Ciscoking,

Are there any celebrity introductions in any of these three concerts?

Looks like many dealers now have this and Blue Hawaii standalone cd box in stock.

I've received emails yesterday from Shop Graceland that the Stateline Sahara and the Blue Hawaii Sessions FTD releases have shipped. The only one that has not shipped is the gold sparkle vinyl of Moody Blue.

They are out in europe and many fans have gotten the cd releases during the last week.
As always europe is first then the US.

That’s not unreasonable as they are made there & FTD is a Danish label.
Darn that secondary market, but where would we be without them?

With a quick check, it looks like we had 3 tracks previously released [officially] from 19th May, & 2 tracks from 25th May, 1974, on the 2010 CD High Sierra [FTD 89] but none from 20th May.

Yes and some dialogue on this new release was first released on the HFWEOS boxar LP in 1974.

Both received the 2 cd sets ( Blue Hawaii Sessions & Stateline Sahara 1974) last Tuesday. The Lake Tahoe gigs are identical, sound wise, to the previous 6 soundboard outings, be it un- and officially.

Just received this release in the mail. Looking forward to listening to these three shows. Elvis' shows in Lake Tahoe always seemed to be a step above the shows from Vegas. Appreciate FTD offering us this release.

It's a very good one! Enjoy!

Finally got around to playing this yesterday. Really enjoyed it, all three shows are decent, Elvis seems in fine form. Another winner from FTD.
