*Coming Soon!* Just in time for the 50th anniversary of Elvis Presley's very last concert, which he gave on Mother's Day 1976 in Lake Tahoe, ReelTrax continues its commitment to high-quality products and is releasing this concert on vinyl for the first time – made for the true fan and, as usual, limited to 200 copies on black vinyl and 3-color transparent vinyl! Secure your copy while supplies last!
Please note: This release will also be available as a deluxe 3-panel, 2-CD set!
*THE LAST CONCERT IN LAKE TAHOE* is a beautiful deluxe 3-LP set (!) with printed inner sleeves, containing intensive liner notes and featuring a newly remastered audience recording of the concert from May 9, 1976 at the Sahara Tahoe Hotel in Lake Tahoe.
In 1993, the label "MAC" released this concert on CD, albeit incomplete. Since this set sold out within a few months and has since become a true collector's item, the renowned quality label "Rainbow Records" decided to make the very interesting content of the concert accessible to the widest possible audience and released a 2-CD set in 2008 containing the complete concert in improved quality.
One thing is clear: this concert is a must-see for every fan. Elvis was obviously in a very relaxed mood and didn't care that the hotel management was still desperately trying to force him to play shorter shows. In fact, Elvis gave the crowd more than they probably expected and was on stage for the longest time he had ever performed (an impressive two-hour set), singing, laughing, and talking as if he were chatting with friends in the living room of Graceland.
The recording has now been carefully processed using the latest technology, and ReelTrax is proud to present a newly remastered version in the best possible quality, revealing details that have never been heard before!
A few words about the contents: Of course, you'll find the tracklist at the end of this announcement, but we'd like to highlight some real gems of this set. A rare and unrehearsed version of "Return To Sender" deserves mention, as does another rarity: "Young And Beautiful." "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," dedicated to Linda Thompson and sung with passion, is also included. Elvis tells a very funny story about the "boat scene" in the film "Blue Hawaii" and even sings a few lines of his "Sun" classic "Blue Moon of Kentucky."
Overall, there is a lot to discover when listening to Elvis's not only longest, but also very unusual concert!
