Nein,sein Bruder.

[marquardt72]

Was für ein unvorteilhaftes Cover...

[walk-a-mile-in-my-shoes]

da geb ich dir absolut recht, aber zugleich hoffe ich, dass das noch nicht der weisheit letzer schluss ist und die daran noch ein bisserl "modifizieren" ...

[Johnny B.]

Ich bezweifle stark dass sich das noch was ändert, das dürfte schon zu spät sein. Ich finds auch nicht so schlimm, und in natura siehts es um einiges besser aus
Ausserdem interessiert mich mehr das was ich auf der CD höre

[Ciscoking]

Die Show ist nicht schlecht, Elvis ist bemüht....ist schon o.k....im Vergleich zu den Konzis im folgenden Sommer ist dieses sogar gut..!..
Insofern stimmt die Auswahl..

[Herbi]

..ich freue mich sehr auf diese 76er show !!

[gast-20100801]

Die Tour war sicherlich besser, als die nächsten paar folgenden Konzertreisen. Nach der Bandvorstellung macht Elvis noch mal richtig Programm und singt nicht nur Hurt und Hound Dog (oder wenns hoch kommt auch noch FUNNY HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY).

Weiß den schon einer von Euch, wie es um die Tonqualität bestellt ist?

[Ciscoking]

Ich hab die Show auf meiner site online...der Klang dürfte noch besser sein.....hör rein..!!

New release from Memory Records:

As recorded live in Long Beach, CA, Long Beach Arena, April 25th, 1976 Evening show. The forthcoming "Memory Records" label CD release is entitled "CALIFORNIA WAVE". In 1976, Elvis played in more cities than before. Despite of his physical and mental decline, he tried to please his loyal fans and his Springtime concerts were fairly decent for the most part, especially when compared to his lacklustre performances later that summer.

This CD features the previously unreleased Long Beach, CA, Evening show from April 25th, 1976. It's a very fresh set with very good performances of "Tryin' To Get To You", "My Way", "Hurt", "Burning Love" and "It's Now Or Never", to name but a few of highlights.

All accompanying photographs were taken at the Long Beach, April 25th, 1976 Evening show. As a bonus, five tracks from Johnson City, March 19th, 1976 were added to paint a more complete picture of this period. This previously unreleased recording was taken from an early generation 70s copy of the original audience-recorded master tape. All tracks were digitally restored for optimal listening pleasure. Bonus tracks are coming from very good sounding stereo audience recording.


Denise Kusel from Long Beach Press Telegram wrote: "The voice that came from the depths of his barrel chest was deep and rich. His renditions of gospel songs "How Great Thou Art" and "This Time You Gave Me a Mountain" were offered with sincere beauty. An eerie silence filled the concert hall when he sang "And now the end is near" - the opening line to the Frank Sinatra favorite, "My Way". It was like witnessing a chilling prophecy. Almost 28,000 fans in two concerts, marking his only Southern California appearances, loved him. So did I."

Tracklist: 1. Also Sprach Zarathustra - 2. C.C. Rider - 3. I Got A Woman/Amen(medley) - 4. Love Me - 5. If You Love Me (Let Me Know) - 6. You Gave Me A Mountain - 7. All Shook Up - 8.

Was ist denn an deinem Posting anders als am Eingangsposting von burroughs?

Es ist nicht alles besser, nur weil es nochmal wiederholt wird.
