Concert: The dinner show is an average show with no surprises.
The 3 am show debuts on silver disc here. I would rate this one as the better show out of the two. Elvis is in a good mood and we get strong renditions of songs like Steamroller Blues, Release Me, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face or How Great Thou Art. He was also having much fun on stage. The audience surely had one happy hour to enjoy !
