Notes: The first of 2 cd releases that comprise a complete concert rehearsal , most likely taped by MGM for the documentary "That's The Way It Is" and subsequently snuck out of the MGM vaults. This is a fantastic serie , as Elvis was in his personal prime in 1970 and the material reflects his drive and enthusiasm.

Elvis approached this release just like he would a concert event , his voice is a little strained and reserved !

Elvis used the original phrasing during "You've Lost That Loving Feelin" , singing the correct "there's no tenderness in your eyes" line.
