'Elvis In Concert' 1977 TV special; Should it be released officially?

So..is the first part of the show all scenes from Omaha? I'm assuming that's where "Are You Lonesome Tonight" is coming from..........

No, Lonesome comes from Rapid City. Much of the show comes from here.

Absolutley it should be released officially. EPE, stop trying to act like Elvis was died after January 14th 1973 because he didn't.

It seems Piers already has a thread asking about putting this concert out .
I think I agreed with jak on this one.

To Quote :

I dont think there is any reason not to release it.I have Love Coming Down and some others but I would like a quality dvd release.To ignore it is like pulling the covers over your head and pretending it never happened.No matter what condition he was in he gave some great performances during the filming.I really dont think it could harm his image because I dont think anybody cares but the fans.The media isnt going to make a big deal about it.The special being released isnt a newsworthy story.Elvis is still relevant to his fans but he's been gone for so long that he is not in the public's mind.Releasing it would not create a media fenzy and wouldnt even make a blip on the radar.The general public couldnt care less.Elvis legacy has withstood the test of time and countless attempts to discredit him.The cbs special would not tarnish it.

This is a few reasons why I think the CBS concert should be released .
It can't harm Elvis in any way, IMO.

Many things were said about Elvis; his music and his appearance since the beginning. It hurt his feelings, but it never stopped him or his fans.
