Sorry if this has been posted before, but according to Elvis World Japan the next FTDs are "Elvis In Person," which we knew, and "I'll Remember You," a two disc soundboard. This information is also on Amazon Japan. The release date is listed as December 8, 2008.

Are these 1973 shows?

[Little Darlin]

Jolly Good News. Thanks!

[Burning Love]

If we have the title for the Vegas disc does that mean the tracklisting for both discs are not that far off? Hopefully by next week.

A great way to finish 2008 off. "Elvis In Person" has a lot of potential and it is true, another double live CD in "I'll Remeber You" will be welcomed.

fantastic we get 2 full disc of Elvis in Feb 1973!! that should satisfy my Feb 1973 soundboard needs for quite a while i really (hope) we get the closing show and an earlier Feb show!??

[Rich_TCB]

Another 2 disc soundboard package? How cool is that?

It will be interesting to see the tracklistings. Looking forward to it.

It will definitely be good to have something from Feb 1973.

I wonder if they'll provide any material from the opening show of the engagement? This has always been a fav of mine, mainly because it's very similar to the Aloha show except he also included Sweet Caroline and Lawdy Miss Clawdy.

[YDKM]

well said big boss man and agree- PLENTY of soundboard material recorded and a very long 'awaited' release from FTD

Isn't there a show from this engagement when Elvis left the stage after losing voice and Stamps sang several numbers?? Elvis then came back, announced his voice was gone and did Can't Help Falling In Love. However, after this he decided to continue the show and sang couple of rarities including "Faded Love" and "Polk Salad Annie" (not done often in 1973).

That might be an interesting show from a historical point of view, although it would of course have Elvis in somewhat weak voice and they probably cannot release the Stamps tracks anyway. We shall see.

Yes, it was the 15th February DS.

Faded Love was performed for the first time live by Elvis at this show.
I’m so Lonesome I could cry was performed for the final time live by Elvis at this show.
Elvis left the stage after performing Fever and J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet perform until Elvis returns to perform the closings song but half way thru he changes his mind about closing the show and performs the rest of the show.
Elvis wore the Orange Starburst Jumpsuit for the first time on stage at this show.

I don't think FTD will release this show as there is songs sung by the backing singers and when they performed in other shows released by FTD (Big Boss Man, Dinner At Eight) they edit them out and they can't edit out the ones from this show as it makes the show completely fake and about 45 minutes long.

**The ONLY live version in 1973
**The first live version of the song



Does anyone know what shows it could be?? I think maybe one of the shows that was out on import and an unreleased show like the Nevada Nights CD was.

[Johanesson]

Great news!
It seems they have learned how to boost sales. A single CD wouldn't be a success,you know,these concerts were somewhat boring and also quite short. But 2 concerts for $30 is a very generous offer. Let's hope that both concerts are unreleased.
However,it's about time to give us some details (concert-dates and track-list).

How does that make the show completely fake? Fade out after Elvis introduced the Stamps, fade back in as he returns... It would make an interesting show, even at 45 minutes, and the rest of the CD can fill up with a 'best of other shows' compilation. Especially if the other disc is a full show (which would be less than an hour anyway).

That's my favorite show from that season. Of course an edited version would be a fake.

'Cos if people get the show and think "hey, Elvis didn't sound very good here and why was the show only 40 minutes long" and then they hear someone say "the show was really 65 minutes long but The Stamps etc were cut out and Elvis didn't really do an encore he just sung Can't Help Falling In Love and then decided the fans needed more from the show".

Its the same with the Back With A Bang! show, it makes a fake show adding the beginning of another show and then putting Roses Are Red at the end of a concert, they could have put the beginning from the actual show from the Audience recording.

These aren't "fake" shows - they aren't complete shows when portions are edited out or don't exist. Aside from royalty issues that Ernst has to consider, who really wants to listen to a drawn-out Stamps segment when that same available space can be used for additional Elvis performances?

[Johanesson]

The problem is that this show would not be that interesting without the Stamp seguement. It would be a pathethic thing to edit out the most interesting and unusual part of the show.
It's like the "Fight Night"/"Kicking and Rolling" concert wtihout the attack.

Not me. I'm passing on this one.

Holding off with FTD purchases until the classic album series reissue of Elvis In Concert is released?

[Rob]

No, I just wanted to see what it was like to say that I was going to pass. I've had the shakes ever since I typed those words.

[Rich_TCB]

Not me. I'm passing on this one.

Yeah . . . . . right.

And I voted for John McCain.

That would be holding off until the twelfth of never...

[YDKM]

Don't get excited. Elvis unlimited emailed me this morning and said Ernst says this release with be a ONE CD release NOT two.
