CD Reviews

A First Class FTD Presentation Of A Great Live Stand
Todd Baptista | Westport, MA USA | 06/10/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This double CD, Follow That Dream Records' June, 2009 release, chronicles Elvis' May 30-June 1, 1975 stand in Huntsville, AL where the King gave five sold-out performances. The bulk of these discs are comprised of the 5/31 matinee and the 6/1 evening show plus six bonus tracks from two other shows that were not performed at the two main concerts. The soundboard recordings begin with the third song of the evening, "Love Me", as Elvis' engineers rarely recorded the nightly openers, "See See Rider" and "I Got A Woman"/"Amen" (although the latter is included as a bonus track on the second disc).

Elvis' energy level is high and his voice is strong throughout, with the 5/31 matinee being an exceptional aural treat. "The Wonder Of You", "Burning Love", a brief rendition of "Trouble", "Hawaiian Wedding Song", and an impromptu version of "For The Good Times" are among the highlights. Elvis juggles the set a bit the following night, with four changes, the most interesting being a blistering "Polk Salad Annie" which takes the place of an aborted "Burning Love" when he has trouble remembering the words. A sweet "I'll Remember You", and, from the bonus tracks, powerful versions of "I'm Leavin'" and "How Great Thou Art" and a spur-of-the-moment "Release Me", coupled with the interplay between Elvis and the crowd demonstrate that both the artist and his audience were having fun. The gatefold packaging, with many previously unseen high-quality photos from the stand and a well-edited, crisp-sounding mix make this a true first class presentation. If you're an Elvis concert collector, this set is as good as it gets."
