Elvis Live in Las Vegas is a new four-CD set from Sony, scheduled for release in September.

The deluxe set is a ‘comprehensive collection’ of Elvis’ Vegas appearances with 89 recordings across an almost 20-year period (1956-1975).

This is a repackage of the 2003 box in a compact hardcover book format and comes with a detailed 32 page booklet with rare photos etc. Best of all it’s excellent value at just £12.99 on Amazon UK at the time of writing.

Disc 4 is sub bootleg quality and disc 3 is the ‘best’ of RCA/BMG/Sony’s previous Vegas Elvis material. Disc 2 is a brilliant 70s concert (which is probably on the That’s The Way It Is box) and disc 1 an okay 69 concert. Still worth buying.

Hello Jacques,

Thanks for your reply and I’m looking forward to adding this set to my collection. I’ve been tempted to order some of the Fan Club releases including vinyl however have been concerned about mostly sound quality. I’ve been very tempted to order the blue vinyl reissue of “Moody Blue” and will research if this LP is sourced from analog masters or digital sources. I know many Elvis fans aren’t that interested in Elvis during this period however hearing this album when I was 8 and it was first released left a positive impression. I saw Elvis perform at The Mosque

I preordered this set and Jacques since you have the original issue can you please comment on the overall sound quality? Paul thanks for checking if this reissue is a updated remaster.

Hello LedMan,
For me the sound is excellent. These cd’s have been produced by Ernst Mikael Jorgensen and Roger Simon. These two men are behind the “Follow that Dream” label. This label is exclusively dedicated to the Elvis Presley catalog. They have, to this day, remastered all the Elvis catalogue.

If you look on ElvisNews.com, it is said that Sony will re-issue the 2001-set Live in Las Vegas. So it won’t probably be remaster. But because of the two men behind this set, the sound should still be excellent.

Hello Paul,
This is the same set as the one that has been issued in 2001. I have it. The design of the cd’s is the same as the 2001 issue. My copy is also a hardcover book format. The only difference could be in the remastering.

Ah yes, thanks. This is probably just a repackage at a new price point, possibly remastered (will check).
