May 10 - No More Feedbacks !

The Rock legends importlabel announced the re-release of "No More Feedbacks!" containing the June 3, 1976 performance as recorded in Fort Worth, TX. The total time is 70:18 minutes.

From the press-release:
This concert was released nine (9) years ago as a double CD set titled '' The Elvis Presley Show - Holding Down The Fort '' and featured part of the opening acts on the first CD. The original tape had some damages and omissions, and therefore the show was made complete while using the same songs performed a month later at the same venue. It was well edited and runs as a complete show. It isn't most popular period for Elvis' concert but the two shows recorded in Fort Worth, TX turned out to be rather good at the time. The sound engineer Bruce Jackson was on a lucky and bad day altogether, but Elvis' mood turned the situation into a good one for his best sounding man on tour.

This concert has been unavailable for many years now and no doubts some younger fans, or others who missed it would like to have this now into their collection. It will be a very limited edition and here's your chance to get a copy!
