The �Rainbow Records� label
is going to release it�s
second CD entitled "It�s
Tahoe Time" containing a 50
minutes long performance of
Elvis Presley�s October 13,
1974 Midnight Show at the
Sahara Tahoe Hotel, Lake
Tahoe.
Until today there has never
been a CD release containing
any of the eight
performances of this much
too little known of concert
engagement at Lake Tahoe in
autumn of 1974.
Synopsis:
The recording of this show
has been taken from an early
generation (audience
recorded) Cassette-Tape and
it has been carefully worked
on in a professional studio.
So the Producers are able to
present one of (only two
until today known of)
recorded performances of
Elvis� October 74 concert
series at the Sahara Tahoe
Hotel in good and listenable
sound-quality, rounded off
by a great 16-page booklet
containing all necessary
information regarding the
October 74� engagement at
Lake Tahoe including a
special report by a female
fan who saw all eight shows
(!!), written just a few
days after this engagement
was over. By the way: At
this show Elvis was wearing
his then brand new �Mexican
Sundial�-Suit which he
seemed to lock away after
the short engagement was
over - until 1977. We
believe that this is a very
interesting performance.
Elvis is in good mood and
delivers a mixture of both
his early and his later
classics. Hear Elvis doing
classy versions of songs
like �It�s Midnight�, �Big
Boss Man�, �I�m Leavin�� and
an impromptu version of �Lawdy
Miss Clawdy�.
As a bonus you can hear
James Burton playing his
guitar and giving an
impression of how it sounded
when he was at his very peak
� in 1973. The seven minute
long �Music Makers� �
Special has been taken from
the original �73 Vinyl-Album
�Guitar� � a real rarity and
a nice bonus for a real nice
cd!
