Out of the blue the fans were staggered with...

You Can Have Her (L.A., May 11, 1974 AS)

Back in Asheville we are...

Return To Sender (Asheville, July 24, 1975 ES)

Return To Sender (Asheville, July 24, 1975 ES)

I think he did "Return to Sender" much better on August 1, 1976 and trust me, as horrible that Hampton Roads show was - he actually shoots off a great version of Return to Sender.

You are right,..it was not bad..(I don`t dare saying "good"..lol..)

The live arrangement was rather good and showed that more Elvis cassics worked on stage than he himself apparently thought. That band could almost play anything and make it sound good. Elvis could sing anything and make it sound good, also. Sadly, he chose not to include many of his bonafide pop and rock classics from the 60s on stage, for reasons of laziness, lack of confidence in those songs or bad judgement, I don't know. That said, Elvis sounds absolutely horrible during this '76 show, though he isn't out of it mentally. He sounds totally s-i-c-k. I much prefer the Asheville '75 version.

Hampton was horrible?

Yes, Hampton '76 was. Among the worst I've ever heard him voice-wise.

Hampton was horrible?

Another one from 1975....anybody has the date handy..?

He accentuates the same word "gay-o ?" as during the May 4 evening show, both of them are about 35-40 seconds long.

The source of which you are speaking is a SB (there`s no AR of this show)....we have an AR....

It`s the AR of Lake Charles, May 4, 1975 AS..thanks Patrik..!

I know.. I just noticed they're both about the same length and with the same pronounciation of the word "gay-o". Makes sense, since this AR version was recorded earlier in the same day.
