The 1971 Soundboard Collection & More - Volume 2 (3LP + 3CD Set)

 The 1971 Soundboard Collection & More - Volume 2 (3LP + 3CD Set) 

This comprehensive deluxe set contains three fantastic sounding soundboard  recordings. Two were recorded during his first Vegas season in 1971 & one was recorded during his one and only live performance in Boston, Massachusetts. After finishing the closing show at the International Hotel (featured on this set) Elvis had a three week break until his first recording session of the year. This one day recording session in March 1971  resulted in one track being released on the Grammy-winning album “He Touched Me” and some cuts being released in 1972 on the “Elvis Now” and “Elvis” (Fool) album. The real studio work began in May & June of 1971. Following these recording sessions Elvis went back on tour again in July 1971. Sadly, no soundboard recordings of these shows have surfaced to date. The Boston recording is the very first high-quality recording of a tour show. With a capacity of just over 15,000 Elvis had to play 7 shows in Las Vegas to reach the same amount of visitors. Obviously a show this big creates a complete different ambiance. 

This limited edition boxset is now available in a red and blue vinyl edition. 

Included are : 3 vinyl records - 3 compact discs - a fold out poster -  bonus photo
