Memory records released two concerts at once(the other being "Burst of fire").
And altough this 1976 show has turned up in the cdr world before, it certainly has it charms on this silver disc.
It's an audience recording, a bit muffled, but above average.
In fact, i enjoyed the "being there" feeling a lot.
The show itself is good too, i know EP gets a lot critisism about his summer 76 performances.
But let me tell you this, in very show there are highlights.
Also in this one.

The artwork is very well done(classy designer, a keeper ) with pics from the actual date.
That ads to the whole concept.

Recomendable for the collector who will want this concert on shinny pressing.
Way to go Memory records, thanks for keep them comming!

Thanks for the info and comments, JohanD. I would like to hear this show as well. I agree with your comments about 76. I saw Elvis a couple of time in June 76 and the shows were good. Much of the criticism about Elvis in 76 comes from those who were not even at the shows. The show by-and-large were quite entertaining.
