Wrongly listed as Afternoon Show
The sound isn't bad, but Elvis' voice is too far in the background...sometimes barely audible.

Announcement:
The San Diego, April 24th, 1976 afternoon show is previously unreleased and moreover, it is completely a new show for Elvis fans – never before in circulation, in any form!

Elvis April ’76 tour was rated as very good one, with longer shows and variable set list. Unlike later that year, when Elvis ended his concerts quickly after introductions of his band, here he gave no less than 9 songs after „School Day“ orchestra solo!

Elvis’ drummer Ronnie Tutt was back in band and pianist Shane Keister was replaced by Tony Brown.

Among the concert highlights there are „Tryin' To Get To You”, „America (The Beautiful)”, „Hurt”, „Burning Love” and „How Great Thou Art”. One song stands out: rare, heartfelt performance of complete version of „The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”. This song was performed only 3 known times, in 1976.

This concert is taken from a recently found first generation copy of an original audience recorded cassette tape. You may ask your supplier for samples.

This CD is packaged in a nicely designed digipak with great collection of quality images taken in San Diego, CA, April 24, 1976.

If you have enjoyed our other April ’76 tour release called „The Beat Is Back“, then you are sure to enjoy our latest release, too.

Concert: One of the good tours from 1976 and so is the concert.
We have a great and interesting song line-up and Elvis and his band deliver the goods in a fine mood. Pure stage entertainment. The crowd was pleased and so will be you.
Highlights: Tryin' To Get To You, America, Polk Salad Annie, Hurt, Burning Love or The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face. In addition we have a show never released before in any form. Nothing more to say. (Ciscoking)
