January 27 - Such Vinyl

Due for release from the Memphis Recording Service on April 16, 2016 is the double vinyl edition of "Such A Night In Pearl Harbor" for Record Store Day. The original 2012 release was available on CD and came with a 100 page booklet. The vinyl edition comes with a little bonus. 

On March 25, 1961 Elvis Presley performed what would become his final live performance for eight years! The complete recording of that very show is captured here on this limited edition, 180gm, double album set. Also included in the 26 tracks is a vinyl debut of the recently discovered press conference for the show which was not available at the time of the CD version of this release.


As a bonus, the included 24 page booklet is illustrated with many rare large images and extensive, informative linear notes that recall historical facts up to and including Elvis' arrival and performance in Pearl Harbor.
