First Happy Easter!
Okay I have what might be considered a very lame question my those more educated on this matter. What is the best "live" Elvis recording? I have been an Elvis fan since I was 9 and I am now 34 but I swear I discover new stuff my our man everyday. I have just now been introduced to the FTD series and there is also cool fan concert stuff on youtube. I have recently downloaded early stuff like the complete Louisiana Hayride CD. I just wanted some input from the board on what cool live stuff is out there, the more obscure the better.:P

There is the recent release by MRS Memphis Recording Service) of Elvis' Pearl Harbour Show. It's a good price and come with a 100 page book.

I have always liked the Elvis Live At the International -the first live recording, but there are many live recordings that are very good.

I've always had a soft spot for the Vegas shows, especially the ones recorded for TTWII, An Afternoon in the Garden is amazing too, I actually prefer live recordings to studio releases, but I'm trying to get as many live shows as possible and sad as I may sound, I have a book that I've listed exactly dates and times of certain shows just so I don't duplicate.
