No there has not been an official "On Tour Special Edition" only bootleg versions f the 4 or so hours that has escaped to-date
Rick was saying that there was an excess of well over 50 hours of On Tour footage cataloged

50 hours? That would never see the light of day.

A lot of the '50 hours' would be simply different camera angles of the same song.

When edited together into a watchable form, it would be a fraction of that.

Bring it on, I say !

yes but as Rick said he could easily make 4 90 minute Elvis On Tour Movies, and there is a lot of multiple angles fan footage, but also a fair bit of candid Elvis too, we only have a few little clips so far, i.e the tie footage in Vegas, back stage, in transit in cars and on planes.
the four or so hours of out-takes that have been released through the bootleggers is not even scraping the surface, of whats there..
but it is unlikely to be seen by fans unless someone leaks it...
Like the few hours of Change of Habit out takes and so on ..

many years ago, when i obtained the 24 hours of ttwii footage before it was flooded on the market i paid around 6000 euros for it if my bank account remembers.. and was promised on tour out-takes (which hadn't been available anywhere by that time, and the person who offered it said he was awaiting the on tour about 2 hours at that time and a sample of Change of Habit, plus a couple other movies, but can't remember which ones off hand.

but not too long after i got the the ttwii the guy also punted it to a few others and of course the rest is history. this too is one reason we only have 4 or so hours of on tour out-takes, instead of 30 or 40 hours..

no just told about it he said thee was around 2 hours, but i think he pissed off his source by punting the other footage to so many people.. and with what happened to the ttwii footage it is little wonder..
maybe one day sooner rather than later, we may get some, although i have seen the On Tour interview in colour, but only on a tv via skype and its not hacked to bits like the bw version we have..

Regarding pleasing fans I think that this was purely about business they would have including some of this footage but simply were unable to.

Same for any EOT or The complete August 7th 1970 rehearsal these are in the vaults of the film companies and EPE should really aquire these film reels.

Then those EPE Archives would be the real deal.

Also I am told that there is a lot of footage from 1977 that remains unseen.

Lastly im starting to thi k now that Zimmy never had access to anything other than the EPE Archi es.

So as good as this HBO special is it could never be as great as it could be.

Lets Talk about the pool interview done in 1977 with Elvis?

It's been so rarely talked about. On any forum.
I would love to hear more speculation about it.
Fans rarely talk about it. They really do
That's a holy grail too.....like the other unreleased 1977 material where he gave it all to the fans and used his operatic voice.
That is something which gets , in my opinion, too rarely talked about.
I am serious.

I don't usually use these, but this is an exception:
