9 CD'S + 120 page hardcover book (Amiga International)
Amiga
International releases a long awaited LIMITED-EDITION boxset featuring 9-CD’s,
all remastered, of all known recordings made for the Golden Globe Award-winning
concert documentary ELVIS ON TOUR. This will include the premiere of the
complete rehearsal recorded in Buffalo, NY on April 5, 1972, with three
previously unreleased performances.
The
13-inch boxset also includes a huge 128-page hardcover book containing detailed
essays of the entire April 1972 tour with RARE AND UNPUBLISHED photographs and
related memorabilia.
When considering the lack of attention paid
to this concert documentary, it seems a shame that so few official releases
have emerged. It is for this reason that AMIGA International presents this
deluxe package to honor the excellent recordings made for the much neglected
"Elvis On Tour" film.
The audio / visual experience is undeniably
the quintessential overview of the making and scrutiny of this extraordinary
glimpse of Elvis as master of his art.
This highly anticipated boxset will be
released on December 28th 2017

Ok, I'm impressed by this massive box, but if you look at the content of the CD's (and when you listen to it) then there's only one conclusion, all the material are copied from other (bootleg) CD's.
Disc 1 is a straight copy of Madison Hillcrest Blues
Disc 2 is a straight copy of Madison Sunset Rundown. On the On Tour release it looks that there are more tracks on the CD, but actually Amiga split the songs The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face and Funny How Time Slips Away in two speparate tracks.
Disc 3 is a straight copy of Madison Rock My Soul.
Disc 5 is from The Hampton Roads Concert by Triangle if you ask me.
Disc 6 is from Red Hot In Richmond from Madison
Disc 7 is from The Greensboro Concert from Triangle
Disc 8 is a straight copy of RCA Close Up disc 4 concert.
So almost every fan has this stuff for years, but it is custom in the "import" world to "borrow" material from other labels.
Keep looking for this one, but it'll cost you about € 160,00 or more.
