Released by the Redemption import record label is the 5 LP / 4 CD-set 'Ol’ Swivel Hips Still Wovs’ Em'.
Publicity stated: This super deluxe box set is focussing on Elvis’ third tour of 1977. Elvis’ live performances in 1977 are often criticized and not without a reason. But Elvis was still offering his fans an enjoying time, the magic of seeing Elvis in person probably exceeded the fact he often delivered a standard and sometimes even mediocre performance. The reactions of the spectators are very telling. They scream, shout and get wild for their hero.

While listening to the recordings of these shows you cannot draw any other conclusion than that the shows were sometimes below par, although often with highlights! But the charisma of Elvis was enormous, which probably made this unnoticed by most of the fans present.
This set contains soundboard and multitrack recordings from an important and final part of his tremendous career. This set is very limited and available in red or white or mixed colored vinyl.

More Legal Troubles
Michael Lockwood chasing 6-figure-sum From Elvis’ Trust: More legal battles for Riley Keough to deal with as Lisa Marie's ex-husband Michael Lockwood demands a six-figure compensation for legal fees.
In Touch has reported that his case has been delayed as a LA Superior Court judge ruled “additional evidence” was required to grant his petition for fees from The Promenade Trust. Riley Keough was appointed as administrator of The Promenade Trust, which holds most of Elvis’ estate, following her mother’s death in 2023.
Elvis’ only child left behind around $30 million for her three children, Riley and her 15-year-old twins Harper and Finley. Priscilla also initially challenged Riley being named sole administrator but dropped her fight after Riley agreed to pay her $1 million.
Michael Lockwood was appointed guardian of his and Lisa Marie's twins Harper and Finley and following their 2016 split they then fought over custody for years and were still fighting months before she passed. In March, Michael filed a petition, on behalf on Harper and Finley, demanding Riley pay legal fees racked up following Lisa Marie’s death.
In the filing Lockwood said he helped Riley and Priscilla settle their issues. His attorney said, “from the outset, Michael and his counsel played a central role in helping keep the parties focused on resolving those issues with minimal court intervention. Importantly, Michael was able to achieve his goal of ensuring the court issues were all resolved effectively and cost-efficiently.”
Michael asked for Riley to pay $153,650. Recently a hearing was held where the judge decided not to rule on Michael’s petition. The judge said Lisa Marie’s ex needed to present additional evidence and another hearing has been set for August 2024.
