I loved the Alternate Aloha on vinyl because the drums (Ronnie Tutt) come across very clearly and more dominantly. This CD is for those who like similar. This time the drummer is Larry Londin and the "Living Binaural" release (concert previously released by DAE as Holding Back the Years) uses the two track original recording where Londin's work was recorded on a seperate track. If you like the drums, this is a great and powerful release. David Briggs is also more audible and the whole concert has, along with the exaggerated drum effect, a fresh sounding "wah-wah" effect throughout. It thus gives an opportuniy to hear the "usual" concert tracks with a whole new energy. Elvis is in great voice and humour. His voice is so good and "young" sounding I thought it was the wrong CD in the case as it could be from 1971-72: only America the Beautiful and the two complete versions of Hurt convinced me - and these are superb.
A worthwhile acquisition: a good addition for completists, a fine hour's listening if you appreciate the drummer's art (keep your finger paused over the repeat button during PSA!), and a 1976 Elvis to be proud of.
