June 24 - That's The Way It Is In Motion

The 
Millbranch Music import label has released the DVD 'That's The Way It Is - In Motion', previously released as part of their CD/DVD set 'Rags To Riches'. This is a very limited re-run of only 250 copies.

Publicity stated: The DVD has a running time of more than two hours and while this is definitely not a re-edit of the original 'That's The Way It Is' movie, it is a musical documentary of its own, and represents the album and the songs that appeared on it. And much more! 

Using footage that has no watermarks or similar impairments, we are able to present it in a nice and watchable quality. All of the songs on the DVD are newly edited with several different camera angles. You ́ll see and hear Elvis having fun rehearsing 'You Don ́t Have To Say You Love Me' on July 15, 1970 and also doing the tune live at the Opening Night performance on August 10, which has Elvis calling out Sammy Davis Jr. We have also included an interview segment of Sammy Davis Jr. talking about what he saw on stage that night and it accompanies the clip. 

A newly edited version of 'I Just Can't Help Believin ́' which goes from rehearsal to live is presented in split screens, using several different angles. Also on this DVD are newly edited performances of ''Make The World Go Away', 'Polk Salad Annie',  'I've Lost You' and 'The Walk Through The Audience' (which has never been edited properly before). 

Added to that are several split-screen performances like 'Heartbreak Hotel' from the August 12th 1970 Dinner Show and 'Bridge Over Troubled Water'. The 'Little Sister / Get Back' sit down medley has been edited properly for the first time and is for sure one of the many highlights on our DVD.

'Blue Suede Shoes' has been re-edited, despite its appearance in the original movie. This DVD brings you a great experience in going back to Las Vegas in the summer of 1970!
