Grand Roulette At The Sahara
MEMORY RECORDS – Pre-owned as New
As recorded live in Lake Tahoe, Nevada; at the Sahara Tahoe Hotel showroom, May 6th, 1973 - Midnight show. The forthcoming "Memory Records" label CD release is entitled "GRAND ROULETTE AT THE SAHARA". In 1973, Elvis appeared at Del Webbs Sahara Tahoe hotel for the second time since July/August 1971, and his concerts were an even bigger succes this time, with all tickets being sold out in advance. This CD features the previously unreleased Midnight show from May 6th, 1973. Its a rather typical set with no real surprises, but nevertheless Elvis is in fine fettle and gives a strong and entertaining show for an enthusiastic crowd.
The setlist is fairly similar to "Aloha From Hawaii", with flawless performances of "Steamroller Blues", "You Gave Me A Mountain", "What Now My Love" and "I'll Remember You" being particular highlights. Other strong performances include a haunting "I'm Leavin'", a majestic "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and the surprising addition of "It's Over", just before the shows conclusion. Even if this not the greatest concert ever by 'The King', it is nevertheless much more than just a professional "casino show routine" its the world's greatest entertainer running his grand roulette at the Sahara Tahoe hotel.
This previously unreleased recording was taken from an early generation copy of the original master tape, as recorded by a member of the audience. All tracks were digitally restored for your best possible listening pleasure. All accompanying photographs were taken between February and July 1973.
