Going by the letter of the law, copying the content of media for your own personal use without purchasing it first is illegal. But, you know that. If you disagree, fine, but "law" is "law". I myself have downloaded/copied bootleg material, but nothing from the FTD label.
Well surely purchasing such 'bootleg' material is illegal too? The law is a very 'iffy' matter here, and people shouldn't be judged on such matters.

What about my own Elvis' CD's, is that illegal? It's not like your stealing anything, your just using material you/somebody has purchased and is letting you use for your own personal use. Look at it this way, my Uncle could lend me the FTD to play on my CD player - legal. Or I listen to it on my iPod - illegal.

What is not to enjoy?

Anyway, the following are some of the songs Elvis rehearsed on July 18, 1969: "Memphis Tennessee," "Green Green Grass Of Home," "I'm Moving On," "Lawdy Miss Clawdy," "Rip It Up," "Trying To Get To You" and "Only The Strong Survive."

It is; I just saw it for the first time. (And somebody here got called "a lady" who was a guy! HERE! In the land of testosterone!)
Anyway, what if it's your dad, not you uncle?Naw, seriously, if I rip my parents' vinyl to the computer, is that wrong? My dad is still alive and well, as I write this, so it doesn't belong to me, technically. I never bought "Freewheelin'" on account of that. They had it - an ancient copy from when it was actually first released. They bought a lot of folkie stuff. It was the only Dylan album they had. The vinyl is real thick. So, anyway, I asked if they'd mind if I kept that one with my records back in the '80s, and they said "sure."
So, did I ALREADY steal "Freewheelin'"? Well, I didn't "steal" it, because I asked for permission, and they gave it to me - or is that stealing, still? (Because they could still listen to it if they had wanted to, any time. And they didn't steal it, 'cause they bought it when I was just toddling around.) Or am I stealing it now, if I rip it, without buying a fresh copy? (I actually have it on the Mono set, which I bought, but that's beside the point.)
Funny, yes, but interesting. (On the other hand, FTDs are kinda special: a collector's label that only exists by virtue of our support. So, that really isn't up for discussion, philosophical or otherwise. I DO think lossless digital versions should be made available for sale - that should be worked out. You could download in lossless formats straight from shopelvis.com, along with digital booklets. Not 24 bit depth or anything; just Apple Lossless, or FLAC, or one of those. There'd be less chance, then, of some cheapskate guy, who most likely CAN afford it, importing a CD that belongs to his uncle!)
Please don't ban my dad, or my uncle! (He listens to Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme, so I think he's safe. I won't be borrowing any of his records.)
rjm (and "if that soundboard ever surfaces," I ALSO promise to buy two or three copies!!! Actually, I HAVE bought more than one copy of a couple FTDs. I misplaced a couple, and I bought 'em again. And bought about three copies, all together, of "Afternoon At The Garden.")

For what it's worth, in May Mann's book she did before Elvis died, she mentioned that during the August 1969 engagement that Elvis performed "You'll Think Of Me."
As for "It's Only Love", in Robert Gordon's book "KIng On The Road" that he did with EPE, he shows the replica of a set list from the November, 1971 tour that lists "It's Only Love."

Could it be that this wasn't a concert setlist but a rehearsal setlist?.
