Original 1972 Release Reissued on 180g 2LP from Sony Legacy
Of all the live concert recordings released during Elvis Presley's lifetime, none carried the historical significance of his long-awaited New York City shows at Madison Square Garden in June of 1972. His first performances in the Big Apple since the '50s, the 'King of Rock 'n' Roll' performed four sold-out shows at the famed venue, the weekend of Friday through Sunday, June 9-11, 1972 and sold in excess of 80,000 tickets in the process.
This 180g 2LP reissue from Sony Legacy is culled from Elvis' legendary performance at the Saturday evening show, originally issued on a single LP by RCA Records on June 18, 1972, just eight days after the concert took place. The album was certified Gold less than two months later.
Featuring defintive live takes of such all-time classics as: "Proud Mary," "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin," "Polk Salad Annie," "All Shook Up," "Heartbreak Hotel," medley of "(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear/Don't Be Cruel," "Love Me Tender," "Hound Dog," "Suspicious Minds" and many more!
