Nachdems ja hier zu dem Thema inzwischen 3 verschiedene Threads 
gibt, mal kurz ne Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Punkte:
The Madison label will soon release a double CD set titled
"The Elvis Presley Show - Holding Down The Fort, "
featuring the much-heralded Fort
Worth, Texas concert from June 3, 1976.
About five years ago Madison issued portions of this show, unfortunately
far from complete and in lesser sound quality.
However, this 2006 collection will be taken from a first generation soundboard
recording in excellent sound quality.
The recording is not without any flaws as there are quite a few feedbacks
during ''C.C.Rider'', a tape stretch at the end of side A damaged "Jailhouse Rock" and the recording of "Hound Dog" was stopped early on.
These have been replaced by the same tunes done just one month later in the same building. However, the incomplete June performances are included as a bonus for the "soundboard collector" in all of us.
And the packaging will include a 16 page, illustrated booklet with relevant text. But there's more!
For the first time, this " 30th Anniversary Edition " will feature all the
music from the "pre-show" with Joe Guercio and the Hot Hilton Horns,
J.D.Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, and The Sweet Inspirations.
All these performances will be as presented that night in Fort Worth.
Highlights from the first CD include "When The Saints Go Marching In" and "You'll Never Walk Alone" from the Stamps, and the Sweet Inspirations energetic vocals on "Philadelphia Freedom," "Lady Marmalade" and a medley of Stevie Wonder hits.
The stand up comedian Jackie Kahane's set was not recorded and will not appear on this release.
Elvis' concert itself will feature all the tracks previously released on Madison's
"Cajun Tornado", but this time in much better sound quality and in unbroken running order.
Some of the previously unreleased performances will include "If You Love
Me (Let Me Know)", "Heartbreak Hotel", "Help Me" and many more.
Don't miss the dynamic 1976 return of The Elvis Presley Show to Cowtown!!!
