Advantages: Elvis sings in his hometown

Disadvantages: None

During 1974 Elvis Presley was focussing on a very hard touring schedule and did not record any songs in a recording studio at all. In order to have new material to release, Elvis' record company recorded many of the live shows, including the one that he have in his hometown, Memphis. They were hoping that these would be great performances that they would be able to put onto a new album, and they were right.

This particular CD from the Elvis Presley specialist record label FTD provides the whole show, whereas the original album released in 1974 did not include all of the songs and indeed had fake audience applause dubbed onto it over the songs, which has been removed from this release.

The performances on this CD are fantastic. My favourites are SUSPICIOUS MINDS, WHY ME LORD and HOW GREAT THOU ART as Elvis sings with such power on these songs.

This is a fantastic CD which is highly recommended for all Elvis fans.
