This show released by the Straight Arrow label is a higly entertaining show.
Being the summer of 1976 and a matinee performance, Elvis gives a solid performance.
The booklet is as always classy with this label.
The sound is good too, almost at the same level as the "Adios 1977" boot, a real "in the building" feeling.

The version of "Amerca" is so good that even before the song ends Elvis received a standing ovation!!
Goosebumps all over!!

Thank JohanD

If I may be allowed to say, This was not as bad a tour as some would have you believe. I attended two shows on this tour and they were very entertaining. We also have the FTD release from July 3 and some of you have heard other shows from the tour. All in all, the criticsm Elvis has received for this tour are not justified, IMHO.

This tour was indeed not "bad", even in a lesser show their are sparkles of magic; and all are very entertaining performances.
Can you give more details about the dates you saw him?
