A Legendary Performer Vol. 8
Pre-owned as New
Some of Volume 8's highlights include previously unreleased rehearsals of '' The Wonder Of You '' from February 18, 1970 in stereo, undubbed stereo master of '' Funny How Time Slips Away '' in perfect sound, an extended stereo version of '' The Sound Of Your Cry '' ( alternate take 6 ), an unedited stereo version of '' Danny Boy '' ( alternate take 9 ), three previously unreleased live rendition of '' C.C. Rider, '' '' Heartbreak Hotel, '' and '' An American Trilogy '' from August 1972, excerpts from an Australian radio broadcast containing messages from Elvis and a rare interview by DJ Tom Moffatt at the site of Elvis' arrival in Hawaii on January 9, 1973. All previously released soundboard and rehearsal tracks were remastered from first generation tapes. We feel this is the best of the series so far and all fans should be pleased as well.
