February 19 - Live In Las Vegas

Coming soon from the new Universum Productions import-label is the CD "Live In Las Vegas" containing the almost complete Dinner Show from August 7, 1969. This performance was recorded from the audience at the International Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. It has a familiar sound like other already released audience recorded tapes of that period. We would classify it "average", the show itself of course is really great.

Tracks:

Intro / Blue Suede Shoes - Foolin‘ Around - I Got A Woman - All Shook Up - Elvis Welcomes The Audience - Love Me Tender - Jailhouse Rock / Don‘t Be Cruel - Heartbreak Hotel - Hound Dog (Slightly Incomplete) - Havin‘ Fun On Stage - Memories - Talking With The Audience - Mystery Train / Tiger Man - Life Story (Incomplete) - Baby What You Want Me To Do - Runaway - Are You Lonesome Tonight - Yesterday / Hey Jude - Band Introductions - In The Ghetto - Suspicious Minds - What‘d I Say - Can‘t Help Falling In Love.
