I FOUND MY THRILL IN VEGAS (2-CD IN 3-PANEL DELUXE DIGI-PACK) PANTHER RECORDS PR-003 PRE ORDER

Description

The autumn of 1973 was a difficult time for Elvis. Health issues—likely exacerbated by his divorce from Priscilla, which was particularly painful for him—played a role in this. It is all the more remarkable, then, that he delivered such fantastic recording sessions at Memphis’s Stax Studio in December 1973. This positive momentum continued during his Las Vegas residency in January and February 1974. Elvis’s shows during this period were characterized by high spirits and a genuine enthusiasm for performing. While there was somewhat less interaction with the audience between songs, this did not detract from the overall great quality of the concerts. Two truly outstanding performances took place on February 7 (the dinner show and the midnight show). Although the dinner show appeared on CD seventeen years ago, the midnight show has never before been released on CD. We are therefore offering a previously unreleased show on this new double-CD set. As always with Panther Records, the recordings have been remastered using state-of-the-art technology and feature excellent, clear audience-sourced audio.
