The 1971 Soundboard Collection & More Vol 1, 4LP + 3CD set; available in Red or Blue vinyl. Strictly limited edition.
This comprehensive deluxe set contains 4 soundboard recordings recorded during Elvis his first Vegas season of 1971. The first Vegas season of 1971 started on January 26 and finished February 23. During these shows Elvis sang some of the tracks from the just released “Elvis Country” album. Examples are “Make The World Go Away” ”There Goes My Everything” and “Snowbird”.
Another example of one of the highlights is the only known live version of the (back in the day) new song ”only believe” . A studio version would be released in June 1971 on the “Love Letters From Elvis” album, but the song was recorded a year earlier. All shows are remastered and presented in mono just as they were recorded. The fully packed bonus disc included in this set contains no less than 23 rare and official unreleased versions of studio tracks recorded in 1971. Sit back and enjoy Elvis in 1971.
