The new release by Touchdown Productions announced the release of the CD "Impossible" containing the midnight show from August 28, 1971.
From the press-release:
The previously unreleased recording was taken from a 1st generation copy of the original audience recorded tape. One of the highlights - next to others - is a strong version of "I just can't help believin'" which Elvis only did four times in 1971! The sound-quality is of good quality for an audience recording! As usual the CD will be packaged with a beautiful designed 16-page booklet.

The End Is Near For The Hillcrest House
Another 'historic building' will soon be gone. The new owner of the King's famous mansion in Beverly Hills has decided to demolish it and replace it by a new, modern style house. The document below says it all. Elvis bought the home at 1174 N Hillcrest Rd, Beverly Hills, CA 90210 for $400,000 in 1967, the same year he married Priscilla.
