Content[edit]
Despite the lengthy track listing, the release was only a single disc, and the record was released only a week after the concert itself. Elvis' very next album would also be a live recording featuring many of the same songs: Aloha from Hawaii: Via Satellite.
The concert included on this album was the evening show. An afternoon performance was also recorded, but except for a performance of "I Can't Stop Loving You" which appeared in the 1977 compilation, Welcome to My World, it remained unreleased until the 1990s when it was issued as An Afternoon in the Garden.
Drummer Ronnie Tutt claimed in an interview in 2009 for the BBC documentary Elvis in Vegas that Colonel Tom Parker sped up the mixes so that more tracks could be on the album, increasing his publishing royalties. Tutt's account has never been proven as factual.[7]
Reissues[edit]
On November 13, 2012, RCA/Legacy re-released the live concert album on two vinyl discs in the same format as Aloha From Hawaii: Via Satellite and Elvis In Concert live concert albums. In 2013, RCA/Legacy, through HDTracks.com, released a high-resolution remastering of the concert in 24-bit/96 kHz.
