The cover: Elvis standing like this is not from on stage but in his garderobe. Fake ! Concert: a good one, but how often do we need this concert ? It is better to release the other September 1970 concert if he got it, we only get two or three songs on the last years release. So, if you got it, give it to us straight !

An excellent show with many first performances. A definite if you don’t already have this concert. Why hasn’t FTD released this full concert?

Wrong date?

Wrong date !? No, the concert is from the 26th of January 1972 and 51 years and one day later we get this release from mrs. So, ...

Wildfishie : announcement txt of the CD has to be read as follows : MRS will release the CD on january 27 (2023). Agreed that the announcement text was confusing. Would have been better (IMHO) as follows : " On January 2023 MRS will release the CD “Las Vegas Hilton Presents: Elvis Opening Night 1972”, 50 years and one day after the concert date 26 september 1972".

"On 27th January 2023, MRS will release the CD 'Las Vegas Hilton Presents: Elvis Opening Night 1972', 51 years and one day after the concert date 26 January* 1972"? (*January rather than September?)

Just one last question: they're claiming "for the first time true stereo". Is it real stereo from source or their "processed faked true stereo" like they did to some of their previous releases?

Keith Flynn's site states : January 26 September 1972 (Wednesday Opening-Show) There is no trace of a show at the Hilton Las vegas on the 26th of September 1972.

Wildfishie : according to one of my sources , quote :"the soundboardrecording has been remastered and for the first time presented in true stereo". unquote : personally I don't take it for granted it'll be true stereo, I have my doubts but..... I could be wrong ( hopefully !).

Correction, due to typo : should be "Keith Flynn's site states : January 26 1972 (Wednesday Opening-Show)" So: confirmation , no Hilton concert on 26 september 1972

Is this the first time that ALSO SPRACH ZARATHUSTRA and SEE SEE RIDER have been made available in full from this concert?
