We have nice packaging and we have a good show. So this release should be worthwhile. Elvis is very talkative, jokes with the audience and we have an appealing setlist. The show is very long and belongs to the best of this Vegas stop.

just received my copy late yesterday and listened to it 4 times by now. ELVIS is in a wonderful voice and mood, also it fills me with sympathetic joy to hear the audience having such a wonderful time. it makes this release a gem. Try to get a copy. You won't be disappointed!

Great to see some material from the later Vegas engagements. I think the last years of his life is kind of forgotten. Sure, 1969-1972 was a great period in his career, he was looking good and he really sang well. But in those later years he was just as good. I think that he improved his voice over the years, and my opinion is that he sang better at this point of his career than he did during the comeback years

This recording needs to be speed corrected (badly!!), just like their previous release. It's much lower as it should be.
