I got this cd a few days ago...if you heard the cajun tornado by the same label...you will be in for a real surprise! soundwise that is...The sound on this release is really fantastic, very clear and you really can hear thatthis is a 1st generation soundboard. The quality is at the same level (maybe even better)as the dixieland rocks cd from FTD, wich has in my opnion the best sound from all the soundboard releases by FTD. The show is also a very good and relaxed one, with Elvis in good spirits...what can we ask more? a remastered version of this concert done at the sony studios? done by kevan budd...

This surely is a great show. Elvis is in a good mood, jokes around and he sings the songs very well. Especially "If You Love Me (Let Me Know)" was sung well and "Hurt" (both versions) are simply phantastic. The artwork of the cd is very good, too and the same goes for the sound quality.
