it becomes highly collectable release!
