Notes:

Because RCA chose not to record the actual opening show (31 July 1969) , this release will stand out as the earliest show fans will have of Elvis' return to live shows !

This one is a classic in the history of bootleg CD`s. A complete concert from 1969 almost from the beginning of Elvis` live comeback. Actually it is not Opening Night but August 3, 1969 DS.

This show was re-released as "Elvis Meets The Beatles" and "Elvis Live Unlicensed"

Sound Sample:

Concert:

This doesn`t matter as the show itself is a classic 69 performance, with no weak spot. Just lean back and enjoy a truely magnificent show in decent SB quality !
The monologue runs for 4:40 , Elvis describes his desire to return to live shows. Suspicious Minds runs almost 8 minutes !
