Note: I would like to say this is a very nice cd. Most of the tracks are unreleased, or parts of it are unreleased. It features the (almost complete) and unedited August 7, 1970 stage rehearsal, which is worthwhile on this release because it gives us all the dialogue and edited parts of some of the tracks. "Mary In The Morning" is a nice surprise (with more dialogue and laughter and even some fun "extra" verses).
"Polk Salad Annie" has Elvis just before the intro singing: "Got A Little Morphine and Got A Little Hish-Hash".

This release came as a nice surprice.
