SUMMER FESTIVAL 1970 – THE REHEARSALS

La Memphis Recording Service ha fatto sapere nei giorni scorsi che stava lavorando ad un nuovo set di 3 cd con un libro dedicato alle prove per il “Summer Festival” del 1970.

Ora è ufficiale: il 12 marzo 2021 uscirà “Summer Festival 1970 – The Rehearsals”. 

I 3 cd contengono i momenti salienti delle prove di uno dei periodi più memorabili della carriera di Elvis. Queste registrazioni veramente storiche, rimasterizzate e restaurate catturano lo sviluppo grezzo e iniziale delle canzoni che furono eseguite settimane dopo a Las Vegas. L’opuscolo di 40 pagine allegato include rare fotografie scattate in alcune di queste sessioni di prova.

La versione di 3 LP Gatefold da 180g sarà annunciata presto.
