April 09 - Burning Burgers at the International

The Sony Legacy exclusive Record Store double LP “Live At The International Hotel” is out, a few days before Record Store Day 2019. The LP contains a sticker that states “from the upcoming box set covering all of the August 1969 live recordings”. So the rumored “1969 Las Vegas” set appears to be confirmed. 

Description for the RSD LP

Following his triumphant comeback special for NBC at the end of 1968, Elvis Presley made a highly-publicized return to live performance in 1969, booking an exclusive engagement at The International Hotel in Las Vegas. Elvis treated audiences to a raucous rock set inspired by the recent sessions to his just-released studio album From Elvis In Memphis, backed by vocal groups The Imperials and The Sweet Inspirations as well as an early version of his famed TCB Band. Live In Las Vegas 1969 showcases this incredible, important phase in Elvis’ career with a previously unreleased set from the first of many engagements at The International Hotel.

The US based Applebee’s used Elvis Presley's "Burning Love" in a new burger commercial for their "Bigger Bolder Grill Burgers".
