New FTD release in September of Richmond '74!!

[vivaelvis]

This is fascinating news!! The Richmond concert is superb! Glad to finally see Mr Jorgensen wake up and release the stellar shows opposed to those really weak shows from '76 and '77. Maybe the criticism has become too much to bare. Meanwhile, back to the FTD release of the Richmond show. This will be the first FTD release that I will be purchasing in almost 3 years! I'll get it cheaper at Graceland when I go back in October.

This is GREAT news, but where did you hear it? I haven't seen it anywhere else yet...

It was posted on the forum Too Much Monkey Business. Unfortunately no link was provided but looks official.

Cool...let's hope the information is legitimate!!!

If the Richmond show is indeed the '74 show being included in the FASHION FOR A KING FTD book/CD set, then I wonder what show they will use as the '75 show being included with the set?? We could only hope it will be something from the July '75 tour, like Uniondale or Asheville!!!

2) I Got A Woman / Amen

3) Love Me

4) Trying To Get To You

5) All Shook Up

6) Love Me Tender

8) Fever

9) Polk Salad Annie

10) Why Me Lord

11) Suspicious Minds

12) Introductions

13) I Can’t Stop Loving You

It would be a great re-release and a fantastic opportunity for the Elvis fans to buy this show. Let's hope it's also worthwhile to buy this FTD release when you already own the Guaranteed To Blow Your Mind cd.

Yes, that's the same show!!

That Omaha show is definitely a good one, and it will be GREAT to have it in soundboard quality!!

I am really looking forward to all the new ftds!!!

[vivaelvis]

The He Touched Me FTD release will also be worth getting as there's been very little outtakes from that session. I've Got Confidence, Seeing Is Believing and I John are my favorites on that album.

Yes it is and I forgot to post it yesterday. Elvis was in good spirits during this engagement. Not crazy about the Vegas years post '72 but this might be worth getting. Just hope the sound quality is up to par or it'll be a major letdown.
