Del Webb Presents Elvis Presley - Gatefold 2-LP Set Blue Vinyl Milbranch Music Label

The Milbranch Music Label brings us another gem on vinyl: "Del Webb Presents Elvis Presley" It is a Gatefold sleeve 2-LP set with beautifully printed inner sleeves and extensive liner notes, featuring the legendary dinner show of May 23, 1974 at the Sahara Tahoe Hotel, Nevada. Direct from the original Scotch cassette, which was used for the very first release of this show in 1998 on the Fort Baxters CD "And The King For Dessert". Fully remastered for the first time in stunning Digitally Extracted Stereo (DES), means that this is no fake stereo. It is a meticulously restored, channel-by-channel remix that improves the clarity, depth and energy, while staying true to the original sound. You can really hear the difference.

As all die-hards know, Soundboard recordings were never meant to be released. But thanks to today's technology, these recordings can be used in a huge way.

The show is something special. More intimate than Elvis’s Vegas performances, it reveals a different side to the King. Elvis focuses on his singing. He has a powerful voice and delivers heartfelt renditions of songs like “Trying to Get to You” and “Help Me” with a depth and sincerity that shines through in this beautifully restored mix. Unlike the more explosive Midnight Shows, this show is intimate, vocally focused and emotionally rich. The pace is smooth, the mood is reflective and moments like “An American Trilogy” strike with quiet power. It’s Elvis the artist – not just the showman – and that makes this performance all the more compelling. Two rare bonus tracks from May 19, 1974 round out the set. Songs that weren’t on the standard playlist, and weren’t a regular fixture, make this release even more special.
