March 22nd, 2023 | News today: I'm sure you have noticed the my Elvis Corner looks very much the same as it did 25 years ago, it's crappy, but I'm fine with that. It's the info. that matters. Building/updating the Corner has been harder with every new MacOS, the problems have increased steadily. During the last year, I have been unable to change or update any pictures, and now that I have added the first new PA in a looong time, I notice that I can't link the new title to track list. I could, of course, re-build the whole thing with up-to-date software...but, I just don't have the time anymore. At the same time, I don't want to shut down, either. So, when you go to the new Pontiac, Michigan source, the track listing is pasted along the description. Not pretty, but that's the way it has to be. Now, for the good news: "Heating Up the Silverdome" Pontiac, Michigan. December 31st, 1975 (PA. 2 CD-set) I believe it's the best source I have heard, and it will probably end up on some bootleg label, sooner than later ;-) DVD: "Elvis - His Best Friend Remembers" |

September 22nd, 2017 | A very unusual report: My old stereo vinyl player died some twenty years ago, I haven’t been able to play my pretty extensive vinyl collection since then, and, to be honest, with no real regret. A few weeks back, at the spur of moment, I bought a small, retro vinyl player, just for the fun of it. And, I wasn’t really prepared for the impact…wow, straight between the eyes…playing the old LPs, that once, in the stone age, meant the world to me…and the records just hit chords in me, that I wasn’t really prepared for…NO, not as clear, NO, not without vinyl statics…and, no bonus tracks… But…there’s..a fluency, Elvis’ voice soars so effortlessly…and…I’m thrown back to where I was…at my parents' record player in 1975, playing ”The Rockin' Days”, when I just knew, that Elvis was IT! |

small update: "Uniondale Hysteria - Final Day" (MXF) |
June 25th, 2015 | I know, I'm painfully aware of the fact that the design of my Elvis Corner is a stinker. It was a stinker 15 years ago, when I launched the site, and it's even more of a stinker today, as cyber world has moved 15 lightyears since then, and my site has remained the same. Today, I brushed it up a bit, deleted obsolete sections, like "My favourites"...and I guess it's still a stinker. But, hey, it's my stinker :-) |

21, 1974 Dinner Show did indeed take a long time coming - I
don't know how many MCs wrongly labelled 08/21/74 DS I have
chucked in the bin. Quite frankly, I gave up hope years ago,

June 26th, 2014 | 37 years to the
day, Elvis gave his final concert. New today: "Elvis As Recorded Live in Lake Tahoe, Nevada" (CONCERTFAN) - it sounds, at least to my ears, a little better than "And The King For Dessert" |

double digipack: "Hot Love in a Long, Cold Winter" (SA/SP) 2 CD-set. Now, this is a case when audience recordings beat SBs. The SBs from this tour are often...painfully revealing and sterile. Here we are invited to a warm, enjoyable concert atmosphere, and I like it! |
February 2nd, 2013 | Newcomers today: "Opening Night 1971"(FP) - I didn't bother when this release when it first came out...but now when I have it, I don't think it's a bad idea at all, to have the surviving SB tracks together in one place. "It's Only Love" (Star) "Alternate Masters Side 13" (Elvis Star) "Alternate Masters Side 14" (Elvis Star) "Alternate Masters Side 15" (Elvis Star) |
January
19th, 2013 |
Today I can enjoy
the fun release of: "Snoopin' Around My Door" (Victorola, 3-CD) |
January 13th, 2013 | R.I.P. John Wilkinson... "Elvis As Recorded Live in Lake Charles" (Elvis Concert Fan) "A Date With Elvis" (EP Fan Records) |
December 30th, 2012 | A new PA AR: "Counting Down to 45" (Vegas. 08/20/75 CS) - a highly interesting show, the sound may not be as crisp as the old release "Top Acts in Vegas Vol. 2", but a little fuller. Good enough to keep. |
December 25th, 2012 | In the spirit of the
Season: "The Bicentennial King vol. 5" (Millbranch- 2 CD) "Left a Good Job in the City" (SA) "Chicago Double-Strike" (SA/SP - 2 CD) "Raising His Own Bar" (Convair) Great additions, especially "Left a Good Job in the City"- a real gem!!! |
December 10th, 2012 | Latest additions: "With a Humble Heart" (SA - 2 CD) "Glitter of the Night" (Touchdown - 2 CD) "Midnight Delight" (Touchdown) "Spring Spirit '74" (Showroom) "A Matter of Duty" (Management 3) "Celluloid Rock - "Love Me Tender" (Flashlight) "Celluloid Rock - "Sound Advice" (Flashlight) "Celluloid Rock - "Young and Beautiful" (Flashlight) "Celluloid Rock - "Kid Galahad Sessions" (Flashlight) "Take One Vol. 7, Ed. 2"(CMT) "The Elvis Files CD 1.1" (Audiofile) FTDs...I just can't get enough: "Hits of the 70s" "From Elvis Presley Boulevard" And one more thing... I bought Arjan Deelen's latest book Walk a Mile in My Shoes. If you are in any way trying to comprehend the phenomena of Elvis Presley...I advice you to get the book - it's about what matters the most...the making of the music, told by the people who were actually part of the making. |
November 12th, 2012 | New stuff today: "Stronger Than Pride" (VV) "Wild Tiger At The Hilton Vol. 4" (MxF) "Wednesday Night Roll Over" (SA) - it is striking how the bootleggers have developed the packaging over the last few years, not least Straight Arrow. Having dabbled with layout myself, it is with sheer pleasure I welcome a disc like this into my collection! |
October 7th, 2012 | It's
good to be a fan! A good pile of the
latest FTDs. Quality, through and through! And, "A Boy From
Tupelo"...what can I say, a priceless document of the single
most important period in the history of rock'n'roll. Thanks to
FTD for a fantastic piece of work and thanks to a good friend
of mine for assisting me getting my book!: "Another Saturday Night Shreveport 1975" "Elvis From Hawaii to Las Vegas" "G.I. Blues" "A Boy From Tupelo" (3 CD) "Welcome Home Elvis" (original Elvis is Back mono mix) "From Memphis to Hollywood" (original G.I. Blues mono mix) More new CDs: "Master & Session -"Early Morning Rain in Memphis" "Master & Session His Hand in Mine By Elvis. Disc 2" "Master & Session -"This is the Story Vol. 2" "Master & Session -"This is the Story Vol. 3" "Greatest Live Hits Of The 50’s" (MRS) "Sunsational" (2 CD, Victorola) "Summertime '73" (Touchdown) "Night on the Town" (Touchdown) "Amore Elvis" (Straight Arrow) ...and two DVDs: "Elvis 1969 - 1970" (Eternale Flame) "TTWII - One Night" (Star) |
September 3rd, 2012 | Two newcomers: "Unedited Masters - Hollywood to Nashville 1972-1980" (Venus) "The Graceland 1976 Masters" (Retro Audio)...and it certainly crowded my iPod last weekend! |
August, 25nd, 2012 | New stuff: I have added a 2nd source (slightly more complete) to "Full House in Vegas" (Vegas. 08/09/73 DS) "Back In The Desert" (Showroom) "Lonesome Summer Breeze" (SA) "Unedited Masters Nashville 1971" (Venus) "From Elvis in Vegas" (Convair) "Christmas Lights On a Friday Night" (SA, 2-CD) "North By Northwest Volume 1" (Unicorn) "Rockin' the Nassau Coliseum" (Unicorn) "The Brightest Star On Vegas Strip Volume 4" (Unicorn) "The Brightest Star On Vegas Strip Volume 5" (Unicorn) "Let Me Be There" (Unicorn) "The Concert Series Volume 7 - Hurt" (Unicorn, 2-CD) "The Concert Series Volume 8 - America the Beautiful" (Unicorn, 2-CD) "The Concert Series Volume 9 - My Way" (Unicorn, 2-CD) "Early Morning Rain" (Unicorn) "Walk That Lonesome Road" (Unicorn) "Double Dynamite" (Unicorn, 2-CD) |
July, 3rd, 2012 | Correction of date: It is now clear that "Setting the Standard" (SR) is misdated. The correct date should be 08/18/71 DS. Correct dates for two songs wrongly included on "Setting the Standard": Little Sister/Get Back: 08/21/71 MS It's Over: 08/10/71 MS Accordingly, "On Top of Vegas" is changed to 08/18/71 DS. I'm glad that's straightened out! |
June, 25th, 2012 | Going through a pile of
old MCs gave us a couple of interesting finds: Nashville. 07/01/73 3pm. "Wild and Woolly" - fuller sound than the speeded "An Afternoon in Nashville" - moreover, we now have "Trilogy", left out on the old release. Vegas. 08/17/71 DS. "On Top of Vegas". New 1st source, sounding better than "Setting the Standard" (and without the two tracks not belonging to the show). Moreover, the final (?) piece in the Houston 06/05/75 "Calling Houston"-puzzle has been laid. Save for "2001 Theme" and most of "Closing Vamp", it's now complete. |
May, 24th, 2012 | New in my collection: "Wild Tiger In Concert" (MXF) "The Bicentennial King Vol. 4" (MM) "Elvis Is Back! Special Edition"(Victorola) "The 8th Wonder of the World" (Venus) - unfortunately no sound improvement... |
May, 16th, 2012 | Newcomers today: "Into The Light" (Touchdown) "Payin' the Dues in Tahoe" (Touchdown) Gee... I love the title "Blue Hawaii The Expanded Alternate Album" (MSR) "Labor Day Madness" (SA, 2 CD) "Top Notch Nashville The Bootleg Series Volume 1" (Elvisone) "Top Notch Nashville The Bootleg Series Volume 2" (Elvisone) Elvis the Concert Years Volume 9 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 10 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 16 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 17 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 25 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 27 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 28 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 31 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 32 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 33 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 34 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 44 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 45 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 46 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 54 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 55 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 65 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 68 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 78 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 86 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 87 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 88 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 91 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 92 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 93 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 94 Elvis the Concert Years Volume 95 |
April 29th, 2012 | New in the world of
unpublisheds: "Hampton Roads 08/01/76 AS - Special D" - a totally new AR. "Atlanta 12/30/76 - The Joy of Singing" - a brand new source, brings this magnificent show to a more complete picture. "Wichita Falls 12/27/76 - Recorded Live in Wichita Falls" - a new MC transfer in terrible sound...sends the old source, that was even worse, in the bin. "Jacksonville 04/16/72 ES - Glimmering in Jacksonville" - a second source, a little more complete, is added. "Jacksonville 05/30/77 - Here To Make You Happy" - a second source is added...it's actually the same source as the old one, but uncompressed. ...and the second source for "Milwaukee 04/27/77" is taken out, as it was superfluous. |
April 8th, 2012 | New today: Yes, finally...AR from Dallas 06/06/75 "Look at the Wild Man Go" - spliced from two sources. Houston 06/05/75 "Calling Houston" is upgraded: the ending (Little Darling, Mystery Train/Tiger Man and Can't Help Falling in Love) is erased, as it was from Houston 06/04/75. The correct ending has been attached to the rest of the concert. The recent AR "Vegas 08/14/73 DS, How Sweet the Sound", has had the ending (CHFIL and Closing Vamp) cut off, as it belongs to 08/10/73 MS |
April 1st, 2012 | An update, and no joke! "The Hillbilly Cat Returns" (Graceland) "Vegas Variety vol. 9" (Rainbow) "Just One More Smile" (Convair) "The Greensboro Show" (Godfather) New ARs: "Vegas 08/14/73 DS, How Sweet the Sound" "Vegas 08/18/73 DS, Tomorrow's Out of Sight" New sources replaced old sources for: "Evansville 10/24/76, Knocking Them Out in Evansville" "Charleston 07/27/76 AS, Thunderbolt in Charleston" |

March 22nd, 2012 | Well hello there, my it's
been a long, long time! Six months, to be exact. I closed my
site, as I had toooo much to do. I still have too much to do,
but I missed the fun, and Elvis is a tough guy to get rid of.
I will take things slowly, if I miss to make an update...it
will be there another day. And if I'm too slow answering
mails, well, that's just the way things will have to be. And
yes, it's good to be back :-) |
September 30th, 2011 | Four
releases by two of the best teams around, SA and Memory. This

March
28th, 2010
|
I have added a new second source to "Seattle. 11/12/70 ES" - actually, it's just not a new source, but a totally different recording. |
February
20th, 2010
|

"California Wave" (Memory) "Live in Vegas" (Show Room) "Something" (Audionics) "Twenty Days & Nights" (Audionics) ...what can I say, Audionics did it again...two piledrivers" Finally, not belonging at my site, I bought the new 2-CD Legacy Edition of "From Elvis in Memphis" - nothing new, really...but, somehow, for some odd reason, I'm more than happy to have it. |
July
25th, 2009
|
"A Change of Mind" (Straight Arrow) - this strange and remarkable show finally in good presentation! |
July
24th, 2009

37 years ago, Elvis had been on stage for about 15 minutes in New York. Today, I'm happy to add lots of goodies to my collection: Imports: "Rock My Soul" (Madison's swan song) "Setting the Day" (SR) "Stranger in the Crowd" (Audionics) "Las Vegas Attraction Number 1" (Show Room) "The Last Vegas Opening Night (Straight Arrow, 2-CD) "Exceeding All Expectations" (Rainbow Records, 2-CD)

DVD: "Elvis in Concert - Remastered" (Back in Time) - yes, it's really the best we have of In Concert to this date. |
May
28th, 2009
|
I have added a handful of YouTube-links to the "The Original Elvis Tribute 2009"-banner at the front page. It's a relief that a tribute can be more than a sweaty fat guy in ill-fitting pyjamas mumbling exaggerated vibrato in Teddy Bear...The fun on stage spills over in these intimate "I-was-there-shots". Great! |
May
26th, 2009

I've been thinking about it for quite some time, and finally I got my own domain for my Elvis Corner. I know I should do something about the scruffy, old design I keep... but that will have to wait until July 32nd... |

A few upgraded unpublisheds: "Houston. 03/01/70 AS" - new source replaces the old source, as it is a tad clearer and a bit longer. "Vegas. 08/12/69 DS" - new source replaces the old, as it sounds a little better. "Vegas. 01/30/71 DS" - new source has a little fuller sound - I've kept the old source, as 2nd source. |
November
3rd, 2008
|
A correction of dates: the newly added "High Summer in Blue - Providence. 06/26/76 AS, is really ES, and "Presley Providence - Providence. 06/26/76 ES", is really AS. Consequently, the old "ETCY vol. 82", is ES. |
October
30th, 2008

New unpublisheds are scarce these days, and it was a great feeling to welcome a new handful into the collection: "Chicago. 06/17/72 AS" (Better sound than what I have heard before) "Vegas. 02/21/71 MS" (Runs at correct speed, and Elvis is more upfront) "Providence. 06/26/76 AS" (Sound is a little fuller than "ETCY vol. 82") "On the Road to Perfection" (A collection of previously released On Tour rehearsals) And yet another "Atlanta. 12/30/76" source, this time it's a 2 CD-set, and probably the longest runtime so far (over 80 min.): "The King In Concert" (J.D. Records 092). |
October

March 30th, 2008 |
While waiting for promising boots and FTDs, I took the opportunity to change MS to DS and DS to MS for "Vegas. 12/06/75"...which should have been done a long time ago. While I was at it, I gave the art work a fix-up. I also cut off the fake ending of "Vegas. 08/25/74 DS". I made new sleeves, and for once, I'm really pleased with the result :-) |

Ohoy there! I'm back! After two months of involuntary absence from cyberspace. My computer has been on endless warranty service, and FINALLY they sent me a completely new computer. Needless to say, I'm up to my neck in catching up, but it's really great to be back. New today: "Rock in Black" (SR Records) 2 CDs.

Great update, just in time for the weekend: New unpublisheds: I have added a third source to "Lake Tahoe 05/11/73 D/S", which is more complete than 1st and 2nd sources separately.

New today: "Elvis Live From the USA" (EFE Promo vol.5). A new first source to "South Bend 09/30/74", the old first source is now second source, and the old second source is...in the bin. I have replaced my old source for "Vegas 08/24/74 M/S" - the sound is a bit better compared to the old source. I have removed the last bit of CHFIL, as I think it's lifted from a different show - and I'm not fully convinced that the first bit of CHFIL and Let Me Be There belong here either. I have added a second source (single disc) to "Vegas 12/06/76", which runs a couple of minutes longer than my old, primary source. Finally, "Unchained Melody" (FTD), which is surprisingly good. |
February
3rd, 2007
|
A new unpublished concert: "Vegas 12/05/76 9pm", which runs a little longer than "Presley at the Hilton" and "In Free Fall". I have added a new first source (2 CD) for "Vegas 12/08/76", the old source (2 CD) is now second source. The old sources for "Providence 06/22/74 A/S" and "Vegas 03/27/75 D/S" have been replaced by better sounding sources. |
January

|
Newcomers: "Let it Be Me" (Audiophile Records), "Red Hot in Vegas" (SA 2006-5-02) and a new unpublished: "Vegas 03/31/75. D/S", which is undoubtedly the same source as "ETCY vol. 39", but the sound is a bit fuller. |
January
13th, 2007

Three new ones today: "Tiger Man - An Alternate Anthology - volume 4", "Elvis Sixties - EFE Promo 12" and "It Is No Secret" (Captain Haddock). |
December 1st, 2006 | I'm happy to announce a new and more complete source of "Vegas 08/30/73 M/S" and a new and terrific CD-r-collection, called "I Play the Blues". |

I was fortunate to get a new DVD-r, called "The Hottest Act in Town" - it consists of mainly EoT-material (raw), but this isn't what makes this DVD so cool; it's a section with November '71 live material, where someone has made a really good job! I get goosebumps all over!!! Btw. I know I should be flattered, not pissed off: First it was "Trying to get to Memphis" (SR Records), then "Second Night" (Graceland Records) and now "Red Hot in Vegas" (Straight Arrow) - I don't mind the bootleg companies borrowing my titles, but wouldn't it be a decent gesture only to drop me a line? |

I have added a 2nd source (with a couple of new bits) to "Lake Tahoe 05/11/73 D/S". And I have changed the date for the Detroit '74 concert, from "09/29/74 A/S", to "10/04/74 E/S" - I upgraded sound and edit a bit while I was at it. |

A beautiful string of new DVDs: "Bicentennial - Live In Charlotte & Chicago", "Aloha From Sweden", "Blue Hawaii '72", "There's Only One Elvis", "Through My Eyes" (2-DVD), "Never Ending Love", "Elvis Lives: 25th Anniversary Concert" and "Inside G.I. Blues". Two CDs: "50th Anniversary of TV Guide" (It's Elvis Time) and "Aloha From Sweden" (Elvis Unlimited) - this CDs comes along the DVD with the same title - the recording sounds surprisingly good, and it makes me wonder what Elvis' live recordings would have sounded like, if they had been recorded with the technology of today. |

"Shakin' Up the Great Lakes" (Fort Baxter CS-1003), "Holding Down the Fort" (Madison CWP/15 MS) and "Spinout - The 100% Complete Recording Sessions" (3702-1)...not too bad! |

"Chaos in College Park" (SA 2006-4-02) and two collections with mostly published material...placed among the unpublisheds anyway: "Impolite Elvis" and "Tough Way To Make a Living, Vol. 2". |

Three new unpublisheds: "Vegas 08/20/71 D/S" - sounds a little better than ETCY vol. 2". "Vegas 08/27/74 M/S" - incomplete with multiple cuts BUT, the sound is magnificent...I never listened to this show this way before...and it's captivating! "Vegas 03/28/75 D/S": I have replaced my old 1st source with a slightly better sounding one. |

After six Elvis-free weeks, I'm back home again, and it feels great! Well, not completely Elvis-free...It's been 20 years since I last bought Elvis on vinyl, but my (too expensive) summer leisure this year has been chasing old LPM- and LSP-issues. Great fun! Newcomers in my collection: "I Found My Thrill", "Elvis Presley" and "Clambake" - how can you not love the goodies FTD spoils us with? "Let it Roll" (Madison), "The Sound of Vegas 1" (SR Records), "And I Love You So" (no label), "Going Back in Time" (Straight Arrow) and "The On Tour Interviews" (It's Elvis Time promo). And finally, "A Legendary Performer vol. 1" - a great DVD with rare bits and pieces - I'm looking forward to getting volume 2. |

New today: Madison's "One Night Only!" (YES!), "A Thunder in the Night" (SR), "Elvis Presley as the one called Charro!" (JAT), "Return to Splendour-reissue" (Memory) and the first VCD in a long time (it's a good one) "TTWII 08/10/70 O/S". I have also made new sleeves for "Lake Tahoe 05/07/76 M/S", and finally, I have added a compilation called "Tough Way to Make a Living" - it shouldn't really be here as it's mainly RCA- and SB-material, but there are also a couple of unpublished tracks, so I put it here anyway. |

....and DONE! I have added track listings to all the PA-unpublisheds. I'm quite happy about it, and I hope that I haven't made too many silly mistakes during endless square-eyed hours in front of my Macintosh. |

Madison does it again! "A Legendary Performer vol. 8" is a delight; a superb packing and a tasteful selection of songs - well done! And the concert DVDs keep rolling in: "Rocking the garden" (Memory/Dragonheart) - as was the case with "Time Warp", there is no improvement when it comes to picture quality - but it's great to have the two shows on one DVD, and they put a lot of effort behind making the picture and sound sync. I have had the set for quite some time, but now I'm glad to add it to my site: "Blue Hawaii Tapes", a 5 CD-set fom the Blue Hawaii sessions, and it's the best set I have of all the Blue Hawaii-material that's been released. By using three different AR-sources, I have made a 2-CD-set of "Vegas 12/15/75 C/S", that runs no less than 91 minutes. The sound quality ranges from very good, to poor. Finally, I have replaced my old source from "Vegas 08/12/69 D/S", with a slightly better sounding one. .... I almost forgot, the new FTDs arrived today: "Made in Memphis" and "Something For Everybody" - I haven't had time to listen to them yet, but I can hardly wait... |

A new unpublished: "Vegas 09/04/72 D/S", which is most certainly from the same source as "ETCY vol. 37", but I think this sounds a tad better. I made minor improvements to "Omaha 07/01/74 E/S", and I made new sleeves while I was at it. |

Finally! This update has kept me busy for two weeks...it's almost as time consuming as it is fun, fixing up old MCs to CDs, with sleeves and all. New today: Bootlegs: "The Lightning Storm in Florida" (MEMORY), "Better than Ever" (MEMORY), "A Legendary Performer volumes 3 & 4 (a really pleasant surprise), "What Now My Love" (X-Entertainment), "That's All Right Anyway You Do" (no label) and "ETCY vol. 37". Unpublisheds: "Vegas. 08/30/74 M/S" (2 CD), "Dayton. 10/06/74 E/S", "Vegas. 03/18/75 O/S" (a little more complete, with "If You Love Me Let Me Know"), "Uniondale. 07/19/75 E/S", "Vegas. 12/13/75 M/S" and "Chicago. 10/14/76". DVDs: "Memphis Recording Service vol. 1" and "The Echo Will Never Die" (Dutch). |

It's not a very common occurence anymore, so I'm more than happy to welcome two completely new unpublisheds to my collection: "Vegas 09/04/70 M/S" - pretty good sound, but incomplete (46 min.) "Lake Tahoe 05/21/74 M/S" - good sound, also incomplete (46 min.) Four tracks have multiple cuts. The recently updated "Vegas 02/23/71 C/S", has gotten another face lift: I have added a new, complete source as 1st source, the old 1st source is now 2nd source...and the old 2nd source is in the bin. A friend of mine did a very good detective job when he pinpoited what we have suspected for quite some time: "Little Sister/Get Back" and "It's Over" do NOT belong to "Vegas 08/17/1 D/S" (Same as "Setting the Standard"). "Little Sister/Get Back" is lifted from "08/21/71 M/S ("The Cisco Kid Strikes Again") and "It's Over" was cut from "Vegas 08/10/71 M/S". |

What would you do without good friends? It's been a busy Elvis week : New boots: "All That I Am" (Mystery Train) - a bit of a surprise, with interesting On Tour interviews that are new, at least to me. The two new EFE Promos: "The Boy From Tupelo Mississippi" and "From Union Avenue to Thomas Street 1954 - 1969". "Happy Days" (No Label) - TTWII rehearsals. "Last Tango in Tahoe" (Fort Baxter) - hmm shouldn't it be "the last tango, but one"? Anyway, it's a real beauty! "Pieces of My Life" (Straight Arrow) - another surprise, they did a good job on that wow-and-flutter. This show is SO good! "Setting the Standard" (SR Records). I read on the Internet that this is a "totally new show, even for collectors" - well, it's not, it's been around for many years. The problem has been the date: is it "08/17/71 D/S" or "08/18/71 D/S"? I have chosen to label it the 18th, but I'm changing it back to the 17th, for the sake of uniformity...although I can't say that I'm positively certain that the 17th is correct. And again, I'm still not convinced that "It's Over" and "Little Sister/Get Back" really belong to the show. The sound is no better than the old A/R, but the DVD that comes along with the CD is pretty neat. "Tucson, Arizona 72" (no label) and finally "The Very Best of the Diamond Anniversary Label) (DAE), which is good if you don't have the other DAE-releases. New DVDs are: "Time Warp" (MEMORY) - the quality may not be better than the old VCD- and VHS-issues, but here we have much of the best audience footage all under one roof...and it's a winner! "Setting the Standard" - the menu system is a little odd, but here's some nice '71 footage. "At the 1962 Seattle World's Fair" - an interesting DVD with behind the scenes footage from the filming of "It Happened at the World's Fair". Unpublisheds: I have added a new source to "Odessa 05/30/76 A/S", which is 1st source, as the sound is slightly fuller compared to the old source. I brushed up the old sleeves a bit. I have received a new "Bloomington 05/27/76", which is in a bit better sound and the edit is more correct - moreover, I added the last tracks from my old 2nd source to it in order to make it complete, and it's now a single CD-set. I gave the old sleeves a bit of a makeover here too.Finally, a sharp-eared friend of mine has found that the first few tracks on "Vegas 08/24/74 M/S" belong to "Vegas 08/24/74 D/S" - the real M/S beginning can of course be found on FTD's "It's Midnight". ...I think this is it :-) |

New to "Vegas 02/23/71 C/S" is a more complete second source, with "Heartbreak Hotel" and an uncut "Don't Be Cruel" - The beginning of Blue Suede Shoes is missing though, but it can be found complete on the first source. |

Ahhh...I wish they could go on forever...I just got the new goodies from FTD: "Southern Nights" and "Loving You". |

The news for today is a new 1st source to "Vegas 03/28/75 D/S", which is more complete than my old source (now 2nd source, in a bit fuller sound). |

I was very fortunate to have a rare promo as Christmas present: "Elvis Christmas Peace" - promo sampler from Hong Kong/Taiwan. I have added two sources from "Roanoke 04/11/72". Both sources come from the same recording as "Rockin' Roanoke", but the three have travelled different ways since 1972 - the "new" sources include "For the Good Times" and a complete "An American Trilogy". Also new is the DVD "The Memphis Flash". |

A new unpublished: "Vegas 03/21/75 D/S", and it sounds a bit better than "ETCY vol. 59". |

The incomplete concert on the CD "All Night", previously dated "Vegas 02/21/70 M/S", is taking a further step back, and is now dated only as "date unknown". New sleeves for "Pittsburgh 06/25/73". |
December

Finally, I pulled myself together and bought the DVD "Adrenaline '71", and like the title says...it gives you quite a rush! |

I have added "Vegas 03/27/75 D/S" to the unpublished section - it sounds a bit better than "ETCY vol. 35". |

I've worked quite a bit on a 2nd source to "Vegas 12/10/76 M/S" - the sound is not as good as the 1st source, but has the solos a bit more complete. |

I received four new bootlegs today: "A Legendary Performer vol. 7" (Madison CWP 11), "Las Vegas Moonlight" (MEMORY 2048-2), "Spring Fever" (Unicorn Rec. 2101-2) and "Springtime in Nevada", which is really 03/25/75 D/S, (MEMORY 2049-2). On the unpublished side, I have added a more complete source to "Huntsville 05/31/75 E/S" (and I made new sleeves while I was at it). I worked a little on the sound of "Lake Tahoe 07/31/71 D/S"...man, this concert blows me right away! |

Some interesting additions and upgrades among the unpublisheds: "Johnson City 03/17/76" (with Burning Love), "Alexandria 03/30/77", "Cleveland 07/18/75", "Norfolk 07/20/75 E/S" (new 1st source that's a bit more complete), "Des Moines 06/20/74" (new 1st source, which is slightly more complete and not quiet as horrible soundwise) and "Vegas 12/09/76 9PM" (pretty much the same as older sources). I have changed the date for "Lake Tahoe 07/31/71 M/S to the more likely D/S, the same day. I have made new sleeves for ETCY vol. 71, with the date "Vegas 01/28/73 M/S", which is probably correct. Finally, I have made new sleeves for "Detroit 04/22/77" and "Vegas 12/10/76 M/S". |

Tiny, tiny update: I have added 24 min. of the Pre-programme to "Vegas 12/06/76", so it's now a 2 CD-set. And, I've made new sleeves for "Oakland 11/10/70". Finally, I now have the new release "There Goes My Everything" (no label). |

New today: "Omaha 06/19/77" - terrible sound, but this is the best I've found after years of looking. Lots of new boots: "A Legendary Performer vol. 6" (Madison), "Back on the Mainland" (Memories of Elvis", "Rockin' Chicago volumes 1 & 2" (Tennessee Moon), "The King of Western Bop" (CR REV 98), "Not Too Sweet" (SR Records) and finally the promo "The Presleys" (EFE vol. 6). |
