The new release from
the Madison label is "Closing Night - February
1970". For the first time ever, this show will
be available from start to finish, with the
best-ever audio source, direct, reel-to-reel
transfers to DAT. The sound quality is
excellent, given the limitations of early '70s
soundboard recordings, and definitely superior
to all previous, incomplete releases of this
concert.
The 16-page booklet contains relevant notes,
while the cover art of "Closing Night - February
1970" is a beautiful homage to Presley's 1970
RCA LP "On Stage - February 1970". Several bonus
tracks are included, though previously released,
as they are the perfect compliment to this
project.
