Presley Elvis - Shooting Star In Largo (2CD) (Käytetty CD)
€30,00Quick ViewFollowing the remarkable success of our „THE MOON IS FALLING“ CD, it is time to move on to yet another exciting project. Straight Arrow is pleased to announce this new 2CD set, featuring two concerts from the June 1976 Bicentennial tour, in topnotch audience recorded quality.
As all die-hard fans know 1976 was a somewhat problematic year for Elvis, nevertheless the June concerts from Largo are examples of really solid Presley performances, with The King sounding clear and enthusiastic and most important – in good voice.It is worth mentioning that Elvis met Elton John prior to his evening show in Largo. Before he left, the British singer asked Elvis to sing „Heartbreak Hotel” (which Elvis did), and informed him that his parents would also be in the audience. Elton and Presley said goodbye cordially and Elton was escorted once again to his seat in the arena, but not without posing for a picture with an illustrious fan: Lisa Marie, the daughter of his idol.
Both shows were taken directly from recently found original audience-recorded master tapes and they were recorded by a famous photographer of many Elvis 70s concerts, American superfan Harold Jean Newton (July 23, 1939 – June 10, 2009). These historic concerts were never before available in the good sound quality – until now!
The June 27th, 1976, 2:30pm show was previously released on CD called „BELTWAY TO LARGO“ (2002) from an inferior and slightly incomplete source. The July 27th 8:30pm show is previously unreleased. Every second was enhanced to achieve the optimal listening experience. The sound was remastered to the correct speed. If you have enjoyed our previous 1976 releases i.e. „ONONDAGA NIGHTS“ 2CD, we believe that you will love this one as well. Ask your local CD vendor for teasers!This special release is presented in de-luxe double digipack, accompanied with local press review. All images used for this project were taken on stage during Elvis’ 1976 Largo concerts.Photos from June 27th 8:30pm are black and white and they are rare. A couple of them have been added in spite of the problematic quality, for historic reasons.

Presley Elvis - Double Dynamite 2CD (Live 1970) (Käytetty CD)
€50,00Quick ViewThis nicely designed two CD set (all photos derive from August’70) presents a full Vegas evening in Elvis land, with both the dinner and midnight shows from Wednesday, 19 Aug’70.
Right off the bat two things must be said: one, these are sourced from very good stereo, audience-recorded tapes and two, Elvis’ singing is absolutely brilliant. Anyone who’s seen either ’That’s The Way It Is’ or ’The Lost Performances’ won’t be surprised by what they hear on these discs. Tanned, thin as a rake and handsomer than ten movie stars, Elvis seems completely in control of the band, the audience and, most importantly, himself. Here, despite being in Vegas, is an artist reaping the benefits of nearly two years of terrific work, from the ’68 Special through the American Studios sessions the following year and a return to the stage the previous August. Ain’t it funny how times slips away?
Apparently recorded by the same individual, both shows are extremely enjoyable. One can hear everything Elvis says in between the songs and the rhythm section is loud and clear; listen out for Elvis’ quite audible acoustic guitar strumming during the first few numbers! Using headphones to dig this release is almost akin to being in the showroom! One drawback, which should’ve been corrected by Rock Legends, is that Disc 1 is off-pitch, running a bit too fast (boo!); for the midnight show on Disc 2 this problem is corrected.
The dinner show kicks off with a power-packed ”Tiger Man” (some collectors believe there’s an edit which cuts ”That’s All Right, Mama” but I disagree; one can clearly hear the audience react to his coming on stage during the ”Tiger Man” intro vamp) and is thoroughly entertaining for the next 45 minutes. Beyond the awesome vocals, the audience witnesses a real jokey Elvis, from the dialogue preceding ”I Got A Woman” (”I just got through eatin’, I don’t really feel like churnin’ it up too much … I eat breakfast at the same time you people have dinner”) or ”Hound Dog” (”Lord have mercy, I’m a gray goose”) to ”Heartbreak Hotel” (”Since my baby left me — where’d she go?”). The laughter is polite but not overwhelming!
The set is complete save for ”Love Me Tender,” which gets truncated after the first notes (reputedly due to an over-long ”kissing session” in the audience), while ”You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me” is given a rare performance. In general the 50’s numbers are given the bum’s rush, while his showpiece numbers like ”You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin'” and ”The Wonder Of You” are absolutely magnificent. Another telling moment is when someone cries out for his great recent single ”Kentucky Rain” (Elvis at first thinks the person says ”Turning Gray”!), which he never quite gets to. Listen closely and be treated to a few seconds of ”Ave Maria” (during ”I Got A Woman”) and the Coasters’ ”Along Came Jones” (prior to ”Hound Dog”).
After midnight, following some peculiar organ warm-up piece, Elvis struts out to belt ”That’s All Right, Mama” (at the song’s conclusion hear the taper mention that ”last time he sung ”Tiger Man” first”). ”Welcome to the Landmark, I’m Johnny Cash,” Presley jokes. In fact, Elvis repeats the same Gatorade and Ed Sullivan jokes from the dinner show (uh-oh, the seeds of Vegas rut), but this time the audience laughs a great deal; perhaps a later hour means a looser crowd? In any case, Elvis is even better during this 70 minute performance!
He mysteriously mentions that ”Tiger Man” (done as the third song of the set) was ”the second record that I ever recorded.” Then he proceeds to rock the hell out of the showroom. In fact, the opening triad of ”That’s All Right, Mama,” ”I Got A Woman” and ”Tiger Man” is as exciting as any he ever did on stage in the 1970’s. Evidently ”Love Me Tender” is his ”kissing the girls” number, as it rambles along for over seven minutes with hardly any vocals! It’s hard to believe that Elvis waded into the crowd back then, but one could say that the man was having fun on stage. Within a week that would change, with an anonymous death threat that culminated in a high-tension, FBI-attended Saturday evening show on the 29th (see the 1995 book ’Revelations From The Memphis Mafia’ for more details). It would be fair to imagine he never did such a thing again afterwards.
Elvis delivers a lovely rendition of ”I’ve Lost You” and a simply gorgeous ”I Just Can’t Help Believin’.” As usual, the audience claps over the false ending to the song (mixed out of the official release on the ’That’s The Way It Is’ album); however, this is classic Presley using his most ambitious arrangement on stage ever, save for ”An American Trilogy” in 1972. ”Polk Salad Annie” retains some of the delicious swampiness so delightful in his February’70 versions, while trading dinner show ”goofin’ around” for pure midnight menace. The remainder of the gig features hot romps through ”Johnny B. Goode” and ”Suspicious Minds” (he’s already using the ”shove it up your nose” line here) and soaring, majestic versions of ”The Wonder Of You” and ”Bridge Over Troubled Water.” Even the silly, self-mocking intro to ”Hound Dog” works, being funnier than what he gave the dinner crowd.
If ’Double Dynamite’ was taken from a nicely mixed soundboard tape, one would have to call these discs indispensable; as it is, most of us will never get closer to an August’70 gig than this, making it a worthy addition to the pile of 1976 soundboards gathering dust in your ”import” collection.

Presley Elvis - From Hawaii to Las Vegas (1973) (Käytetty CD)
€70,00Quick ViewMielenkiintoinen! 1973 harjoitusmatskua!! Ihan kohtalainen äänenlaatukin… Kyllä ainakin mulle kelpaa…
The new 5 digipack release is a cassette recording of Elvis’ January 25 dress rehearsal for his January/February 1973 season at The Las Vegas Hilton. The rough audio quality is more than compensated by the fascinating insight into how Elvis worked in order to create his shows. With little talk, and a lot of music, we are invited to a first row presentation of what he had in mind, and yet he decided to change the repertoire the next day. Among the many songs is ”Separate Ways” – rehearsed with and without the orchestra and a song that Elvis chose to never perform in public.”
