Note | Down At The End Of Paradise Road : the previously-unreleased audience recording from Thursday, August 30, 1973 Midnight Show at the Hilton Hotel, Las Vegas, NV will be released by the Straight Arrow label.
Most of Elvis' August-September 1973 shows were solid (especially when compared with February 1973) and this night is no exception. The show is somewhat unusual. Usually, every time daughter Lisa Marie was in attendance, Elvis would drop the emotional ballad 'My Boy' from the set list, and replace it with 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'. In this show, however, both songs are performed. This live recording is taken from the flip side of an original 120-minute cassette tape. The A-side, containing the dinner show that same evening, was released by STRAIGHT ARROW in 2010 as 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'. The sound quality here is very good, considering it was taped from the audience. All photographs are from the August-September 1973 Hilton engagement, and the liner notes are writt |
